Ravi (Amitabh) lives in a farmhouse with his 6 younger brothers who are named after every day of the week (Som, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukr , Shani and Ravi). Ravi has bought up his brothers on his own after their parent's death and this well-knit family has had no contact with the modern urban living and their living style is just shy of the way animals live!!! But what stands out the most here is their bond of love and their commitment for one another. The story takes a turn when Ravi falls head over heels in love with an uptown nurse Indu (Hema Malini). Ravi woos Indu and eventually they get married. But what Ravi has not told Indu is that he has such a big family of 6 brothers. Indu is shocked to see this big family on the day of her wedding and feels cheated that Ravi was not honest with her. However Indu forgives him and takes upon the responsibility of turning this uneducated and unruly family into an illustrious family. Then there are subsets of stories that follow and the movie becomes a treat to watch. Satte Pe Satta comprises of very funny situations and is filled with hilarious comedy all through. Perfect examples for the simple comedy in the movie are when Ravi opens his list of groceries and brushes the dust of the list, the fight scene between all brothers just before Indu arrives at the house, Ravi's innocent gesture of presenting Indu with a cantaloupe as his first present to her etc. It has a surprise element also with Amjad Khan's entrance into the movie. Amitabh excels and towers in his role as Ravi. He is simply too good. A perfect extravaganza for his fans. The famous scene with Amjad Khan "Mein Daroo Nahin Pita.." is nothing but exemplary. Hema Malini is very complementary. Among the brothers roles, Sachin, Satyajit, Shakti Kapoor stand out. Ranjeeta as usual is very pleasant. Amjad Khan's performance is excellent. The take home of the movie is it's theme which is "Family comes first".
