Plot

Captain Jaswanth Kumar is a lionhearted Indian Army soldier who loses his left arm in the battle. Then, he decides to lead a peaceful life, reaches Bombay, and settles in a colony called Shanti Nagar. Thereupon, he befriends several people, including journalist A.K. Razdan, Raju, a taxi driver, his widowed sister Seema, Chamki Raju's love interest, etc. Here, Jaswanth spots the public dying out of extortion, corruption, and racism made by malefactors under the garb of an association Raksha Mandal led by a chair, Taneja. Jaswanth audaciously challenges their violations and molds scaredy-cat Raju as gallant. Seema adores his idolizes, and he loves her too. Moreover, he awakens the public, who battle against anarchy and depravity. Recognizing it, Taneja blazes and triggers a hazardous goon, Raaka, to eliminate the diehard. Initially, Raaka wars on them, but he is smashed. So, he hoodwinks in the name of friendship as a renewed person. Parallelly, as an anecdote, Raaka loves a prostitute, Shabnam, who carries his child and feels happy about his change. Raaka treacherously implicates and gets Jaswanth & Raju penalized. Then, Razdan collects all the pieces of evidence against Taneja, but miscreants slaughter him. Despite having the ability to save him, Raaka returns. Knowing it, Shabnam tries to get aborted, and everyone shows aversion to Raaka, which makes him repent. As a truly reformed person, he acquits Jaswanth and Raju when they again embrace him. He also succeeds in acquiring the evidence left by Razdan. At last, Taneja moves to destroy the Shanti Nagar, but the three warriors cease him. Finally, the movie ends with Raaka sacrificing his life while guarding the public.
