MORNING WALK begins as a good story of family values but ends up showcasing a lost case of morality and misplaced family values.The opening scene shows Professor Joy Mohan (Anupam Kher) and his morning walk partner having a chat in Kolkata. From this conversation, you learn that the professor is a widower and has a son (Rajit Kapoor)who lives in Mumbai.His relationship with his son is strained. During the conversation, professor suffers from a heart attack and son rushes to Kolkata to be at his side. Three months later, Professor comes to Mumbai to live with his son.
They live in an apartment given by Rajit's company. They go house-hunting,finally the find a place they like and only the final formalities have to be done. Dad has to sell his house in Kolkata, which will fetch him Rs 65 lakhs.
Everything is going on fine up until now, until he runs into Sharmila Tagore in the park teaching yoga to her students. It appears that she was his student in college. Her son is studying in the US and her daughter (Anjali, played by Nargis), whom she introduces to him, wants to go to the US for further studies. There are few scenes from the flashback to highlight their college days.
The daughter he has been introduced to by Sharmila Tagore is his. She does not get her scholarship to go to the US so he says ''I will help my daughter get to the US.'' . He says that he wants his grandchild to know that he has done nothing wrong! That is why he wants her around to hear his confession even though her parents think otherwise.
