There he heard the Vaid's daughter Chanda sing. The sweet melody of the song touched the chords of his heart. Packing his bags and baggage, the Vaid, along with Chanda bade farewell to the tiny little village, and came to town with Rajan. Rajan found the melodies that could heal his ailing heart. Chanda, the village belle had found a palace to live in. New desires crowded her young heart. The poor girl never knew that Rajan did not love her for her youth and beauty but he loved her melodious voice. .

One day in a fit of mental agony, Rajan decided to leave for the hills. Chanda and the Vaid had to accompany him. In those hills Chanda found a stray blind child. She brought her home. A little later the child's mother came looking for the child. And the poor Chanda learnt that the little child she had given shelter to was Rajan's only daughter Babli, and her mother was his wedded wife Bina. Poor Chanda also learnt that all along she had been a castle in the air.

This tumbled her sweet little world to pieces. She lost all that she had found, another woman got all that she had lost. The old Vaid saw all this happen, he smiled and kept quiet. After her return from the hills, Chanda fell ill. Under orders from Bina, she had to vacate the palace which she had once imagined the stronghold of her love.

In the new house, ailing Chanda lived with her helpless father and Sarju her simple lover from the village. Poor Sarju's love had lost its passion and now founds its expression in sympathy for his disillusioned beloved. A few days later, on Babli's birthday because of Bina’s harsh words, Babli died of a fall from the roof. Chanda was blamed for this tragic death, when she came to wish Babli a happy birthday then she promised Bina that she will bring all her happiness back.
