Somnath had envisioned his sons becoming judges, doctors, and police officers. While Vikram is a surgeon, Mohan is a Police Inspector and Ravi is now studying law and on his way to become a lawyer and then a Judge like his dad. The family have a dark secret. Ravi is prone to losing his temper, so much so that he gets out of control, and has killed someone in his childhood. When Kaamna gets raped, the family is reluctant to tell Ravi. When they do, they convince him to control himself, while Mohan gets an arrest warrant for Vinod, Kaamna's molester. Things do not go smoothly in court as the matter is put off for several months and then Somnath and Kaamna are killed in a bomb explosion.
