The wealthy landowner, Zamindar Maan Singh (K. N. Singh), is oppressive and demanding of the people in his state. Rashmi and her family have just arrived in Gangapur as guests of Maan Singh. Rashmi is captured by the dreaded dacoit Black Bandit. The Bandit releases Rashmi but keeps her jewellery. She notices a mark on the bandit's hand, which is also present on Pratap's hand. Pratap Singh (Kishore Sahu) is the oldest son of Maan Singh and Rashmi realises that he's the bandit. Pratap also suffers from a heart problem unknown to the others. It's soon revealed that Pratap is the bandit and his father asks him to leave the house. When Pratap has a heart attack, his father relents and hands over the running of the property to him.
