Movie Plot

Rai Bahadur Jagdish Prasad (Murad) is a royal man who owns many estates. He lives with his marriageable daughter, Asha Prasad (Babita), and a younger brother Daljit Prasad (Pran), who has lost money in gambling and needs immediate capital to return the loan.

Asha (Babita) goes for a Europ tour on a ship and meets Anand (Dharmendra) as her co-passenger. Initially, she does not like Anand due to some misunderstanding. However, Asha soon falls in love with Anand and learns he is a CBI Officer.

In the meantime, Daljit makes a foolproof plan to kill his brother, Rai Bahadur, with his friend Bihari (Arjun Hingorani), and consequently, Rai Bahadur dies in a road accident.

Asha returns from Europe after hearing the news of the sudden demise of her father. Lata (Ashoo), the best friend of Asha, visits her home. Daljit teases her, and Lata complains about it to Asha, who ignores it since she believes her uncle is a good man.

Planning of another murder by Daljit

Police Superintendant (Hari Shivdasani) asks Anand (Dharmendra) to investigate the accident case of Rai Bahadur because he smells a rat.

On the other hand, Daljit and Bihari plan to kill Asha in a manner that looks like a natural death. However, their plan fails when  Anand saves Asha.

Twist in the story

One day, Lata visits Asha, and they plan to stay together for a day or two. At night Daljit enters the house and tries to molest Lata. Asha objects to it and manages to escape from there with Lata.

Both Lata and Asha reach Khadala Farmhouse belonging to Asha and decide to stay there at night. However, Daljit also visits there and once again tries to molest Lata.

Asha vehemently opposes her uncle, and a fight ensues. Daljit takes out his revolver and tries to shoot Lata. However, the situation takes a U-turn, and Asha shoots her uncle to die.

Baffled, Lata and Asha put the body in a big box and drew the same in a deep pond in Khadala. The situation gets more complicated when Asha starts witnessing the ghost of her uncle Daljit.

On the other hand, Anand discovers that Daljit has killed his brother Rai Bahadur and asks the whereabouts of Daljit from Asha.
