Synopsis:
Jewel Thief is a classic, attractive enough for many repeat watches. A series of high profile jewel thefts have put the city on edge, and sweet-natured Vinay (Dev Anand) has the misfortune of being mistaken for the look-alike culprit Amar, as Vinay is stuck with Anjali’s (the jewellery shope owner’s daughter) attraction, Amar’s jilted fiancée, Shalin (Vyjayantimala), accuses Vinay of breaking her heart. To get to the bottom of the mystery, Vinay poses as the jewel thief to leam his opponent’s next move and tangles with a bevy of beautiful, jewel-spangled women eager for love including the incomparable Helen whose nigh-club dance in costume with jewel-dripping tights and a rooster tail should simply not be missed.
