Later on, realizing her mistake, Vasanti apologizes to him, and the two fall in love. Vasanti's elder sister, Geeta, supports the family by stitching clothes. Bhaskar rents the room upstairs in their house. He falls ill and in nursing him, Geeta falls in love with him. She confides her love to Vasanti, who decides to sacrifice her love for the sake of her sister and convinces Bhaskar to marry Geeta. Bhaskar initially neglects Geeta. On finding out, Vasanti writes to him that their sacrifice, made for Geeta's happiness, would mean nothing unless he is a good husband to Geeta. Bhaskar relents Geeta and he has a son. Vasanti joins them and Geeta suspects that something is going on between Bhaskar and Vasanti and makes Vasanti leave the house. A few years later Geeta, having found out that Bhaskar and Vasanti loved each other, dies in guilt, leaving Bhaskar alone to bring up their child making him promise that he will make Vasanti the child's mother.
