Alok (Amol Palekar) is the only son of millionaire Mrs. Karuna Chaudhari (Veena). For the past few years he was a mental case. However, he recovered after a hard work by Dr. Sen (Iftekhar). Alok has recently recovered and is leading a normal life. Karuna and her brother Dilip Thakur (Dinesh Thakur), decide to get him married but the doctor says that the girls whom Alok marries should completely dissolve her personality into Alok because such people become quite possessive after treatment. Karuna was married to Ranjeet. But before marriage, Anupam (Shreeram Lagoo) was in love with Karuna, but her father refused her wedding to Anupam as their horoscopes didn't match. Ranjeet later appointed Anupam as Director in their firm, and that's when Ranjeet found that Anupam and Karuna loved each other from before their wedding. Ranjeet was heartbroken and commits suicide to free Karuna. But Karuna never married Anupam. His suicide made Alok mentally unstable. While Dilip was at the asylum to collect Alok, he runs out of the town (in Dilip's car) and goes to Bombay (by train, which he catches at the train station). Keeping in mind that he will not return with his Uncle whom he recognizes, Karuna sends her new manager, Mr. Siddharth (Parikshit Sahni), to bring him back home. Siddarth had replaced the ex-manager Gupta (Utpal Dutt), who was very cruel and unreasonable with the workers of the factory. He blames the workers if the machines break down and uses their salaries to fix and repair them. Siddharth was a senior supervisor and was not afraid to stand up to Gupta against his dictatorship. Karuna likes Siddharth's approach and fires Gupta. She asks Siddharth to take over as the manager of the factory as he is kind and fair to the workers. Meeta is Karuna's assistant and became close with Siddharth after he became the manager. slowly Meeta and Siddharth fall in love with each other. Siddharth goes to Bombay and finds Alok at his regular hotel. Alok was looking to move from a double room into a single room (as the double room is too expensive) and Siddharth offers to share the double room with Alok. Alok and Siddharth become friends, and soon Alok gets very possessive about Siddharth. He wants Siddharth to be with him always and offers to pay him rs 2500 per month for the same. Siddharth asks where Alok will get that kind of money and that's when Alok reveals his true identity to Siddharth. He says he doesn't like going back home, as he gets sick there. Siddharth tells Alok that he has been sent by Karuna to bring Alok back home. This is the only way Siddharth and Alok can be together. Meanwhile, Alok gets attached with Siddharth so much that he does not want him to leave for just a minute and so with his friend, Meeta (Rameshwari). Meeta is an orphan brought up by Mrs. Karuna. Alok falls in love with Meeta and wants to marry her. Meeta is very kind of Mrs. Karuna and does not want to hurt her by refusing to marry Alok but she loves Siddharth. Siddharth also tells her to sacrifice her love for the sake of her loyalty to Karuna. Meeta gets engaged with Alok and Siddharth leaves the town after giving resignation. Now Mr Gupta finds his opportunity and starts indicating to Alok that there was something going on between Meeta and Siddharth. Gupta tells Alok that Meeta spent an entire evening with Siddharth before leaving, and even produces her handkerchief as evidence of the same. Alok recalls Siddharth to work by accusing him of accounting fraud at the company. Siddharth is outraged and returns. Alok now taunts Meeta and Siddharth and wants them to admit to their relationship. He leaves town for a few days, yet stays secretly to observe what Meeta and Siddharth do. Alok hears Meeta profess her love to Siddharth, when they think they are alone. Alok tries to kill Siddharth, but at the last moment back off as he cannot kill his friend. Siddharth confronts Alok that he tried to kill him. Siddharth wants to leave, but Alok wont tell him till Siddharth tells him about the extent of his relationship with Meeta. When Siddharth refuses to comply, Alok goes mad with outrage. He kills Siddharth's dog in retaliation. It is clear that he is mentally unstable again. Alok tries to kill Meeta by pressing her neck, but she manages to escape. Meeta decides to leave town and joins Siddharth in Bombay. Alok finds out that the duo are together in Bombay. Alok calls Siddharth as a friend and says that he got blind with jealousy. He begs Siddharth and Meeta to return, as Mrs Karuna loves Meeta very dearly. Siddharth decides to go back alone. But Alok has every intention to ensure that Siddharth cant get Meeta, if he cant get her. Alok maintains a diary, and Mr Gupta knows where he keeps the diary. When Siddharth arrives, Alok gives him all the jewels that Mrs Karuna had kept as a wedding gift for Meeta and Alok's wedding. Alok says that Mrs Karuna knew about Meeta marrying Siddharth and wanted her to have the jewels none-the-less. Siddharth agrees to take the jewels When putting into the briefcase, Siddharth finds that Alok had kept a gun in it for Sid's safety. Siddharth takes the gun and returns to Alok. But now the gun has his fingerprints on it. After Siddharth leaves, Alok takes the gun (carefully wrapped in a handkerchief) and shoots himself, before throwing the cloth in the fire. Mr Gupta is the first inside the room and sees the burning handkerchief. Alok dies. Meeta and Siddharth get married, when police arrives and arrests him. The case reaches court, where Anupam defends Siddharth, while Dilip is the prosecuting lawyer. All the evidence is against Siddharth, and he is found guilty, and sentenced to death. Just a few days before his hanging, Dr Sen returns from a trip to Europe and tells the jailer that he knew Alok and he was still very mentally fragile. But nobody can stop the hanging unless there is any fresh evidence in the case. As a last resort, Anupam and Meeta approach Mrs Karuna. Dr Sen knew that Alok maintained a diary, and they want Mrs Karuna to help them find the diary. KAruna agrees after Anupam convinces her that Meeta is her daughter and Siddharth is like her son and is innocent. Mr Gupta overhears this and tries to burn the diary. But Meeta and Anupam reach in time and stop Mr Gupta and recover the diary. They manage to use the evidence to issue Governor's orders to stop the hanging, just in the nick of time. Meeta and Siddharth are reunited
