Plot

The film begins with a thief Shankar that coerces his elder son Ram into the craft eclipsing his future. Knowing it, his wife Gauri discards the children when Shankar withholds the younger one Shyam. Years roll by, and Gauri with her hardship molds Ram as a fine man. He gets married to a wise woman Seeta, they live merry, and Seeta gets pregnant. Shyam grows into a master of pickpocketing but Shankar as reformed makes him desert the profession. Once, Shyam rescues a millionaire Seth Biharilal from the burglars and falls for his daughter Geeta. Meanwhile, in a dispute, Ram losses his job. As a result, his family starves which leads to the death of Seeta giving birth to a baby boy Raju. Devastated Ram turns to daredevil gangster Michael, and hits the jackpot but falsifies his mother by hiding the fact. He melds with a kingpin Vikram and earns an enemy Ranjeet. In an international deal, Ram is apprehended and penalized. Thus, Gauri learns the true shade of Ram and renounces him too. However, Raju gets distressed by Ram. Further, he meets with an accident when Shyam saves him and also pretends to his father because of his condition. Now, Shyam accommodates them and Gauri is surprised to see Shankar and they reunite. Ram again changes his attire as Shantilal Shah whereas Shyam is on the hunt for him. Then, a brawl erupts which cools with Gauri’s intervention. Here, Ram is ecstatic to get back to his family but he is unable to bear their hatred. Eventually, Ranjeet abducts Raju. At last, Ram & Shyam cease him and protects Raju. Finally, the movie ends with Ram surrendering to the Police and acquiring the forgiveness of his mother.
