Arjun is a diligent worker and Karan as police officer, is assigned the task of protecting the interests of the Rai family. Sita is an Indian classical music enthusiast, whereas Lata is an Indian classical dance maestro. Both want to prove the supremacy of their arts in the court of Goddess Saraswati and Nataraja, Hindu deities God Shiva, echelons to same, and hold a competition.[2] Lata wins the competition by a quirk of luck, both sisters being of equal rank in their performance. This disheartens Sita, who grabs her black Fiat, drives recklessly to kill herself, but ends up hitting Jyoti, who is about to get married and sister of Arjun; is followed by Lata in white Hindustan Ambassador, who also bypasses the dying Jyoti, but is unable to stop Sita from killing herself by leaping from a cliff. Lata blames herself for the death of Sita and loses her mental balance. Meanwhile, Arjun vows to revenge his sister Jyoti's death, joins the gang of villains in Dr.Prashant's gang, and by a series of planned events, enters the Rai household as husband of Lata. He plans to kill Lata with Dr. Prashant, to whom he has pledged the Rai family empire in the deal. But fate has other things in store for him when he discovers the love of Lata and his misunderstandings. Before he can recover from his false Stupor, he is trapped by police officer Karan who also loves Lata, and taken into custody, for conspiracy.

The film ends in Kali temple, where Lata is taken for human sacrifice by the goons of Dr. Prashant, where in a scuffle and lots of action, victory over evil prevails, but Karan loses his life in an attempt to save Arjun, who is a reformed man and dear to Lata.

gollark: A more important question, maybe, is: when should potatOS *use* libhydraz?
gollark: It would probably be workable to just make `libhydraz` contain only the table of quotes as strings, and to make `autohydraz` or whatever do all the work.
gollark: Do I need to edit the `moon` or `lua` bit?
gollark: Elegant? Not really. Workable? Probably.
gollark: I can just make `notification` or whatever just return the relevant thing, or get rid of htat.
