Storyline

<p>Kachra Seth runs an empire of collecting garbage, which is merely a front to cover-up for his other business like drug trafficking. He recruits a select group of people to carry out unpleasant tasks such as beating someone up, or even killing someone. One of his recruits is Jaggu, who will do anything for a price. Jaggu loves Tina but is afraid to tell her. When Jaggu’s mother is hospitalized, he comes to Kachra for monetary assistance, he is assigned to a task instead, and unable to complete the task he is apprehended by the police with the assistance of a librarian and is subsequently found guilty and sent to prison. Jaggu’s place is taken by Rajeshwar, shortly called Raja, who is also attracted to Tina and even rescues her from one of Kachra’s goons, Chhabile and they fall in love. When Jaggu returns from prison, he finds his mother has died, and his sister missing, believed to have killed herself. In anger, he concocts a full-proof plan to kill the librarian, and does. Jaggu does not know the librarian is none other than Raja’s father and Raja swears to hunt down his father’s killer. When Kachra Seth learns of Raja and Jaggu’s rivalry, he uses his goons also but when Jaggu’s sister comes alive, Raja saves her from street goons, Jaggu goes on kill spree to save Raja from Kachra Seth and his goons. In the end, Jaggu dies in the arms of Raja after Raja kills Kachra Seth. The score and soundtrack were composed by with lyrics by and Tamil lyrics by .

Rahman spins another fizzy, frothy score for this long overdue film. This is vintage Rahman—resolutely stub—born in style—yet, it makes for much pleasant listening.” The soundtrack also proved popular upon release.
