Mumbai based business tycoon, Tej Bahadur Saxena with his wife Savitri drives to his Khandala bungalow for spending a long weekend during Holi but due to unanticipated storm and heavy rain they could only reach their holiday spot by midnight.
As soon as they reach, a stranger, an 18 year old boy knocks at their door to seek refuge from the rainstorm. After verifying that the boy is not dangerous, Tej Bahadur Saxena permits him to spend a night in their bungalow. Tej Bahadur Saxena offers him Scotch whisky and later asks him to play cards. Meanwhile the boy starts getting attention from Savitri.
