After her graduation, her parents decide to marry her off with Ratan Chowdhury, (Manoj Kumar) the son of a zamindar, who had the mind frame that a highly educated wife would be incapable of handling and managing a home, especially in a joint family. Later, he marries Geeta, but his mentality and the talk of others stop him from accepting her. He disowns her and poor Geeta has to go back to her parents' house.
