Their mom Shanti rejects Sapna. Vijay tries to help Vicky but too falls in love with Sapna who instead develops love for Vijay also.

The boys talk: both want Sapna. Vicky thinks Vijay supports his pursuit (Sapna). Shanti later asks Gurdas to take Sapna to Bombay or get fired. He storms off with her to the station but as Vicky attempts suicide if Shanti doesn't allow him to marry Sapna, Shanti finally accepts her. Sapna returns.
