"Meri Zabaan" is a power-packed motion picture story about a young man who has the mind of a computer and a heart of gold. He is Krishna, the son of Vikram.

Vikram, the crime reporter of a journal named "Meri Zabaan" not only writes against traitors of the country but also often catches them red-handed. Pleased with his bravery, Raja Vijay Singh awards him with a Gold Medal on behalf of the Social Club. But a cunning move on the part of the enemies of the society, not only  make him look guilty in the eyes of Law and frames him for a crime that he never committed, but also drives his wife to insanity. Their helpless son Krishna is forced to take up odd jobs in the streets to be able to earn enough money to look after his mother and treat her malady.

Raja Vijay Singh discerns an extra-sharp and intelligent brain possessed by Krishna and he advises him to use his mental faculties for proper objectives. Krishna accepts his advice as God's Truth and on growing up, he becomes an amazing computer mind who has a record of every crime that takes place in the city and extorts a protection tax from every criminal.

The pretty girl Kimi who sells illicit liquor in the locality, is infatuated by Krishna and is madly in love with him.

But Krishna is trapped in the love of a clever girl named Baby. The greatest aim in Krishna's life is to cure his insane mother. By a strange coincidence, Baby, who is the daughter of the villain Ranjeet, is also the daughter of the woman who is the best friend of Krishna's mother. One day Baby comes to know that the dark-complexioned, noble Christian woman who had brought her up is not her real mother. This secret brings Krishna and Baby nearer to each other and they enter into an agreement. It is agreed between them that Baby will look after Krishna's mother and nurse her back to sanity and, in return, Krishna will search for and identify the real parents of Baby and restore them to her.

Was Krishna able at last to restore Baby's parents to her?

Was Krishna's mother able to recover her sanity and her lost memory and could she accurately tell what had happened in the Dark Past?

Was Krishna able to search out, arrest and punish those guilty people who had trapped his innocent father?

And who were those nameless, faceless, very important people, who had framed Krishna's father?

"Meri Zabaan" is an intriguing answer to all these questions - a movie that will draw you into a vortex of thrills, suspense and high-voltage drama!
