His employees and alleged well-wishers (Arjun Singh, Jatha Shankar, Munishi Gurbachan, Bhairav) conspire against him and murder his father. His father tells him that his real mother and brother Vijay live in Bombay before he dies. His employees introduce him to his long-estranged mother, Laxmi, and brother, Vijay. Munna is overjoyed, not knowing that they are impersonators. This joy is quite short-lived, as they soon show their true colors, and Munna gets killed. His restless spirit seeks out his real brother and appeals to him to avenge his death. Vijay, at first, thinks he is hallucinating, but when his mother confirms that he indeed had a twin brother, he agrees to accompany Munna's spirit back to where he was killed, and thus assist him complete his vengeance.
