This fast-paced romantic drama follows the twists and turns in the life of Vicky, who has led a life of luxury and privilege as the son of the wealthy business magnate, Seth Amrish Rai. He returns home after a four year stint in the US, where he had gone to complete his higher education.
He is the apple of his parents' eye who have already chosen a suitable bride for the handsome young man. The lucky girl is Nisha, but unfortunately for her, cupid is up to his usual pranks. Vicky sets eyes on a strikingly beautiful girl whilst on the way home from the airport and promptly loses his heart to her.
The girl is Annie, whose father David is employed by Amrish Rai at his factory. To celebrate Vicky's return, Nisha hosts a party and unwittingly invites Annie, hardly imagining that the latter could be a possible rival. Vicky's love at very first sight is soon being warmly reciprocated by Annie. Vicky discovers that Annie's father works at the factory and realises the turmoil that could be created due to the two families being on separate rungs of the social ladder.
Predictably, neither family looks upon the growing romance with any favour and the meetings between the young lovers become closely guarded and secret affairs. Sensing that the chances of her entering a wealthy family as a bride are disappearing, Nisha makes it her business to keep Amrish Rai aware of what is happening. All the efforts of both Amrish Rai and David fail to break up the love affair.
As disturbing events mount up, Vicky and Annie decide that salvation lies in eloping, but matters have already taken an ugly turn and Nisha's brother Ranjit is aided and abetted by a gang of hoodlums who whisk Annie away. In a desperate effort to rescue Annie, Vicky too falls into the hands of the criminals who demand a huge ransom before they will release the kidnapped couple. How will the young lovers deal with the incredible danger and hardship that awaits them? Will their true love break all barriers and unite them against all odds?
