Rajiv meets Uday and thinks that he is a good guy so he agrees to marry his sister. His misconception is soon cleared when he finds out about the "business" Uday is actually into and breaks off the marriage.
Rajiv and his family are harassed by Uday Shetty and his goons so they decide to run away to South Africa. Rajiv meets Sanjana and they instantly fall in love. To everyone's surprise, it is revealed that Sanjana is Uday Shetty's sister. Dr. Ghungroo disapproves of their relationship and tells them that he will let Rajiv marry Sanjana only if Uday and Majnu decide to come clean and leave the underworld business.
