Production

Inti Guttu is a remake of the Hindi film Munimji (1955), but differs in many respects: the hero disguises himself as an aged driver, unlike the original where he disguises as an accountant. An original creation to Inti Guttu was the patriarch’s sister, who was not present in the Hindi version. In Munimji, the woman whom the patriarch secretly married swaps her newly-born son with his deceased wife’s child, but in Inti Guttu, the sister’s husband interchanges the children.[7]
