Plot
[edit]Prem Mehra is a wealthy, kind-hearted, and generous man who lives in a palatial home with his wife, Laxmi, a daughter, and two sons, Vijay and Ravi. Dharamdas is a foe of Prem, and he involves gangster and an employee of Prem's (accountant) to steal some priceless diamonds from his safe, thereby implicating Prem in the theft, and making him lose all his wealth and estate. Prem and his family re-locate to live with their devoted and loyal employee, Rahim. Vijay gets a job as a news-reporter, while Ravi continues with his studies. Prem's daughter's marriage is on the rocks as he now cannot afford to pay the dowry sum of seven lakhs rupees. Prem has a stroke that leaves him paralysed. Radha is Vijay's co-worker, both fall in love and seek their respective families' blessings so that they can marry. But before they can get married, Vijay suddenly breaks all ties with Radha and instead marries Naina, the only daughter of Shraddha, his boss, thus making it clear to his family and Radha that he has married a girl for wealth. But actually Vijay marries Naina in exchange for 7 lakhs rupees which he uses to marry off his sister. Ravi too wants to marry Lalita - who is none other than Dharamdas' daughter. Ravi leaves his family and acts as a confidante of Dharamdas but eventually reveals that he was acting all along to help prove his father innocent. In the climax, the goon (Shakti Kapoor) kills Naina who, before her death, asks Radha and Vijay to get married. Ravi marries Lalita, Prem Mehra is proven innocent and the family is united again.
