This photograph shows Malay actors Udo Omar and Ahmad Nisfu on the set of the Shaw Brothers film 'Nasib Si Labu Labi' (Labu and Labi’s Luck), directed by P. Ramlee. In the film, Haji Bakhil loses his will to live when his wife dies. This changes when he meets Murniyati, a teacher at a nearby orphanage. At the same time, Haji Bakhil’s driver (Labu) and his cook (Labi) find out that they have been in love with the same woman, Manisah, Haji Bakhil’s daughter.
