action

Deepa Malik, a very rich young woman, has so far had no luck in love. She is now 23 years old and frustrated by Indian men. In their view, their only aim is the money and nothing to romance. That's why she flies to Paris, the city of love, to meet nice French people. Her father's secretary also lives there and hires the assistant Honey and the driver Makkan Singh for her.

In Paris, Deepa meets a French man who tells his Indian friend Shyam Kumar about her. Shyam, also called Sam, takes Deepa out of him and they get closer in Switzerland.

Shekar, the secretary's son, has gambling debts and desperately needs money, otherwise he will get into big trouble with his boss Jack. He is now trying to marry Deepa. That she is with Sam is a thorn in his side.

At the Paris cabaret, Shekar sees a girl who goes by the name Suzy and looks exactly like Deepa. Then he has an idea and comes up with a plan: He kidnaps Deepa and Suzy plays Deepa in her place.

This goes well for a few days and no one becomes suspicious. Nevertheless, after a few days Sam wonders about Deepa and becomes suspicious.

Meanwhile, Deepa's father travels to Paris and Sam finds out that his girlfriend is not the real Deepa. He tells Deepa's father, who believes that this girl must be Deepa's missing twin sister, Roopa. Roopa was kidnapped when she was a young girl. Exactly at this moment Suzy comes in and Deepa's father is overjoyed to have found his missing daughter, but Suzy refuses to see himself as his daughter and runs away. Sam runs after her to find Deepa. But Suzy only comes out with the truth when he marries her because she has fallen in love with him. For Sam this is an impossible request because he only loves Deepa.

One of Jack's accomplices demands a ransom for Deepa. Sam agrees to finally get Deepa back and is on his way. Suzy gets wind of it and arrives before him at the agreed meeting point. By now she had realized that she couldn't stand between her sister and her love. Once there, she swaps roles with Deepa so that Deepa can escape. When Sam arrives there, too, he gets into a conflict with Jack, who then shoots Suzy, who pretends to be Deepa. She explains to Sam that the real Deepa has escaped. Sam sets out to find Deepa. After he has found her, they both flee. Meanwhile, Suzy is driven to the hospital by Makkan Singh and survives the attack.
