The household is run by a tyrannical old mother Shanta (Lalita Pawar). Her husband is a very religious meek man who lets her boss everyone around in the home. The home includes their elder daughter-in-law a widow raising two little boys. Their middle son is Kailash (Raaj Kumar) married to a very devoted loving woman. Their youngest son is Kamal (Rajendra Kumar) a college student who falls in love with another student Usha Gupta (Asha Parekh). The young married daughter who was living with her husband and father-in-law has now moved back home using a trivial reason such as how she doesn`t like her father-in-law`s singing. Her husband followed her and is staying in the household trying his best to get his wife to come back to his home.
