Vidyadhar Patwardhan (Amitabh Bachchan) lives a middle-class life with his wife, Sumitra (Sharmila Tagore). They have a son, Amar (John Abraham) who lives abroad in London. It is through his income that the family lives on. Amar returns home with Jenny Mayer (Anusha Dhandekar) and announces his intention to get married to her. Both his parents are pleased and happy for the two.
Amar goes out celebrating with his friends on his birthday, whilst his parents and Jenny organise a surprise party for him. Amar is killed in fight whilst helping his friends. The family are devastated and they follow the case up to the conviction of the assailant who is identified to be Harshwardhan Kadam (Amitabh Dayal).
The police change the reports and Amar's parents soon find out that the murder of their son has been covered up. They accuse Amar of selling drugs and the witnesses are battered and are forced to change their statements. Soon Jenny is accused of selling drugs and she is locked up in a cell.
