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

Rich playboy Anupam Verma (Dharmendra) loves flirting and romancing with girls, but as far as marriage is concerned, he has vowed to marry his dream girl, someone like the painting of the girl he once brought from a roadside shop. Anupam lives at his palatial house with Daima (Lalita Pawar), Anupam's nurse maid, and now the matron of the house. Luckily, on a fine day he actually came face to face with his dream girl (Hema Mailini). The face of the painting is not made of colors now, but with flesh. An excited and astonished Anup rushed to her and told her about his feelings. But his dream girl, to his great shock, stole his money (from a briefcase inside Anup's car) and ran away!!! Greatly shaken Anupam now promises to himself to find the girl at any cost, and there is only one clue for finding her, the shop from where he brought the painting. That day Anup was going to meet Khanna for a business deal that was set up by his brother Prem. But due to chasing his dream girl, Anup never made it to the meeting, and Khanna believes that Prem betrayed him. Dream girl's real name is Sapna (Hema Malini) who runs an orphanage & steals from the rich, like Anup, to support her brood. One of her children, Chintoo, is a painter, who made a portrait & sold it to a vendor where Anup bought it. Sapna has a brother, Chandu (Asrani) who supports her in this noble cause. Prem Verma (Prem Chopra) is Anup's cousin brother & has got a girl named Roopa pregnant and forces her to leave the child at Sapna's orphanage. Prem also has debts with a loan shark Khanna, who wants to partner with Anup. Prem has promised to deliver Anup to Khanna in exchange of the debts. Prem wants Anup to sign on the partnership documents with Khanna. The company accountant (S. N. Banerjee) tells Anup that Khanna is selling Anup's goods to multiple parties even without having the goods in possession. So, if Anup signs the deal, the company will not be able to deliver the goods, and it will cost them Rs 8 Lakhs in losses. Anup confronts Prem, but still loves Prem & continues to support him without the knowledge of his grandfather Ashok Verma (Ashok Kumar). Prem is the son of Ashok's daughter, while Anup is Ashok's grandson. Anup sees meeting his dream girl as a good sign, as that prevented him from signing the partnership documents and causing a huge loss to the company. Sapna and Chandu team up to scam rich people out of their money to support the orphanage. Sapna poses as an unmarried mother (with Roopa's baby) and interrupts the wedding to claim that the groom is the father. The groom's father (D. K. Sapru) wants to pay off Sapna, but their family friend Colonel (Satyendra Kapoor) wants the groom to marry Sapna instead. This prompts Sapna and Chandu to run away, and to avoid detection by the police, Chandu hides the kid in a car. The car belongs to Anup, who unknowingly brings the baby home. Chandu and Sapna follow and pose as saints to get the baby back. They claim that the boy is an incarnation of the Lord. They distract Anup and Daima and escape with the baby. Sapna is in financial difficulty & decides to allow adoption of kids to survive. She even gives away Chintoo to Dr Kapoor (Ramesh Deo) (who lives in America and claims that Chintoo's disability can be cured with proper treatment in the US), but then can't see the kids being all sad as one of them is given away. She goes & gets Chintoo back. Ashok admonishes Anup for supporting Prem even when he knows of Prem's association with his hooligan friends. He is also sick of Anup's womanizing ways & wants to marry him off. Anup says he is in love & Ashok wants to meet the girl. Anup meets Sapna when she tries to swindle him again with the car hitting the pram trick. But this time Anup catches her red handed & gets her to pose as Princess Sapna, & his girlfriend in front of Ashok. Ashok is instantly fond of Sapna & refuses for her to leave the house. Now Chandu is caught by Colonel whom they duped earlier & is handed over to police. There is no one at home to care for the kids. The kids wander the streets to find Sapna & finally locate her. But Sapna is forced to refuse them due to the fear of disappointing Ashok & the money promised by Anup, which can pay for the well-being of all the kids. But Anup finds out the truth & helps to bail out Chandu & takes care of the kids. When Sapna finds out, she loves Anup. But Prem also finds Sapna's real identity. He tries to blackmail Sapna for money, but she refuses to play along, even though Prem knows that Sapna was once a call girl by the name of Champabai. Prem reveals the truth at the engagement party for Anup & Sapna. Ashok is furious but finds that Sapna has already left the house leaving a letter behind. Ashok refuses to allow Anup to marry Sapna, but his mind is made. Then Daima reveals that Ashok's son didn't have a son, he had a daughter before both husband and wife died in an accident. Daima wanted to save the wealth from going to Prem's evil dad, so gave the daughter to a woman named Ratna & brought Anup from an orphanage. Prem knows this Ratna & immediately connects that Sapna is Ashok's real granddaughter. Prem finds the real Ratna & pays her to identify Roopa (Alka) as the granddaughter. He then kidnaps Ratna, Sapna & the kids & plans to kill them all to remove all proof against Roopa. But Anup follows & rescues them. Ratna accepts the truth in front of Ashok. He accepts Sapna & her entire brood & marries her off to Anup.
