One day Chandni accidentally meets Manohar a modern Kisan. A battle of wits ensues between them both. However, the younger couple seem to be attracted towards each other-Manohar, with his modern ideas of about agriculture and the proud owner of the tractor and Chandni born with a silver spoon in her mouth and believing in marrying for love only.

Nothing would please Chachi more than seeing Moti and Chandni married. But when Moti realses that Chandni does not love him, he lies to Chachi that he is already married to one Minoo Roy. Now it is so happens that a girl by that name really exists and unknown to Moti has been recently has fallen head over ears in love with Minoo. When Chachi locks up Moti and Minoo in her room believing them to be man and wife, Minoo has no recourse but to hit Moti with a vase and effect her escape via a balcony.

At first Chachi is shocked to learn that Chandni wants to marry a Kisan. But ultimately she gives her consent as she has come to like the independent-minded boy. Now an unexpected hitch occurs between the lovers. Chandni wants Manohar to stay with her at her palatial residence and Manohar insists that she should stay with him in the village.

Moti comes to see Manohar and sees Minoo in the distance. manohar out of jealousy lies to him that he is going to marry Minoo. Moti swears to kill Manohar. When Minoo acquaints Manohar's mother with the truth, she decides to see Chachi.

The humiliated Chandni comes to Manohar ad asks him to forgive her. But the arrogant boy insults and leaves her. Chachi comes to know from mother that Chandni and Manohar still love each other. Both the elderly ladies rush to the fields in the funny motor car of Bholaram.

In the fields, Moti and Manohar are fighting a deadly battle. Chandni rushes up. She is accidentally wounded by Moti who was going to kill Manohar with an iron rod. This brings the excited young men to their senses. Now Chachi, Mother and Bholaram come up. Chachi dominates the scene. Moti and Minoo and Chandni and Manohar are all reconciled. And thus all's well that ends well.
