Mahesh Dattani’s Hasmukh Saab Ki Wasihat (2015)

Hasmukh Mehta loves power. He exercises power over his family and even those who work under him in his business empire. His son Ajit Mehta offers a weak foil to Hasmukh's assertive behaviour. His wife Sonal is the butt of his jokes and an easy target for his blame games. Ajit's wife, Preeti copes with her father's insufferable behaviour by simply giving in. All are waiting for the day the old man will die and leave his vast fortunes to them. He does die, but he does not leave his fortunes to them. Not only that he uses his money as a bait to make them act according to his will, literally ruling them from his grave through a convoluted will that has them doing exactly what he wants them to do. Through his will,he instructs his mistress Kiran Jhaveri to live with his family, using her as a proxy for him, while he enjoys his power even as a ghost! But even the most perfect of plans don't always go the way they are supposed to. Kiran comes with her own bag of surprises and turns the family around with her intelligence and experience, both as a business executive and as a woman of substance. Even Kiran, with all her experience is in for a surprise. A surprise that will eventually unite the women against the man who set out to rule them forever.
