However, two days before the actual wedding, a fire breaks out at Krishnakant's house. Although Poonam runs out of the house in time, she realizes that Rajni is still inside and saves her. Poonam gets heavily burnt in the process. The doctor informs her father that in such cases, even families disown their own. Bhagatji, broken heartedly, calls Prem right as he is leaving for Madhupur for the ceremony. As he is about to sign the waiver allowing her surgery, he begins to cry and cannot do so. Prem arrives, determined to marry Poonam despite her injuries and bringing the finest doctors from Delhi. He marries her informally before her surgery. With the aid of the Delhi doctors, the hospital successfully performs surgery on Poonam. Later, Poonam and Prem are traditionally married and go home to their new life. The film ends with Poonam and Prem consummating the marriage.
