Though there were a lot of them, no one looked out of place. Director Raj Sippy handled the characters with expertise. Satte Pe Satta had right doses of humour, music and action. But all's well that ends well as Babu undergoes a change of heart andВ finds love with the very lady he was sent to kill. He replaces Bachchan with aВ lookalike, BabuВ (Amitabh again). This gives Khan an idea as to how he can kill Ranjita. The desperate, lovelorn brothers kidnap the girls one night. Her uncle, Amjad Khan, wants to kill her and inherit her wealth. These girls have just one job - to look afterВ Ranjeeta, who can't walk and isВ dependent on a wheelchair. The other brothers fall for some girls they spot on a beach. After a lot of drama, the brothers accept her and, more importantly, she accepts them. They find love and support in the form of Hema Malini's character Indu who is Ravi's (Bachchan) lady love. Filthy, ill-mannered and unsophisticated are words that would best describe them. The story revolves around seven brothers (Bachchan, Sudhir, Indrajeet, Kanwaljeet, Shakti Kapoor, Paintal and Sachin) who live in a farmhouse and are ignorant about the rest of the world.

Satte Pe Satta's cast includedВ the stars of the decade: Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini and Amjad Khan, with an able supporting cast.

It was a clear drift from the Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Basu Chatterjee style of comedies that were subtler and had smaller budgets.

Released in 1982, Satte Pe Satta was a musical comedy in a truly commercial format.
