The movie revolves around the life of Suraj (played by Choudhary), who is a small-time thief and is always on the lookout for an opportunity to make a quick buck. He meets Aarti (played by Khanvilkar), a journalist, who is investigating a corruption scandal involving a well-known businessman in the city. Suraj and Aarti meet under unusual circumstances and soon become friends.
However, things take a turn for the worse when Suraj and his friend Ganesh (played by Makarand Anaspure) accidentally stumble upon a conspiracy plot to assassinate the Chief Minister of Maharashtra. With the help of Aarti, Suraj and Ganesh set out to unravel the plot and stop the assassination.
