Out of fear of his father finding out about his continued indulgence, Arun changes his name to Sanjay Kumar. He soon becomes a popular singer, and he is hired by the local radio station to sing songs. With his increasing popularity, the risk of his father discovering the truth has also increased, and so Arun must struggle to keep his singing career a secret.
