The film begins with a couple moving into an old mansion. The old servant who greets them is surprised because the couple's appearance bears a striking resemblance to that of Bijan and Banani, the previous residents of the mansion. The servant shares the story of Bijan and Banani with the new residents. In flashback, we see Shiva Narayan, a Zamindar, living with his wife. Despite their efforts, they were unable to have children. Shiva Narayan refused to consider a second marriage, as his love for his wife was unwavering. However, one day, his wife unexpectedly became pregnant and gave birth to a girl. Unfortunately, after giving birth, she fell ill and passed away. Convinced that the newborn baby was the cause of his wife's death, Shiva Narayan followed the astrologer's advice and placed his daughter in a box, setting it adrift in the river Champa. The leader of the Banjaaro clan discovered the box and adopted the baby as his own daughter. The grown-up Banani attends the village fair with her fellow Banjaaro. As she walks, she is captivated by the enchanting melody of a flute and begins to sing and dance along, unaware that it is Bijan, a man from the city, who is playing the tune. Her fiancee, Madhal, asks Banani about the stranger and complains to her father, but Banani somehow manages to deceive her father and keep the truth from him. Her father warns her that Banjaaro women should not form relationships with outsiders, as is customary in their culture. Mattu requests Bijan to stop the Banjaaro, including his girlfriend Jarna, from leaving. Madhal again asks Banani about the flute player, but she avoids him. The leader of the Banjaaro informs Banani that they must prepare to leave the village under Bijan's orders. However, according to Banani's plan, the Banjaaro will present a dance to Bijan in an attempt to win his heart. Unfortunately, the Banjaaro are only rewarded with money. Bijan devises a strategy to stop Banani and the Banjaaro by pretending to have been bitten by a snake. Mattu brings Banani to the mansion, claiming that she is a snake venom curer. Bijan pretends to be cured by Banani's medicine, and his father is delighted. He asks what Banani wants as a reward, and she requests that he return their lands. He agrees to gift the lands back to the Banjaaro. Madhal then informs the leader of the Banjaaro that there is an affair between Bijan and Banani. He also shares this information with the Zamindar, inviting him to witness Bijan and Banani together. Enraged by this revelation, Bijan's father orders the leader of the Banjaaro to leave his lands immediately. Bijan's attempt to win his father's favor ultimately fails. As the Banjaaro depart the village, Banani hears Bijan's flute tune and rushes after him. Bijan and Banani try to escape, but the Banjaaro intercept them, attack Bijan, and take Banani away. Undeterred, Bijan and Mattu disguise themselves as snake charmers and arrive at Banjaaro's residence. The leader of the Banjaaro invites Bijan to join their group, promising that he can earn money by dancing with Banani. Bijan accepts the offer. Later, Bijan tells Madhal that he is an astrologer and claims that he can determine whether Banani loves him by examining her palm. Madhal, trusting Bijan's words, allows him to examine Banani's hands alone. Bijan uses this opportunity to declare that he wants to chant a mantra to Banani, and under the guise of doing so, he manages to escape with her. However, the Banjaaro soon discover that Bijan was posing as an astrologer and give chase. They capture Banani and beat Bijan, ultimately throwing him down a cliff. Bijan is rescued by the Raj Kumari of Ratanpur, who takes him in and nurses him back to health. By the time Bijan regains consciousness, he has lost all memory of his past. The Raj Kumari takes advantage of this situation and tells Bijan that he is the prince of Ratanpur and that they will soon be married. Noticing Bijan's fascination with the flute tune of Banani, Raj Kumari asks Banani to play for him, but she declines. Banani is shocked and delighted to see Bijan, and she tries to talk to him, but he does not recognize her. Banani assumes that Bijan has betrayed her and feels resentful towards him. The Raj Kumari drags Banani out of the palace, leaving Bijan behind. Later, Bijan faints after hearing a familiar tune at a fair, accompanied by the Raj Kumari. Banani, meanwhile, tricks the gatekeeper with her friend's help and manages to sneak into the palace. She discovers that the Raj Kumari is planning to marry Bijan before he regains his memories. Banani attempts to escape with Bijan, but is stopped by the Raj Kumari. The Raj Kumari then tries to kill Banani, but Bijan agrees to marry her instead, which prompts Banani's banishment from the palace without harm. Meanwhile, Raj Kumari's friend secretly helps Banani in her plan to get Bijan. With the assistance of Raj Kumari's friend, Mattu, and her own friend, Banani disguises herself as an astrologer and reenters the Palace. Raj Kumari's friend introduces her to Banani. Raj Kumari asks Banani whether she thinks Bijan will love her or not. Banani responds that she needs the opportunity to examine Bijan's hand alone in order to determine this. Raj Kumari agrees to allow it. Banani then claims that she must chant a mantra to make Bijan fall in love with Raj Kumari. Raj Kumari accepts this proposal. While Banani is chanting the mantra, she takes advantage of the opportunity to escape with Bijan. Later, Madhal tells Raj Kumari that she has been deceived by Banani and pursues Bijan and Banani. As they flee, their cart crashes, and Banani and Bijan seek refuge in a nearby house. When Madhal arrives, asking the owner of the house about their whereabouts, the owner remains silent about their presence. However, upon seeing Banani's appearance, the householder Shiva Narayan recognizes her as his long-lost daughter, whom he had given up for adoption. Banani shares her situation with her father, revealing her struggles and predicament. Banani takes Bijan with her and visits various temples, praying for his memory to return. However, despite her efforts, Bijan finds it difficult to recall anything. Banani then takes him to the spot where she first met him and dances to the flute tune, which seems to help him regain his memories. However, they are soon captured by the Banjaaro. The tribe ties Banani to a tree, beats Bijan, and keeps him captive in a house. They then set the house on fire, leaving Banani to beg God to save Bijan. Just as all hope seems lost, heavy rain extinguishes the flames, and the house is saved. The leader of the Banjaaro interprets this as a miracle of Bijan and Banani's love and decides to free Bijan from the house. Meanwhile, Madhal takes Banani away, and Bijan follows them. Madhal leads Banani to a cliff, threatening to push her down if Bijan tries to intervene. However, Bijan manages to defeat Madhal and rescues Banani. Back to the present, the servant of the mansion finishes recounting the tale of Banani and Bijan to the newly arrived couple, bringing their story to a close.
