Purnima and Balraj Kohli are a happily married middle-aged couple, living in a rich neighborhood of Pune. They have two sons, Sagar and Babbu. Sagar falls in love with medico Sarita and they get engaged. It is revealed that Purnima is Balraj's second wife and not the biological mother of Sagar. Balraj is the husband of Sharada, Purnima's elder sister. When the newly married Purnima had lost her husband in an accident, a shocked Sharada fell down the stairs, damaging her head. She is in a mental institution in Mumbai for the past 14 years. Over the years, with no hopes of Sharada's recovery, Balraj and Purnima married.

When Sharada gets hit on her head by an inmate of the institution, she suddenly comes out of her coma. While the doctor explains to her that she was in a comatose state for the past 14 years but does not reveal that Balraj and Purnima are married. As Sharada heads home, alerted by the doctor, Purnima arranges everything to look like it was 14 years ago, making herself up like a widow, and sending Babbu to stay with Sarita. Balraj is happy to see Sharada recovered but sad to see Purnima in a widow's attire. They maintain things in that way for some time for fear that Sharada will fall ill again if she learns the truth.

When Purnima's son Babbu escapes from Sarita's hostel, the truth is revealed to Sharada. Shocked, she loses consciousness and becomes violent on regaining it. Balraj and Purnima are forced to send her back to the mental institution. Sarita, while trying to pacify her, realizes that Sharada is play acting to be crazy to exit from her family. Sharada extracts a promise from her to keep it secret.

The score was composed by R. D. Burman. The lyrics were penned by Gulzar. Songs were sung by playback singers Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle and Kishore Kumar.

Rekha played Raj Kiran's mother in the film, despite being six years younger than him in real life.
