Shobha falls in love with a wealthy man named Kumar, introduces him to her family, gets their approval and gets married. Shortly thereafter she disappears, and the Kumar family realize that Shobha has been abducted by her husband, who belongs to a gang of of women-kidnappers.
Sushil is determined to find her whereabouts, gets a job with the Police as a Sub-Inspector, does his work honestly and diligently and is publicly honored.
