If circumstances had not made Raj an Engineer he would have been a poet. He was more interested in the perfection that nature promised than the human beings and their creations, which looked so incomplete to him. His father R.S. Gopaldas sent him to a far off place where Raj was appointed as an Engineer. R.S. Gopaldas, one day decided to visit Raj and let him know about his dead mother’s wish, the Raj should marry Chandra the sophisticated daughter of a rich family friend. Raj could not conceive the idea of getting married to a girl who was a complete stranger but eventually decided to listen to his father and give her a fair chance. Raj decided to write a letter to Chandra and the letter that he wrote was nothing but sheer poetry and Chandra could not associate herself with the writer of the letter But Neelu, the teenaged sister of Chandra, was immensely moved by the reality and genuine human values that the letter conveyed. Chandra didn’t want to reply back to the letter, but Neelu asked her the permission whether she could reply to the letter on her behalf and after getting the permission replied back to Raj. This led to a chain of letters and Raj and Neelu got close to each other. Suddenly Raj was infected with the T.B. disease and he couldn’t live for a long time, so he decided to lie to Neelu because he didn’t want her to know about his disease. And he told her that he was in love with her sister Chandra. He made a decision, which was a premature death of his happiness. They say that the measure of love is not what you can take but what you can give up for it. Will Neelu give up Raj? And thus this strange love story heads towards a climax, which is more tragic than any tragedy told so far…
