Plot

Malti (Rati Agnihotri), a young girl from a middle-class family meets Suresh Rai (Mithun Chakraborty), who is the son of a well-known lawyer Dayashankar Rai (Danny Denzongpa). After a brief romance Malti finds out that she is pregnant. When Suresh refuses to marry Malti and she decides against aborting the baby, her parents disown her. Malti decides to take Suresh to court. She is supported in this fight by Shakuntala (Rekha) a lawyer who works for woman's rights and has an illegitimate daughter from Dayashankar Rai. The case gets much publicity and public support as well. The Judge rules in Malti's favour but Malti refuses to marry Suresh and decides to raise the child as a single mother. In the meantime Shakuntala dies of a heart attack and Malti promises to take care of her daughter as well.

Years later, Suresh who is married to Jayshree (Ranjeeta) runs into Malti. It turns out that her son is a talented boy. It is time for Suresh to gracefully own up for his mistake.
