== Plot ==

Lalita catches the eye of JB and he immediately falls in love with her and decides that he must have her. Her uncle Madhi arranges for them to get married but he is only doing this because JB is paying him to. When she refuses the matrimonial alliance, JB kidnaps her and keeps her at his home until the day of the wedding. She is literally watched over by JB every day in case she tries to escape. On the day of the wedding, Lalita faints and uses this to escape. She also moves her mother away and barely escapes JB who assumes that she has been killed after he saw her being hit by a car. In fact, Lalita swapped her wedding attire with another woman, so the lady that JB saw being hit by the car was not Lalita.

Lalita escapes the city and meets Raj who at first she uses as a cover but they both fall in love with each other. She uses the name Shikha instead of her name. Raj's grandfather, Rai Saheb is happy that his grandson wants to marry Shikha and he arranges their wedding. Unfortunately, JB finds out that Lalita is still alive through her mother and quickly traces her. JB tells Raj and his grandfather who Lalita really is with the help of her devious uncle. Lalita is taken away and is forced to be a dutiful wife, which in JB's terms means that she has to stay with him forever. In the end Raj kills JB when the latter trying to kill Lalita and both Raj and Lalita get married and they live happily ever after.
