action

The brothers Brijmohan, Manmohan and Jagmohan Sharma run a car repair shop. One day the beautiful Renu comes to the workshop because her car has given up the ghost. While Manmohan repairs her car, Renu leaves the workshop with the car without paying first. Manmohan discovers her wallet in the workshop and finds a ticket for a concert in it.

Now he decides to go to the concert to get his money for the work done. However, since the card is reserved for Renu, he will not be admitted. That's why he waits in Renu's car and falls asleep there out of boredom. When Renu gets into the car, she does not notice him and drives her car into the garage. After Manmohan wakes up, he is caught by a servant. Manmohan immediately fled.

The next day Renu needs help again and assures the brothers that they will still settle their old bill. Now the shy Jagmohan tries to repair the car, since he meets Sheela, he gets nervous and has to call in the help of Manmohan.

Meanwhile, Renu's father is busy with Raja Hardayal Singh, who wants to marry off his younger brother to Renu. Little does Renu's father suspect that Raja is a criminal who is only behind his money.

During the meeting between Manmohan and Raja, Manmohan recalls an incident - he witnessed Raja dumping a corpse on the street. Manmohan takes Renu with him to protect her from Raja. However, they are prevented from attempting to escape by Raja's alleged younger brother.

They are then taken prisoner and meet Kamini, who was forcibly married to Raja just to get her father's money. During the conversation it turns out that she was once Brijmohan's friend. Kamini tries to help them escape, but fails, so only Kamini can escape alone and brings Brijmohan to help.

Eventually Renu's father is blackmailed and threatened. But before the situation escalates, Brijmohan intervenes and the three brothers defeat the villains. Ultimately, they celebrate a triple wedding: Manmohan takes Renu as his wife, Brijmohan is reunited with his Kamini and the youngest brother Jagmohan marries Sheela.
