This story is not only about the ongoing Indian freedom struggle in the year 1942 but also about a love story that was blossoming amidst all this. Naren, the son of a wealthy local politician who was loyal to the British crown, falls in love with Rajjo, the daughter of an Indian freedom fighter.

They get caught up in the increasingly violent revolutionary scene when Rajjo's father and her uncle conspire to assassinate a sadistic, visiting British general who was determined to keep India under stricter British rule. This was a time when most people in India were either working for the British or rallying for underground meetings and conspiracies against them. In the meantime romance blossoms between Narendra Singh (Anil Kapoor) and Rajeshwari Pathak (Manisha Koirala) amidst the terror filled scenario of conspiracies and freedom struggle and so love does not seem to be an easy issue in their life.

The biggest obstacles being not only the difference in their status but also the fact that Naren's father is a pro- British landlord awaiting a royal title, whereas Rajjo's father is an anti British freedom fighter. Thus there's no way that their love could flourish under such circumstances. In fact there was a high possibility of Naren turning into a revolutionary for his love for Rajjo and be pitted against his own father. As things escalate from bad to worse, the two are faced with a difficult situation in their struggle to stay together despite the clash in their family values. The striking star-constellated cast also features Anupam Kher and the terrific Jackie Shroff as the dashing freedom-fighter Shubhankar who is also in love with Rajjo.
