He stays with them as he wants to learn music from Darbar. Nandini and Sameer eventually fall in love but Darbar opposes and asks Sameer to leave them and go back to Italy. Nandini is then married off to Vanraj who finds out she loves Sameer. Vanraj loves her but helps her travel to Italy to find Sameer so she can be with him. Once there Nandini slowly realizes that she truly loves Vanraj and chooses to be with him.
This movie is still looked upon as a masterpiece and has now become a timeless classic in Indian cinema.
