[2] Ram Singh (Master Romi) is a schoolboy who one day brings home a penknife, which one of his classmate had forgotten to take back.

One day, Ram Singh (Dev Anand) now grown up, is escaping from the police after being betrayed by a dancing girl, Gulnar (Kumkum), who dies in the crossfire between cops and bandits.

He jumps aboard a train where he meets a fellow conman, Kirorilal (Radha Krishen), who becomes his partner in crime.

Ram Singh soon discovers that Sheila's brother is none other than a CID inspector named Mehta (Prabhu Dayal), from whom he had previously escaped.

After learning of the birth of his child and being unable to bear the separation from his wife, Ram Singh is reformed, and lives on charity while finding shelter in temples.

On the album, film critic Suresh Kohli of The Hindu noted that except for "O Lootnewale Duniya Ko", the other songs "were even hummable".
