Sunil Mehra (played by Manoj Kumar) completes his medical studies and becomes a doctor. He is kidnapped by dacoits in the Himalayas, harassed, and left badly hurt. Phoolwa, a villager (played by Mala Sinha), finds and takes care of him till he becomes fit. He then leaves for his home in the city.

But he goes back to the Himalayas to help poor people who don't have proper facilities and or medical care. Villagers resist his arrival as they don't trust his modern medicines and believe only in local healers. Worried for him, Sunil's family sends his fiancée Neeta (played by Shashikala) to get him back. Sunil in turn asks Neeta, who also is a doctor, to stay there with him. Firm on his decision, he stays. He falls in love with Phoolwa.
