Plot summary
Surinder Sahni, known as Suri, holds a quiet job at Punjab Power and keeps to himself. He falls for Taani while arrangements for her marriage are under way, and when those plans collapse he becomes her husband instead. She agrees to the match out of respect for her father, then tells Suri plainly that she cannot love him. In Amritsar he treats her with kindness but cannot say what he feels. Taani, looking for something in her unhappy days, signs up for a dance class. Suri doubts he can compare with the confident men she admires, so with his friend Bobby's help he puts on the flamboyant guise of Raj, enrolls in the same class and becomes her partner there.
