Plot[]

Raja is portrayed as educated, righteous, honest, challenging, and a daredevil who is unemployed. With no work on hand, he spends his time with his four friends. This upsets his dad and elder brothers Amar and Ravi, who worry about him.

Troubled by a lack of money, the family has many problems. Ravi's pending IAS examination requires money they do not have. To raise money, Raja and his friends take a job getting rid of a Shalu, a tenant who has illegally settled in a house. Raja has an easy time getting rid of Shalu. But from then on, Shalu creates hell for him and moves into his house and life permanently.

Tejpal and Nagpal are power brokers. They succeed in getting Ritu married to Ravi, now an IAS officer, who is about to become a collector. The villains think that this was a perfect strategy: Saxena's sister married to Raja's brother. Raja revolts but is cornered. He has many clashes with the duo. In one of these clashes, Raja's friends and eldest brother Amar are murdered. All is lost until Raja and Ravi discover the truth about Tejpal and Nagpal. Raja and Ravi decide to end the Gundaraj.
