Anand Ashram 1977

Dr Amaresh lives with his wealthy father, a Thakur Ashok Kumar, in a small Indian town. Although the Thakur would prefer Amaresh to marry a woman from a similarly wealthy family, Amaresh has fallen in love with a poor woman named Asha Sharmila Tagore and wishes to marry her. The Thakur is displeased and orders Amaresh to leave the house and never return. A few months later, the Thakur’s employee Girdhari informs him that he has found an abandoned child by the riverbank and would like to adopt him. Initially, the Thakur does not want anything to do with the child, but when he sees him for the first time, he lets Girdhari have his way.

Years later, the young Samaresh has grown up under the care of Girdhari and the Thakur, and travels abroad to study medicine. Upon his return, he decides to work for a chemical company. His travels take him to meet a beautiful woman named Sumita, her father, and an elderly man named Doctor Prakash Rakesh Roshan. Samaresh is perturbed by this doctor, who seems to know him very well and wants him to leave his job at the chemical company and start practising medicine in the small town where they live. What Samaresh does not know is that this doctor is his biological father, Amaresh. Neither of them knows what steps the Thakur will take when he finds out that Samaresh is his grandson.
