Jeeva (Bobby Deol) comes from a middle-class & strugging family, and is employed as a salesman in a store. He has the misfortune of falling in love with Kiran (Malaika Arora), who comes from a wealthy and influential family. Her dad (Mohan Joshi) is enraged and livid at Jeeva, and as a result has Jeeva's mom (Farida Jalal) and two sisters publicly arrested for prostitution, and eventually all three kill themselves.

Now Jeeva is a professional killer, who will kill anyone for a price. He is in between jobs in his small apartment, when his neighbor's daughter, Kiran Bali (Rani Mukerji) comes to deliver his milk. While she is in his apartment, both of them bear witness to the brutal killing of the entire Bali family.
