What happens

Kasidre Kailasa () is a 1971 Indian Kannada-language film directed and produced by K. Janakiram. The film stars Rajkumar, Udaykumar, Vanisri and Pandari Bai. The musical score was composed by Satyam. The film was remade in Hindi in 1976 as Sabse Bada Rupaiya, directed by S. Ramanathan, the brother of Kannada actor Shivaram. The 2021 Kannada film 1980 features a sequence where this movie is being telecast on the television. A dialogue by Udaykumar to Rajkumar, advertising not to blindly trust one's loved ones without understanding their intentions, is used as a technique of foreshadowing. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
