Rakhi is a family drama movie released in 1962 directed by A. Bhimsingh. The film features Ashok Kumar, Waheeda Rehman, and Pradeep Kumar as lead characters. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Rakhi (played by Waheeda Rehman) who was raised by her elder brother Srikant (played by Ashok Kumar) after their parents' death. Rakhi is a kind-hearted and loving girl who is dedicated to her family and especially her brother. As the story progresses, Rakhi grows up and falls in love with a young man named Madhu (played by Pradeep Kumar). However, before she can confess her feelings to him, Madhu has to leave for London to study medicine.

In London, Madhu falls in love with a British woman named Joanna (played by Sulochana Latkar) and decides to marry her. However, after his return to India, he realizes that he still loves Rakhi and is torn between his love for her and his commitment to Joanna. Meanwhile, Rakhi faces her own challenges as her brother Srikant falls ill and needs a costly operation. She decides to sell her jewelry to help pay for the surgery, but when Madhu's father (played by Manmohan Krishna) finds out about her sacrifices, he decides to help fund the operation.

The movie deals with various themes such as family values, sacrifice, and the importance of relationships. The performances of all the actors are noteworthy, especially Ashok Kumar, who delivers a powerful performance as Rakhi's brother Srikant. Waheeda Rehman is also impressive as the innocent and selfless Rakhi, and her chemistry with Pradeep Kumar is endearing.

The music of the movie, composed by Ravi, is also an important aspect of the film. The songs "Aaye Bahar Banke Lubha Kar Chale Gaye" and "Aaj Kyun Humse Parda Hai" are particularly memorable and have become classics over time.

Overall, Rakhi is a heartwarming and emotional film that showcases the importance of family and selflessness. Despite its age, the movie still manages to resonate with audiences today, and its message about the value of relationships is timeless.
