Plot


Childhood friends become enemies when one of them, Mahendra Ashwini Kumar becomes Additional Commissioner of Police and the other Raj Pratap Singhal becomes a smuggler. Mahendra has two sons – Rajesh and Brajesh who are also police officers. While on the other hand Raj also has two sons;- Vishal who helps in developing his father's business and Vicky who finds employment in a garage.
When one of Mahendra's goons murders Brajesh, Rajesh swears to avenge his brother's death. Even if for this he has to take the law into his own hands. After Brajesh's death, he is left alone with his widowed wife Kaushalya and a daughter Meghna. Meghna and Vicky meet each other and fall in love. Kumar, unaware of Vicky's family background, gives his consent.
Mahendra is then promoted as Police Commissioner. Singhal is unable to bear this and sends another of his goons to murder Mahendra. Raj moves to Dubai with his wife, son, daughter-in-law Anu to escape the police and government officials. He has also kidnapped Meghna to ensure his safety from Rajesh's wrath. Meghna learns that Vicky is actually Raj's second son and has now started showing his true colours.
