==Plot== | |||
The plot revolves around the life of Raja (Yakub), a traffic constable. One day, while on his job, he gets distracted by the song being sung by Rani (Nigar Sultana), a street songstress, and leaves his traffic station. This led to a serious traffic accident and Raja is suspended from his job for a year without pay. Rani decides to help Raja and both of them find acting jobs at Gope Theater run by Natharam Gope (Gope). | |||
All seems to be going well with Raja and Rani until Shyam (Shyam), the son of a wealthy Jagirdar (landlord) enters the picture. While watching Rani on stage, Shyam falls in love with her. So begins the classic love triangle that emerges when two men are in love with the same woman. What complicates this love triangle is that Raja just cannot get himself to let Rani know that he is in love with her and seeking more than a friendship. Further complicating this love triangle is that Shyam is already betrothed to Purnima (Purnima) and his love for Rani does not sit well with her. The film progresses with the resolution of the conflicts that arise in this complex love triangle. | |||
