Rajesh lives a delightful life as an apolitical poet in his college days, with his love Kamini and his best friend Dheeraj, a policeman. But when his brother is killed by the British Colonial Army, he abandons everything and becomes a revolutionary freedom fighter. Time passes and he becomes a symbol of the resistance with a bounty on his head. When unfortunate circumstances force an injured Rajesh into hiding, he finds himself taking refuge at Dheeraj's quarters and encounters his past when he meets Kamini again, as the wife of his best friend, while the British become more and more eager to crush all anti-colonial sentiments in India.
