The lovely Mukta is the poster master Bapusaheb's daughter. While still in college, she marries Vilas, the son of the avaricious Aai Saheb, who demands a large dowry from Mukta's family. After their marriage, Vilas has an affair in secret with another woman, and Aai Saheb harasses Mukta constantly. The only person who stands up for Mukta in the family is her sister-in-law, Jyothi, who confronts her mother when she mistreats her. Deepak, whom Jyothi is in love with, feels awful for Mukta because of how she is treated. After seeing a picture of Vilas with another woman one day, Mukta is devastated and tells her parents about it. When Mukta returns to her in-laws, her father finds Aaisaheb abusing her and takes her back to his house. Jyothi then leaves her home with Deepak because she can't stand how her mother and brother treat her.
A few days later, Bapusaheb receives a telegram informing him that Aaisaheb is ill and asks Mukta to show forgiveness. Mukta steps in to support Aaisaheb. While they are traveling, Jyothi, Deepak, and their driver notice something strange: Aaisaheb has called Mukta back. When they meet her, Aaisaheb reveals that everything was orchestrated by her and Vilas to get Mukta back so they could kill her. When Jyothi discovers the crime and passes out, Aaisaheb and Vilas set Mukta on fire. Vilas and Aaisaheb keep her locked in the house and warn her not to tell anyone the truth. However, Deepak and the driver are able to free her, and she tells the truth that Mukta was killed by Aaisaheb and Vilas for dowry. In the end, Aaisaheb and Vilas are taken into custody by the police.
