==Plot== Jayantilal "Ratan" Pandey is a ruthless criminal. ACP Sanjay Path "S. P." Malhotra arrests him. Ratan wounds himself and is taken to the hospital, where ACP Malhotra is waiting for his wife Geeta Malhotra, who is in labor. She gives birth to twins. The doctor explains that both babies have a reflection mentality, which means that "what happens with one baby might be felt and reflected by another," depending on the proximity between them. Ratan escapes and takes one of the twins with him, injuring Geeta. ACP Malhotra chases after him. Unable to find his son, shoots a fleeing Ratan in an attempt to stop him. The kid grows up as Raja and finds a girl, Neelam whom he adopts as his sister. He finds another orphan, Rangeela Prakash and becomes his friend. Together they take care of the girl and become small-time thieves.
