The film begins in a village where Mahadev, a bent loan shark, racks the farmers with debts. Ram, the son of an ex-military, returns home and encounters Mahadev. Ram loves his childhood mate Seeta, the daughter of postmaster Dindayal. Mahadev entices her, and in turn, he is mocked. To pay back, he denounces Seeta as worse, which leads to her father's death. However, Ram proves Seeta unsullied and knits her. Soon, Mahadev ruses to squat on the land allocated by the Govt for his father's bravery. Ram retrieves it by selling his property and striving to cultivate it with Seeta. Time passes, and Ram & Seeta are blessed with two sons, Rajesh & Kishan, who live buoyantly. Ram aims to tune Rajesh as a farmer to mold Kishan into a high officer. Eventually, he battles uphill with Mahadev, intrigues, and kills Ram by backstabbing. Before dying, he takes an oath from Seeta to achieve his goal. Years rolled by, and Rajesh wedlock lavish Parvati. Kishan, a meritorious student, falls for Radha. All goes well until Parvati's wicked cousin Janardhan / Dhan walks in. Indeed, he is a mob circulating fake currency. Currently, Dhan fuses with Mahadev and ploys to tune Rajesh into the wrong business path for their corrupt undercover. Rajesh mortgages his land at Mahadev for it when Seeta rebukes. Therein, a rift arises, and Rajesh quits. Following this, Mahadev subterfuges by breaching a dam in which Seeta's crop vanishes when she collapses. During that plight, Kishan lands and reprisals Mahadev. Parallelly, the knaves backstabbed Rajesh by incriminating him, which reforms him. At last, Kishan secures his sibling and ceases Mahadev. Finally, the movie ends happily with Seeta triumphing in Ram's dream.
