Karuna (Meena Kumari) comes to Dr. Malhotras Hospital to etch out a new life
for her, leaving behind the pain of an orphan life. At the hospital she meets
the respected Dr. Malhotra, a dominating head nurse, a fun loving colleague and
an amagam of patients who all endear themselves to her quickly. Also working and
living close to the hospital is Dr. Sushil (Raj Kumar), a respected surgeon.
Through a minor accident involving Munni (Baby Naaz), Dr Sushils sister, Karuna
quickly earns the love and respect of Dr. Sushils mother and family. Working
closely with Dr. Sushil, Karuna slowly finds herself drawn to him and wishes for
an even closer relationship, but fate would play a different role for her.
