During the Hindu-Muslim riots, Kamla's family got scattered. Her two sons Krishna and Gopal became Sunderlal (being adopted by a Punjabi man) and Arup (a lawyer) respectively. Sunderlal fought for the rights of the poor against their exploitation by the men of Shambuprasad, the son of a rich but corrupt person Kaliprasad. So, Kaliprasad and Shambuprasad killed the Punjabi man and the blame was put on Sunderlal. Sunderlal was arrested. His lover Neena fell into the hands of Kaliprasad. When Sunderlal was freed he did not seek revenge but wanted to start life in a new way. Yet, he was put into the dock once again due to a false charge of drugs. The police in charge of the case Bikash was aware of Sunderlal's innocence and proved this with help from Neena. Sunderlal aka Krishna met Gopal alias Arup, his long lost brother, who was fighting the court case on behalf of Kaliprasad. Bikash helped the scattered family to reunite. They were then able to lead a normal and happy life together.
