Vikas (Manoj Kumar) comes from a poor family, and is attending college so that he can complete his studies, get a job, and financially look after himself and his dad. He meets with wealthy Asha (Asha Parekh) at this college, and after a few misunderstandings, both fall in love. Vikas' dad passes away during exams and because Vikas leaves to attend the funeral, he is unable to complete his studies. Asha feels sorry for him and arranges to get him employed with her dad, unbeknownst to Vikas. Asha's dad wants her to get married to Ashwini (Pran), and he soon announces their engagement. Ashwini finds out that Asha is in love with Vikas, and arranges an accident for Vikas. Vikas survives the accident, but loses his eyesight. After this incident, Vikas does not want to burden himself on Asha, and strikes up a new friendship with Dr. Anjali (Simi Grewal). Meanwhile, Ashwini informs Asha that Vikas has died in the accident. Asha does not have any living hope after listening to the news of Vikas's death. Ashwini can not have that and goes Vikas and requests that he show Asha that he does not love her any more so that she will marry Ashwini. Vikas agrees and shows his affair with Dr. Anjali.
