Plot summary
A Kashmiri girl named Antara moves with her mother to Mumbai, where she falls in love with a gangster, Raghu. Raghu is forced to make hard decisions about whether his allegiances lie with his gang and his godmother, Daya Mayi, or with his newfound love, Antara.
Raghu's past catches up with him when Daya Mayi's son, Satya, returns home. Satya ruins Raghu and Antara's marriage plans. When Raghu discovers that Antara is pregnant with his child, Raghu and Antara escape. Antara gives birth to a boy, Vidhan, but eventually Satya finds and kills Antara and Raghu. Satya later marries and has a daughter, Vedika.
20 Years later[4]
Vedika returns to the district where she falls in love with Vidhan, Raghu's son. Tragedy follows and Satya's sins come back upon him many times over, completing the cycle of violence that he began when he murdered Raghu and Antara. Vidhaan returns to seek revenge on Satya and meets Machmach who is unaware that Vidhaan is Raghu's son. When Vidhaan reveals his identity to Machmach, he vows to help him in his revenge.
Vidhaan faces Satya and a fight ensues. Vidhaan chooses to spare Saya's life who uses this as an advantage and shoots an unsuspecting Vidhaan. As Vedika witnesses Vidhaan dying, she shocks her father and kills herself by shooting herself in the chest.
A heartbroken Satya repents all the murders he committed as Machmach taunts him about his fate.
