Plot
Arjun Singh comes from a poor family. He lives in a small and shabby tenement with his mother and sister. He was studying in college where he falls in love with beautiful Deepa. One day, he attacks a corrupt Police Officer and is sent to prison for that. Deepa bails him from jail with the help of her father Police Commissioner, Raj Sahni. Deepa's father wants Arjun to join the police force as he feels that the department needs some honest officers. He joins the police force, and gets posted to another city where the original Police Inspector was killed by the goons. He goes to the city along with his mother and sister. This puts him into conflict with a notorious gangster, Bhaiji. In order to teach Arjun a lesson, Bhaiji orders people in this community to stop interacting with Arjun and his family, as a result the three are alienated. His sister and his mother pass away.
