Plot

A talented artist (Rajesh Khanna) falls in love with a London-returned doctor, but his past creates problems for him. When that part of his past is resolved and he is to marry the girl he loves, he loses his eyesight in an accident and wounds up a prisoner of a cruel princess. He escapes, and is helped by another man, who nurtures and allows him to recuperate. When the artist returns home to find that the girl he wants to marry is engaged to the man who helped him recover. These songs are still popular: "Kitne arman, kitne sapne laya hoon main dekko na..."; "Diwana lekke aaya hai dil ka taraana, dekho kahin yaaron thukra na dena mera nazrana..."; "Diwana karke chodoge lagta hai yoon humko, sau bar kaha eh jane jahan yu pyar se tum dekka na karo..."; "O mere dil ke chain, chain aye mere dil ko dua kijiye..."; "Chala jata hoon kisiki dhoon me dadakte dil ke tarane liye..."; Written by Majrooh Sultanpuri
