Dr. Uday Shankar is a kind-hearted Hindu gentleman who has chosen to practise medicine in a village rather than make money by working in a large city.
Once, a devastating flood hits a nearby village and he goes there to minister to the affected people.
At this time, he happens to rescue a Muslim child, Husain, whose entire family has been wiped out.
Shortly after this, Dr. Uday Shankar dies and Ajay devotes himself to carrying on his father's good name and legacy by serving the poor people of his village as a doctor.
