His wife having died young, Vikram has brought up his son Sanjay (Farooq Shaikh) and daughter Chandni (Farah), sacrificing his own personal happiness, choosing a secret relationship over marriage, with Maya (Rekha). He dotes upon his children and is very protective about his daughter.
When Vijay (Rohan Kapoor) comes into Chandni's life and steals her heart - they realize the course of true love never runs smooth and her father's disapproval and her impending arranged marriage threatens the love between Chandni and Vijay.
