Geraftaar

Kapil Kumar Khanna, his wife Durga and their two sons Karan and Kishen live a joyful family life. Karan is mischievous and often angers his parents with pranks. We glimpse the close-knit dynamics that anchor the story's emotional core.

During a police operation, Kapil Khanna and his team arrest Vidyanath and Ranjit Saxena for illegal drugs. The criminals try to kill him by using heavy machinery, and Karan, in a bid to save his father, pulls the wrong lever. Kapil Khanna is killed, and Vidyanath accuses Karan, provoking Durga's furious reaction.

Durga's grief-stricken anger drives Karan away from home. Overcome with despair, he runs toward the sea and attempts suicide. Hussein, a kind stranger, rescues him and brings him to his home, where Karan finds a new family and a sense of belonging.

Flash-forward shows Durga moving with Kishen as he grows up, while Karan and Hussein's childhood is depicted in parallel. The two boys lead separate lives but share a bond of kindness and resilience. As years pass, Kishen pursues acting, while Karan remains connected to Hussein.

Kishen, now an aspiring actor, falls for Lucy, a fellow struggling actress. Anuradha makes a dramatic entrance and collides with Lucy in a street accident. Kishen pursues Anuradha to the police station, where she is jailed after a tense confrontation.

Anuradha is released from jail and immediately plots revenge against Kishen. She makes a bet with a friend to ruin him, setting in motion a scheme that will affect multiple lives. Kishen begins to sense a dangerous new threat in her actions.

Kishen secures a job as a chauffeur for Durga, bringing a measure of stability. Anuradha uses the role to humiliate him, even putting her feet in his face. Enraged by the humiliation, Kishen resigns from the job.

Anuradha pretends to be kind to Kishen and Durga, winning their trust for a time. She swears in a temple that she will marry Kishen, but he remains wary of her true intentions. After a dramatic sequence, Kishen forcibly takes her to the temple and they marry.

Durga collapses and needs an operation, forcing Kishen to arrange for the money. Vidyanath offers funds as part of a larger scheme, and Kishen accepts, hoping to save his mother. The operation proceeds, but the underlying plot to manipulate Kishen deepens.

Vidyanath stages a fake shooting for a play in which Kishen and Lucy participate, secretly recording the voices and the gunshot. He uses the tape to threaten Kishen, while Lucy later dies under mysterious circumstances. Kishen is drawn into a criminal web that seems to trap him.

Lucy's death shocks everyone and Kishen is arrested. In court, evidence is inconclusive, and he remains in remand as Vidyanath's gang moves to eliminate him. A brutal jailbreak attempt and a mysterious ally test Kishen's resolve.

Inside the jail, Kishen encounters a mysterious man who speaks in riddles. It is revealed that this man is Karan Kumar Khanna, Kishen's long-lost older brother who survived the family tragedy. Karan shares his childhood memories, bonding with Kishen and hinting at plans for revenge.

Durga learns from her father that Karan is alive, and she realises the man who saved Kishen in jail is her own son. Karan returns to protect Kishen without revealing his identity, and the brothers vow to bring down Vidyanath and Ranjit together.

Hussein is murdered by Vijay as part of the criminals' gambit, and Karan vows revenge. The loss strengthens the brothers' resolve to dismantle the criminal alliance and protect their family. Durga supports their decision from the shadows of the conflict.

Karan and Kishen orchestrate a counter-move that takes down Vidyanath, Ranjit and their gang. Vijay is killed by Karan, and the corrupt network collapses. The brothers reconcile with Geeta, and Karan finally marries Geeta, bringing the siblings together at last.
