Plot
[edit]The film begins in a village where Zamindar Kanta Prasad Gupta & his wife Sharda walk on a pilgrimage at Pashupatinath Temple in Nepal, where their son is lost in the milieu. As a result, Sharda becomes a lunatic, and to cure her, Zamindar approaches his poor peasant, Dinu, who has two sons, Mohan & Sohan. On the advice of an accountant, Munshi Ram Lal Zamindar adopts younger Sohan. Once on Diwali, Mohan proceeds to his sibling, who is incriminated as a thief when Dinu strikes him. So, he flees, and the distressed Dinu couple quits the village.
Years roll by and Sohan is reared as Arun and takes charge of the estate. He falls for the retired Major's daughter, Bharati, and the elders decide to knit them. Mohan backs as a doctor eagerly quests for his parents. Plus, he anxiously sets foot on his brother but is silent on Zamindar's pleadings. Following this, Zamindar & Sharda recover their long-lost son, Suraj, via a priest. Soon, Sharda's affection shifts, and she scorns Arun. So, he moves to find out the whereabouts of his parents. Parallelly, Dinu moves for Arun as his wife, Mamta, is terminally ill. However, knowing the status quo, he turns up. By then, Mamta died and devastated Dinu roams listlessly. Being unbeknownst, Arun associates with him and is cordial. In tandem, Zamindar learns the traitorousness of Suraj & Munshi, who purported to be his son. Indeed, his son dies long back by falling from the cliff when Sharda repents and rushes for Arun. Consequently, Arun meets with an accident and is admitted to Mohan's hospital when he recognizes Dinu. At last, Zamindar & Sharda land and ask forgiveness. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Arun & Bharati.
