Plot

Dushyant Kumar Mehra promises his uncle Professor Vishwamitra who runs an association of confirmed single men that he will remain single forever. His stance is a cause for concern for his parents, Kalidas Mehra and Suman Mehra. Dushyant travels to a hill station on a holiday and runs into Shakuntala who falls in love with him. He rebuffs her but she persists and soon he reciprocates her love. Professor Vishwamitra is very upset when he learns of this. What complicates matters further is that the professor himself falls in love with Shakuntala. Eventually Dushyant and Shakuntala end up together.
