Story Overview
Shivnath Choudhary, popularly known as Joggi Thakur, lives a comfortable life with his wife Leela and young daughter Neena. Despite his wealthy background, Shivnath is compassionate toward the poor villagers and regularly interacts with them.
His wife disapproves of his closeness with the villagers. When Shivnath attempts to help poor people financially, the conflict with Leela becomes more serious. Their disagreement eventually leads to Shivnath being separated from his beloved daughter.
After leaving his family, Shivnath's life takes a tragic turn. He eventually becomes involved in a serious incident and is sentenced to 14 years in prison. During his imprisonment, he continues to think about Neena and hopes that he will one day see his daughter again.
Years later, Shivnath encounters Neena again, but she does not know that the prisoner she has come to know is actually her father. She has grown up and is preparing to marry Dr. Biren, a doctor associated with the prison.
Shivnath hides his true identity because he fears that revealing himself could destroy the relationship he has finally managed to build with his daughter. As Neena's wedding approaches, his health deteriorates, leading to the film's deeply emotional climax.
