Plot

Suraj Saxena lives in a remote hill station in India with his father, Prakash, mother, and younger sister, Asha. One day he meets with Kiran Choudhary, who has come on a holiday trip with a group of girls. He offers to show her around, and they fall in love with each other. Suraj is unable to see her home by the train as Prakash had chest pains and had to be rushed to the hospital. But Suraj is unable to get Kiran out of his mind and heart. Before Asha gets married, the family decides to relocate to Mumbai, where Suraj enlists in college and makes several new friends, as well as becoming a popular basketball player. He eventually meets Kiran, and both renew their romance. Ranveer Choudhary does not appreciate the attention of a poor man like Suraj on Kiran and has Suraj brought up before him and introduced to his many friends, which include prominent lawyers, politicians, high-ranking civil and municipal employees, the police commissioner, as well as the state chief minister. Suraj is warned of dire consequences if he and his family do not leave town immediately. Suraj does not leave town, and hell descends on his family and himself. His mother is unable to purchase food and is publicly humiliated; Prakash is followed around by Ranveer's goons, harassed, and robbed, and then faces the ultimate humiliation of being publicly arrested, handcuffed, and imprisoned on charges of conspiring against the country and loses his job; and some of Suraj's friends exile him.
