Spoilers ahead

The film opens with a timeless parable that evokes Adam and Eve, casting Ranjeet Chhadha [Sanjeev Kumar] as Adam, Sharda Chhadha [Vidya Sinha] as Eve, and Nirmala Deshpande [Ranjeeta Kaur] as the tempting apple. A newly hired employee who commutes by bicycle, Ranjeet’s modest job hints at a simple, steady life. That bicycle brings him into contact with Sharda when they collide, her bike gets badly damaged, and he dutifully drops her off. That same evening, he attends the wedding of his friend Harish, where Sharda’s presence in the same colony becomes a spark. Their paths cross, and from that moment love blooms, cementing a quick and lasting marriage between them.
