Nandu falls in love with his childhood friend Kamli, but her family won't consider him as a suitor because he's poor and unemployed. Hoping to win their respect, Nandu joins the military, where he finally attains success. But when he returns home on leave, he discovers that Kamli has married another man. Worse, her husband is Nandu's superior, and the young man must decide whether to quit the army -- or be reminded of his lost love every day.
