What happens

Aas Paas (transl. Close to each other) is a 1981 Indian Hindi-language romance film directed by J. Om Prakash and starring Dharmendra, Hema Malini and Prem Chopra. The music was by Laxmikant–Pyarelal. The film begins with a dedication to the late singer Mohammed Rafi, announcing that his last recorded song was for this film. Director-producer J. Om Prakash included in Aas Paas (1981) another brief "Lucky Mascot" screen appearance of his grandson — future Hindi film superstar actor Hrithik Roshan, then age 7 — as the boy dancing in the song "Shehar Main Charcha Hai" who winks at Hema Malini and passes her a love note from Dharmendra.
