One day Jamuna (Meenakshi Sheshadri) jumps into his truck to save herself from a goon. Ganga is forced to stop the truck due to a road block. When it starts raining, Ganga ends up going to a nearby lodge to take shelter, pretending he and Jamuna are a couple. The next day, when the goon returns to take Jamuna away forcibly, Ganga gets into a fight with him. Ganga is arrested for beating up the Thakur’s son and jailed for two years.
When he returns, the Thakur sends his aides to kill him. A blast takes place at the bridge and Jamuna falls into the river along with her child. Ganga saves his child but cannot find Jamuna. Jamuna, who loses her memory from the fall, ends up reaching the home of singer Shankar (Mithun Chakraborty) who recognizes her from a qawwali performance she had performed and falls in love with her. Ganga takes help from Saraswati (Jaya Prada) to take care of his son and she ends up falling in love with him.
