Plot

The film's plot revolves around a love triangle. [1][2] Prakash (Karan Dewan), the protagonist in this love triangle, is the son of a very wealthy man, and the darling (ladla) of the family. When Prakash decides he wants to be an independent person, he gives up his extravagant lifestyle and together with his friend Johnny (Agha) moves to Bombay, where he gets himself a job and begins a new life.

In Bombay, Prakash meets Nilu (Shyma) and the two of them fall in love. Surprisingly, a love triangle does not emerge between Prakash, Nilu and Johnny. Instead, Johnny befriends Sheelu (Krishnakumari) and they too fall in love. All seems to be going well for all four of them, until Motilal (S. Nazeer) enters the picture. Like Prakash, Motilal is also madly in love with Nilu.

Things become even more complicated when Prakash visits Motilal at his home where, after looking at several photographs, Prakash realizes that Motilal is his long- lost brother.

The plot in Ladla progresses with the resolution of the conflict that arises in a love triangle when two brothers are in love with the same woman.
