Talkative Kalpana(Rekha)'s brother Kamal (Amol Palekar) warns her about her habit of lying though she continues with her habit. Their neighbour Seema (Supriya Pathak) is secretly in love with Kamal. Her sister Alpana (Prema Narayan) who works in a travel agency is in love with Rasikhal (Deven Varma). Their mother (Shammi) fixes Alpana's marriage with Dr Anil Gupta (Raj Babbar). He is known to their neighbour Seema and her mother (Dina Pathak). Kalpana lies to her mother that the doctor's character is bad and thereby stops her sister's wedding. Kalpana is taken to Dr Anil and he talks about his "bad" character. She apologises and promptly falls in love with the doctor. One day she catches the doctor's brother, Sunil (Rasik Dave) taking drugs but she does not tell the doctor, She helps Sunil come out of the bad habit. But when the gang who supplies drugs finds that Sunil has turned into a new leaf, they suspect him to be a the police informer. So they attack him and try to kidnap Kalpana. When Sunil helps Kalpana escape, he is framed with the charge of murder by the gang. The police arrest Sunil. To save Sunil, Kalpana lies in the court saying that Sunil was with her at a hotel during the murder. The lawyer proves that Sunil is innocent and he is freed. But Kalpana's family and Dr Anil believe that she is a woman of bad character. She leaves home and is kidnapped by the villains. When Sunil tells everyone that Kalpana had lied to save him, they go and save her from the villains. So the garrulous Rekha's lies do come into good use.
