When Kumar finds out, he goes to Asha's uncle, Ashok Verma ([[Om Prakash]]) and demands Asha's hand in marriage. When he refuses, Kumar plots to kill him. The manner in which Kumar plans and executes the murder is regarded as an immensely brilliant and engaging sequence. Kumar boards and exits various modes of transportation to avoid any possibilities of suspicion by creating an alibi. He finally kills Ashok Verma and frames Rajeshwar in the hope of winning Asha's love. But Asha still loves Rajeshwar, and believes in his innocence. She makes a promise to Kumar to stay with him forever, if he could get Rajeshwar released from his death sentence. Kumar realises that Rajeshwar will always remain Asha's love. He writes down his confession giving details of execution of his plan of murder, gives it to Rajeshwar and commits suicide.
