Plot

A fruit merchant with ties to a smuggling organisation, Paru Kelewali, is allied with Pandu Havaldar, a hilarious person whose outfit undermines any attempt to appear authoritative. Pandu Havaldar is a corrupt police officer. The police officer humanises himself by rescuing a deaf and stupid woman, therefore breaking up the gang.
