Plot
Gopi is a skating instructor and a tourist guide. He meets Radha, falls in love, makes love and marries her while on vacation. Later, he learns that Radha's father is a millionaire and he disdains Gopi. Radha's father and their relatives manipulate the situation in such a manner that it appears to him that Radha regrets marrying Gopi and has buyer's remorse.

He leaves back to the hill station taking his son only to learn that his son has polio and cannot even walk. Radha meanwhile assumes that Gopi betrayed her and her son is dead. Whether or not they reunite forms the rest of the dramatic story.
