Plot

An honest Hindu pandit (priest) is framed for embezzlement and rape, and not only dismissed from employment, but also arrested and imprisoned, leaving behind his family in destitution. On his return from prison, he is unable to locate his family, and plans to avenge his humiliation. But the challenge is that how can a former pandit, ex-convict, penniless, homeless, and without any resources, avenge himself against the cunning and manipulative people who framed him?
