Plot
[edit]Mohan Kumar S. Chaudhary is a student who is a devout worshiper of Hanuman and vows celibacy. Neena, his classmate, quite likes his nobleness. Once, they move to a picnic, where Mohan unintentionally misplaces her locket. So, remorsefully, he bestows his pendant. Here, his naughty mates take a photograph and forge a love letter to Neena. Raisaheb Surajbhan Chaudhary, his father's domineer, is annoyed by Mohan's behavior. Hence, he plans to knit Mohan with Mala, the daughter of Thakur Chandan Singh, the beau to Mohan's friend Jugal Kishore. So, Mohan swaps Jugal on his behalf, and they are coupled up. Meanwhile, Neena squeezes out her love when Mohan scorns it, and she flounces out, vowing to splice him. After a while, as a flabbergast, Neena arrives at Raisahib's residence with a baby, claiming Mohan's wife. Mohan rushes when she shows the love letter & pendant as proof of residency. Mohan tries to expose her but fails. Now, Raisaheb & his wife Raj Laxmi decide to espouse them officially when they call their elder Rajkumar & his wife. Then, Rajkumar recognizes Neena also intimidates, which Mohan overhears and seeks for truth, where Neena spins back. Rajkumar betrayed her elder sister Geeta, who died giving birth to this kid. Before passing, Geeta takes a word from Neena to make the child legitimate, which is why she made the play. At last, Rajkumar reforms when Neena is about to quit. Mohan dedicates his celibacy to her. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Mohan & Neena.
