## Summary

Gaurav Shankar "Guru" Shrivastav's ambition is to become an upright Police officer, but unluckily he is not getting selected. His sole strength is his lady love Rama. As Guru's ambition fails, he turns to alcohol, dacoity, and thuggism. He finally joins Manu's lethal gang to take revenge on the Police force, which blocked his ambition. Uma (Rama's lookalike), is Vicky's important gang member. One day, Vicky gets the confidential message about an undercover cop in his Gang.
