Upon receiving news of Rohit's death, Durga goes into depression. While she is recovering (before the bandages are removed), Rana, angry that he was rejected by Durga, attempts to murder Rohit, who goes missing. He takes her to a hospital where she will have surgery to regain her sight. When Durga's mother is killed by village goon Rana, Rohit promises to marry her and take care of her. Rohit tells her he will find a way to help her see again. Durga creates a clay bust of Rohit by feeling Rohit's facial features, but weeps because she cannot see it. The pair become friends and fall in love. She is poor and lives with her widowed mother in a village. Durga is a blind woman with a talent for shaping pottery.
