He meets a young man, also called Prakash (Ramesh Gupta), on the train who befriends him. The train meets with an accident and Prakash loses his memory. While Prakash is wandering around trying to regain his memory, the man from the train thinking that Prakash (Kumar) is dead, pretends to be Prakash and reaches his house. There everyone believes him to be Pakash except for his wife, Kamla (Rehana), who then runs away from home. She joins a band of wandering gypsies.

Reception[edit]
Filmindia called it a 'highly improbable and unrealistic story', but praised it for its fast pace and 'good entertainment'. The story was inspired by Random Harvest (1942), however unlike it, Sajan made 'no effort' to remain 'plausible'. Baburao Patel, the editor of Filmindia, remarked on the implausible situation of a mother, servants and others not recognising someone only after a period of eleven years. Sniper ghost warrior cheats. Critical of Rehana's acting, citing it as 'Rehana flops', Patel praised S. L. Puri, in his role of the gypsy leader, as the only actor to show any 'authenticity' in the film.[3]
Soundtrack[edit]
Ashok Kumar, who was to sing his songs in the film, was replaced by playback singer Mohammed Rafi. In his book 'A Journey Down Melody Lane', Bharatan states that Ashok Kumar was unable to reach the recording studios due to the Hindu-Muslim riots (1947), and hence the composer of the film, C. Ramchandra, 'daringly' chose Rafi to sing 'Hum Ko Tumhara Hi Aasra', which became 'an instant hit'.[7] The lyricists were Qamar Jalalabadi, Ram Murti Chaturvedi and Moti.[8]
