He happens to meet underworld goons looking for such frustrated people, and they force him into the world of terrorism. Rai Bahadur ( Ashish Vidyarthi), the uncrowned king of terrorism, orders Jai to be killed when he revolts. Jai flees to Sharjah and undergoes plastic surgery to begin a new life. He returns to India as Ajay Khanna ( Jackie Shroff), meets his wife Radha ( Ayesha Jhulka), and marries her. They have a baby boy, Ravi Khanna (Sharad Kapoor). Ravi's parents want him to become a police officer to do away with traitors, but they themselves end up becoming a target instead. [3]
