Plot

Heir to the Maharajah of Dharpuli, Rhandah leaves to study in England. Before leaving, he promises his eternal love to Princess Nada and she, as a token of love, gives him an amulet. In England, Amy Dawe, a rich girl, flirts with the prince because she has bet to get the amulet from him. Rhandah tries to hug Amy, but Dick Larimer, her boyfriend, warns him, reminding him that he's just a Hindu.

Back in India, Rhandah licks his wounds: embittered, he meditates revenge and Nada's attitude certainly does not help him, who rejects him not believing his assurances that he has always been faithful to her. The opportunity for revenge comes when Amy and Dick arrive in India and are taken prisoner during a riot. Rhandah, however, will yield to the pleas of Nada who, realizing that Amy is not her rival, now asks for mercy for the two Englishmen.
