Aashiq

Mathur is Sapna's brother, a suspended police officer who strongly opposed Sapna's elopement with her lover. Since Chander helped facilitate that elopement, Mathur holds a personal vendetta against him. This grudge drives Mathur to target Chander repeatedly throughout the film, even wrongfully arresting him for Pooja's kidnapping despite knowing Chander was innocent.

The elopement scene establishes Mathur's fury and sets the stage for his relentless pursuit of Chander.

Chander's father staged a clever trick at a wedding where another man named Chander was getting married. During the event, Chander heard the anonymous caller (Pooja) speaking, and her voice matched the 'dream girl' he had been curious about. This confirmed that the woman he had been talking to was indeed Pooja.

Earlier, Pooja had been calling Chander anonymously as the 'dream girl' and flirting with him over the phone.

Despite being Chander's childhood friend, Jai orchestrated Pooja's abduction and handed her to Baburao, a city pimp. The exact motivation for Jai's betrayal is not explicitly detailed in the summary, but his actions suggest he was either coerced or had his own hidden agenda that conflicted with Chander and Pooja's relationship.

Jai volunteered to arrange a meeting between Chander and Pooja in a deserted area, which provided the opportunity for the abduction.

Jai was killed at the airport during the climactic showdown. While Chander fought Baburao, Jai was struck by a stray bullet fired by Baburao. The bullet hit Jai in the forehead, killing him instantly. This occurred as Mathur then shot Baburao from behind to save Chander.

Jai's earlier betrayal and leading Chander into dangerous situations set up his tragic fate.

Mathur shot Baburao from behind during the airport showdown, which appeared to help Chander. However, Mathur's true motivation remains ambiguous, he may have been eliminating a criminal threat, taking revenge for the chaos Baburao caused, or perhaps ensuring Chander didn't take the law into his own hands. The act earns him a salute from Bawander Singh, who had resigned in protest earlier.

Mathur's vendetta against Chander had intensified throughout the film, making his sudden help surprising.

After being detained and interrogated by Inspector Mathur and constable Ashok Saraf, Chander fought back and escaped with help from his allies. The summary mentions he escaped with help but does not provide specific details of how his allies assisted him in breaking free from the police station.

The escape sets up Chander's continued search for Pooja and intensifies Mathur's vendetta.

Pooja comes from a wealthy but troubled family. Her parents disapproved of her relationship with Chander and pushed her toward an arranged marriage with another suitor. When Chander confronted her father at home, he faced abuse and a physical altercation, which further escalated the conflict between the two families.

The opposition sets up the confrontation that drives a wedge between Chander and Pooja.

An Arabic buyer from Dubai had arranged to purchase Pooja for 50 lakh rupees (5 million rupees) with the intention of flying her out of India. This added a ticking clock element to the story, as Chander had to reach the airport before Pooja was taken abroad. The buyer represents the final threat that Chander must overcome to rescue Pooja.

Badru's tip about the impending transfer warned Mathur and Chander about the Dubai buyer's timeline.

Chander located Jai and beat him to force him to reveal the truth and lead him to where Pooja was being held. After confronting Jai, Chander pursued the rescue mission knowing that Pooja was about to be transferred to the Arabic buyer. The chase led him directly to the airport terminal where the final confrontation took place.

Chander had been tracking leads through Badru and his contacts in the city's underworld.

Bawander Singh resigned from the police force in protest against Mathur's actions and the growing corruption within the department regarding how Mathur was handling the case against Chander. Later, after Mathur shot Baburao at the airport, Bawander Singh saluted Mathur, suggesting he recognized Mathur's final act as honorable despite his earlier objections.

The resignation highlighted the internal conflict within the police department regarding Mathur's vendetta.
