अनाड़ी (1959) के निर्देशक ऋषिकेश मुखर्जी थे और यह अपने दौर की एक यादगार कॉमेडी-ड्रामा फ़िल्म बनी। इस फ़िल्म में राज कपूर, नूतन, मोतीलाल और ललिता पवार मुख्य भूमिकाएँ निभा रहे थे। इस फ़िल्म में ललिता पवार ने अपनी प्रचलित छवि से अलग जाकर एक सकारात्मक किरदार निभाया था जबकि मोतीलाल का निभाया किरदार स्याह छवियाँ लिये था। इस फ़िल्म की हिन्दी में लोकप्रियता को देखकर इसका तमिल भाषा में पसमुम नेसमुम (1964) शीर्षक से और तुर्की में देरबदर (1960) और इनाई (1974) शीर्षक से रीमेक भी हुआ। फ़िल्म की कहानी राज कुमार (राज कपूर) नामक किरदार के इर्द-गिर्द घूमती है। राज एक खुद्दारी से भरा ईमानदार चित्रकार है, जिसकी ज़िन्दगी संघर्षों से भरी है। एक दिन एक खोया हुआ बटुआ लौटाने की नेकनीयती पर उसे बटुए के मालिक और शहर के रईस इंसान श्री रामनाथ (मोतीलाल) क्लर्क की नौकरी देते हैं। वहाँ राज को आशा (नूतन) से प्रेम हो जाता है। पहले वह समझता है कि आशा रामनाथ जी की नौकरानी है, लेकिन बाद में पता चलता है कि वह तो उनकी भतीजी है जिसका नाम आरती है। फिर एक दिन जब राज की दयालु मकान मालकिन मिसेज़ डी'सा (ललिता पवार) नकली दवाई खाकर चल बसती हैं तो राज पर उनकी हत्या का झूठा आरोप लगा दिया जाता है।...
