Wealthy Lata refuses to obey her widower father's instructions to marry equally wealthy Rajan, who is the second son of Sikander Lal Thakkar, her dad's business partner. She runs away from home, and shortly thereafter, her father locates her living with a truck-driver, Vishwa Pratap, and his pretty sister, Lakshmi. She refuses to return home.
