So, he decides to aid his joint family containing his wife Shobha, a 5-year-old daughter, the mother Janki, 3 sisters & 2 brothers. Hence, he moves to the city for a job but fails. Disparate Mohan, fortunately, meets his childhood mate Manohar, who makes his acquaintance with tycoon Kamalrai Mansukh Lal and leaves abroad. Rai offers him a job, provided he is single. Owing to necessity, Mohan claims to be solitary.
Meanwhile, Rai's daughter Radha, a heart patient, is back from a foreign country. Radha feels relief in Mohan's breezy company and gradually recoups her when she falls for him. Now, Mohan is under a dichotomy as he cannot reveal the truth. Moreover, Mohan's virago sister, Durga, expels the family, and they land in the city. Accidentally, Mohan spots and accommodates them at Manohar's house. Eventually, Durga & her husband Ramadas also arrive and, by mischief, take shelter at Sunder's residence, one that aspires to knit Radha. After a while, they reform, and Mohan retrieves them.
Destiny befriends Radha & Shobha when Mohan leads a dual life and daringly tries to avoid all the parties. Then, Rai decides to splice Radha with Mohan, but Mohan denies betrayal. Being aware of it, Shobha collapses, and the family accuses Mohan when he decides to confess his blunder. Parallelly, Sundar envies abducting Radha when Mohan rescues and divulges the actuality to her. Initially, she misconstrues him, but later, she understands his virtue and affirms it to Rai.
