One night, Banku sneaks down the dining room to enjoy the ice cream and encounters a ghost named Kailash Nath. Banku nicknames him Bhoothnath, amix of bhoot (ghost in hindi) and Nath, being his surname. Though Bhoothnath tries to scare him off, Banku considers him an angel and treats him like a friend. Soon, Bhoothnath accepts by Banku's innocent love after a minor incident, as Banku falls from the stairs which Bhoothnath claims responsibility for.

Many years back, Kailash Nath has a happy family consisting of him, wife Nirmal along with son Vijay and his own family. Vijay tries to sell the house, but Bhoothnath disallows him though Vijay's wife is in hurry to fly US. He tries to stop him but fails. On the day of departure, Vijay's son is taken away despite his will. Bhoothnath tries to stop them, but his foot slips on a step and he falls to the ground. Bhoothnath, unaware that he has just died, rises and reaches for the taxi but is late as it has already departed. As he sighs and walks inside, he collapses in shock after seeing his dead body lying by realising he is now a ghost. Later, Aditya and Anjali decide to perform the final rites of Bhoothnath to give him salvation. As Banku and his father perform the rites, Vijay arrives and apologizes for his mistake.

A distraught Banku arrives at his school, and as he parks his cycle, he is happily reunited with Bhoothnath who has returned but requests Banku and the viewers to hide the secret.
