But luck did paly a very strong part in the lives of Shanker & Raja; - Two great friends of simple thoughts. Shankeer & Raja both fall in love with two girls named Champa & Rani respectively. Their romance was to culminate in marriage, when Jagu, brother of Rani is released from jail and upsets their apple cart. He himself falls for Champa and does not allow Rani, his sister, to see Raja. He hits Shanker unaware and throws him in a river.
