Bungling Indian actor Hrundi V. Bakshi (Peter Sellers) is brought to Hollywood to star in the multi million dollar epic SON OF DUNGA DIN, a production he quite literally reduces to a shambles. Studio Head Fred Clutterbuck wants Bakshi out of Hollywood. Unfortunately for Clutterback, his dozy secretary sends Bakshi an invitation to a lavish party-to be held at Clutterback's house. At the party, a series of mishaps follow-all triggered by the disaster-prone Bakshi, including knocking a servant through a plate glass window and sliding off the roof into the swimming pool.
But the worst disaster occurs when Clutterback's daughter and her college chums arrive leading a baby elephant, painted in psychedelic colours. Bakshi is shocked that an elephant so revered in his country, should be treated this way and talks the students into washing the animal in one of the indoor pools. What happens next? Well, you have to see it to believe it!
