Synopsis
'Baban' is a sluggard who barely manages to bring home an income for the family from his job as a sweeper. In contrast, his prudent wife, Geeta, works as a housemaid to earn an extra buck. Though god-fearing, Baban's day-dreaming and drunken carousing continue to force the family to lead a hand to mouth existence...until one day when he accidentally uncovers an astounding stash of cash. As this streak of luck further fuels Baban's mindless ways, his wife Geeta wants to use this opportunity to secure her family's future, resulting in a rift in their relationship. His non-platonic feelings towards a young co-worker, Reshma further puts a strain on his marriage.
Hastening Baban's plunge back into misfortune is the local police inspector, Dhananjay Jadhav, who senses an easy win in tracing the source of Baban's unexplained riches.
Will Baban's luck stand by him one more time? Or will he find himself deserted by both his family and his newfound wealth? A final turn of events will surely leave everyone stunned!

Critical reception
Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 saying that, "Through the film, director Amol Gole aims to address the age-old question - how much is too much? He succeeds in that, a la the Icarus story, and in the process, also documents the changes wealth brings in a persons behaviour." Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 and said that, "The film is effective in its straightforward message. It portrays a carefree life affected by the sudden change in the situation. From the emotional and psychological perspective, the film scores." Suparna Thombare of Cinestaan gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 and said that, "Based on Uday Prakash's Hindi novel Dilli Ki Deewar, Nashibvaan is an entertaining film overall."
