Plot

Vishwa was abandoned by his mother when he was a baby and was cruelly nicknamed "Harami." A kind man named Hajibaba takes him in, raises him, and gives him a new name, Vishwa. Hajibaba also cares for other orphaned children, including Dalal, Dalal's younger brother Chotey, and Shiva.

As they grow up, the children become close friends. However, Dalal and Chotey become jealous because Hajibaba clearly treats Vishwa as his favorite. Driven by jealousy, Dalal murders Hajibaba and falsely blames Vishwa for the crime. Vishwa is arrested, convicted, and sent to prison for five years.

After serving his sentence, Vishwa returns filled with anger and a desire for revenge. Determined to punish those responsible for ruining his life, he becomes willing to do whatever it takes to get revenge, even if it means hurting the people closest to him, including his wife Shiva and their child.
