An old couple meets a traditional girl Sudha, who is going on a pilgrimage with her mother, in a train.

Ramesh's father, Jwala Prasad asks Ramesh to marry Sudha before he leaves for London, or he would not provide for the expenses abroad. Ramesh agrees to the marriage, but leaves for London soon after the wedding ceremony, without even seeing his wife. He meets Gupte while traveling on a ship and becomes friends with him. He also meets Jenny in London and is friends with her, though Jenny loves him.

Shankarnath finds a distraught Sudha and teacher her English, helps her learn the ways of the world, so she can find Ramesh and win his heart. Sudha then travels to London, under Shankarnath's tutelage, and stays with his acquaintance, Mr. Malhotra. She assumes the name of Sushma, and meets Ramesh, who falls for her.

However, things become complicated when Shankarnath discovers that Jenny is his long-lost granddaughter. How Sudha and Ramesh come together when all the truths are revealed forms the story from then onwards. [1]
