Heera (Dev Anand) has two passions in his life, namely photography and his love for Reema (Raakhee), an air hostess. When Reema passes away in an airplane accident, Heera is left with his only passion in life – photography. During one of his photographic sessions with Raja Sahab (Rehman), a priceless diamond is stolen by Panna (Zeenat Aman) and hidden in Heera's car. When Heera learns about this theft and that he is in possession of the stolen property, he decides to turn Panna to the police but discovers to his shock that Panna is Reema's younger sister. Feeling pity for her, Heera decides not to. While Heera describes to her how he met Reema on a plane, how they fell in love, and the tragic accident resulting in her death, Panna narrates how she was tempted by Anil (Dheeraj Kumar) and ultimately forced into joining the dark world of theft and robbery. Hearing all this, Heera remembers how Reema once told him to take care of her sister and vows to save her from the ruffians. Soon Anil and his men along with Hari's (Jeevan) goons (the group's mastermind) reach Heera and Panna's hiding place. In the confrontation that takes place, they fail to snatch the diamond away from Heera, but Panna gets hit fatally and eventually succumbs to her wounds. The Police along with Raja Sahab and Panna's father arrive; Heera who is accused of stealing the diamond proves himself innocent and hands over the same to the police who arrest all the henchmen. The film ends as Heera drives away in his car, left with the memories of both Reema and Panna.
