Plot
Chided by his family for being the absolute miser, wealthy industrialist Dhaniram loves his money as a mother loves a child. This does not auger well with his two sons, Ajay and Vijay. The two sons despise their father and find various ways to entrap him, but in vain. Dhaniram gets in the bad books of Income Tax Officer, D.O. Gogi, and as a result Gogi is arrested and imprisoned. His sister, Dolly and brother, Gulu both scheme a devious plot that will ensure the death of Dhaniram, and the control of his wealth will rest with them and Gogi. His third son Ravi makes everything correct.
