==Plot==
Ramprasad Sharma has two step brothers – Jagdish and Kundan. Kundan is a fine mechanic while Jagdish is well educated. Jagdish and his wife Pinky inform Ramprasad that they want to build a factory in Mumbai. His wife claims that she can easily get a loan of a considerable amount from the bank where her uncle works as a manager but she demands Ramprasad’s house as the mortgage. A naive and kind person, Ramprasad agrees to their proposal but Kundan objects it. Out of agitation Ramprasad banishes him. Kundan arrives Mumbai and starts working as a motor mechanic. Baanke comes to Vidya, Kundan’s love interest and lies to her that he has been there to take her to Kundan in Mumbai. Vidya believes him and leaves with him for Mumbai where she is hosted in a well furnished house. Soon she discovers to her horror that she has been trapped by a gang of ruffians led by Seth Chandan Bal who intend to rape her. She runs away and coincidentally meets Kundan on her way, who saves her from those ruffians. Later, they were married. Pinky insults Ramprasad and Laxmi, his wife, and they leave their house to find resort to somewhere else. They eventually come to Kundan’s house. Kundan is flooded with joy to have met them after a long time. Baanke misguides Pinky and takes her to Seth Chandan Bal’s trap where she gets molested by those ruffians. Fortunately Kundan and Jagdish arrive to save her. The family reunites.
