Jagdish (Mithun) and his wife Savitri (Ritu Parna) were a picture of Happiness, without any worries. Jagdish only had two things to do in life-one was to manage his files at the office and then to lose himself in love with his wife. He only had one weakness - he was a very scared person, even a rat in the house could give him sleepless nights.

The first turning point came in his life when the mill-owner (Punit Issar) killed Jagdish's friend right in front of his eyes and he could not do anything about it. His friend's wife call Jagdish a coward and Jagdish is left with nightmares and the echo of his friend's wife.

The next turning point came in his life when he was doing the role of Alfred (A revolutionary) in a drama. Alfred was a man who could not tolerate any injustice. In sort time, Jagdish becomes Alfred and kills the mill-owner and then one by one all the people do injustice. The police are looking for the killer.

Jagdish suspects his wife's fidelity and plans to murder her. He takes her to Ooty where Jagdish's friend rapes her and murders her. Seeing his, Jagdish goes mad and takes his friend to see the play 'Alfred'. There, he forces his friend to confess his crime and then he asks the public what should be done with him. When the public demands that he should kill the wrong doer, Jagdish kills him and tells the police who he is.

Does Alfred become a hero?
What do you think happens next?
