Plot

Neelu (Mumtaz) is a blind girl in a village. Sameer Rai (Dharmendra), an artist, spots her and wants to restore her eyesight as she lost it in an accident when she was bumped off by his father in her childhood. Sameer's mother wants him to marry Jugnu (Yogeeta Bali), but he has fallen in love with the blind girl. Jugnu and Sameer's mother persuades Neelu to play blind even after she regains her eyesight to dissuade Sameer from marrying a downtrodden village girl. They bring along a false husband of Neelu who carries her off into the clutches of Pratap (Prem Chopra), the illegitimate brother of Sameer. His love interest betrays him, and he is killed. His girlfriend and her dead husband, who is actually alive and playing possum to get insurance money, try to kill Neelu as she has witnessed Pratap's murder. Everything gets resolved in the final climax based on a novel of the same name. The film has many twists and turns.
