This second instalment sees the plot shift from Labu Labi themselves and more to Haji Bakhil who has just lost his wife and rediscovers love with a younger woman. Whilst the first focused on Haji Bakhil's sheer "cruelty", this second movie shows the humane part of him. He's still very stingy, thus his name, Bakhil (which means 'stingy' in Malay) but we get entertained by his absurd antics. We also see Labu and Labi engage in their relentless tussle for the affections of Manisah who still has no idea how they both feel about her.
It's not as hilarious as the first but is still largely entertaining.
