Plot
Raj Shekhar Azad, an honest DCP whose sole intention is to wipe out corruption, emerged unflinching patriotism from his name to aim. But for every such patriot, there is an equally motivated terrorist. Waseem Khan, a dreaded terrorist is aided by Raj's father-in-law and corrupt DGP Surya Pratap Singh, many police officers and influential industrialist Shankar Singhania. Raj's path is laden with hurdles, but he leaves no stone unturned, within the realm of law, to wage a war against the evil doers.
Raj arrests Waseem and is entrusted with his interrogation. Waseem is placed in a special cell but still arranges riots in the city from within the confines of prison. Raj figures out that Surya is Waseem's accomplice. He kills Surya and performs his last rites then as his son-in-law. His wife, Anjali, is unaware of the incident and Surya's misdeeds.
