Vicky and Sonia like each other and have no qualms of getting married. Then a series of events shake-up the crew at the site at Sangramgarh as they find that what appears to be an underground palace.

Excellent performance by Salman Khan

Many of you probably remember this 1992 flick because it was Salman Khan's first movie in which he appeared with a six pack. He had appeared in many movies before this but back then he was a skinny guy with no muscles. In this movie it showed that he had worked out and made a new image of himself which later on helped a lot in his success in Bollywood. A nice thriller movie for you all to enjoy.

The manuscript stops abruptly. The final page (bearing the revelation of how the atma may be freed of the curse) is missing. At this point, Vicky realizes that he is the Suryavanshi prince reborn.

The film ends with the couple running into the arms of their waiting parents.
