Plot

The movie starts with Krishna talking to Shanti while he receives a letter and then realizes he is late and must be leaving to meet someone, he then reaches a house and sees Gopal on his deathbed, and Gopal goes into a flashback. This story is about three childhood best friends: Krishna, Radha and Gopal (an orphan). Krishna and Radha are in love, Gopal loves Radha. Gopal goes to earn and become financially strong so that on his return, he can marry Radha, meanwhile when Gopal is gone, Krishna and Radha get involved in an intimate relationship, which results in Radha getting pregnant. Then Gopal returns to Radha's life. Radha, who is still in love with Krishna, is unable to express her feelings about Krishna to Gopal. Circumstances become favorable for Gopal and he succeeds in marrying Radha, and subsequently, Radha gives birth to a baby girl, Shanti (Krishna's child). Radha, feeling guilty, leaves Shanti with Gopal (who thinks Shanti is his daughter) and returns to her father's house. Later Radha attempts suicide by jumping into a river but fails; caught by the police, they keep her under their supervision. Gopal gets to know where she is and comes to meet Radha, Radha tells Gopal that she loved Krishna and Shanti is Krishna's daughter. Gopal breaks down and says that everything will be alright. He makes his Will and hands over Shanti to Krishna, her biological father with a letter saying that he is going away. Gopal also decides to give all his wealth to Shanti along with the divorce papers thus setting Radha free from this relationship so that she can live her life the way she wants. Gopal then goes away onto a ship. Back to the future, elderly Gopal lying on the bed meets Krishna and says he just wanted to meet Krishna once as his death was near. Gopal then dies. Krishna then discloses to his daughter that years ago the night when Gopal left, Radha went to an Ashram leaving everyone, to spend the rest of her life there and the letter that Krishna received the other day said that Radha had died.
