The film stars Fardeen Khan opposite Richa Pallod, who makes her Bollywood debut as lead actress.

[citation needed] The story is based on two lovers who are unable to start a relationship because of their family's feud and ancient grudge.

The storyline is a remake of the Telugu movie Kalisundam Raa and features similarities with William Shakespeare's classical story, Romeo and Juliet.

At the behest of his wife, Vishnu Pratap calls his estranged son's family from Bombay for the event.

Their grandson, Abhay, arrives with his mother and sister to the village and is initially greeted with animosity.

25 years before, they decided that Abhay's father, Indra, would marry Virendra Pratap's niece, Amrita.

Amrita, despondent over her humiliation, committed suicide that day; Virendra Pratap's son-in-law and brother also died as a result of the fight that broke out at the wedding.
