Plot

Jagan is a tourist guide in Jodhpur, Rajasthan and also an Ayurvedic practitioner. Radha is a tourist who visits Jodhpur with her friends and subsequently tries to commit suicide at Mehrangarh. She is stopped by Jagan, who manages to convince her to enjoy her trip instead. Radha eventually leaves the city without saying goodbye to her saviour. Later, Jagan's mother takes her son to Badami to perform a puja, and there the young man meets Radha once more.

At the bus station, when Jagan attempts to propose to Radha, she is attacked by Veerappa henchmen, but Jagan rescues her, whereupon she reveals that she is from Ballala's family and that her father will not accept the marriage proposal. Jagan consoles her and promises to convince her family. He arrives at their village just in time to thwart attackers sent by Pallava, another of Ballala's rivals.

On a separate occasion, during the festival of Durga Puja, the Ballala family is again engaged in a conflict with a rival group, and Jagan once more intervenes. He confesses that his grandfather is a Rathnakara. The Ballala family then offers an alliance with the Rathnakaras by proposing the marriage of Ballala's brother to Rathnakara's daughter, who rejects the proposal. Dejected and angry, Ballala's brother attacks everyone at the Ratnakara residence in an attempt to kill the daughter that was offered to him. He is accidentally slain by Jagan's father, however. In retaliation, Ballala slaughters the Rathnakaras, sparing only Jagan and his parents, but instructs them to depart.

The feuds between the four families continue, however, leading first to Radha's captivity, an ensuing gang battle, and ultimately, a truce. Jagan and Radha are finally reunited after many travails, and they receive everyone's approval to marry.
