He happens to meet Aarti Mathur (Shabana Azmi) and both are attracted to each other. Ravi is unable to express his love and attraction for ARti because he feels she will die if he loves her. His earlier love died in an accident. Arti agreed to meet him and marry but she never comes back. Ravi finds her after two years and thinks that she does not love him. When she is unable to climb the train he realizes that she lost her leg in an accident. She did not go to marry him two years ago because she did not want him to marry a lame girl.
