Later, Police arrest Ravi for stealing ₹ 5000 from his employer, which shocks his father. The Court finds him guilty and sentences imprisonment for three months. Gaurishankar passes away after hearing this, but before death, he informs his wife, knowing who the real thief was. Savitri is unable to reveal this fact to anybody. When Ravi completes his sentence, he returns home and finds that Usha is to marry Rakesh (Rakesh Roshan), Dinanath's son. He re-locates to Bombay, gets a job, earns well and sends money to his mother, which actually does not reach the right hands as the middle lady Bindu manages to get the money by making a false thumb impression.
