Plot

Maharaja Anup Singh is attacked by his archenemy, the Raja of Rampur, and in the ensuing battle, Anup Singh loses his kingdom and flees for his life. He is thus separated from his infant son Ajit, who has taken refuge in the safety of the jungles with the trusted aide of Anup Singh. Whilst in this compulsory exile, Maharaja Anup Singh is befriended by Vanaraj and with his help goes from Kingdom to Kingdom to ask for help to regain his lost Kingdom. Ajit in the meanwhile grows up in wild jungles among the wild animals, not knowing that he is the son of beloved Anup Singh. The Raja of Rampur along with his daughters is travelling through the jungles when they are attacked by a band of Dacoits. Ajit, who was nearby hears the cries of their distress, comes to their aid and saves them from the Dacoits. The Raja is very pleased with the bravery of Ajit and appoints him as a captain in his Palace Army. Ajit falls in love with the Raja's daughter Jwala.

The people of Seema Desh are completely frustrated with the evil and treacherous rule of Kumar, the son of the Raja of Rampur, and his wicked Minister Vikram. The once rich and prosperous people are now nothing but poor, unhappy paupers with no pride and dignity in them. Anup Singh cannot tolerate this vile treatment to his subjects and, with the help of friends, becomes a dacoit, robbing only the treasures of the Raja of Rampur.

Not knowing the real identity of his father, nor knowing the real reason of the looting of the treasures by Anup Singh, Ajit takes upon himself the challenging and gruesome task of capturing the Dacoit. Thus father and son engage in a fight to the finish.
