Description

Harnek Singh alias Nek (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) is an honest farm worker who works hard for his employer, landlord Jagirdar Joginder Singh (Amrish Puri). Nek is in love with village belle Kammo (Rama Vij) and hopes to marry her after he accumulates enough wealth and some land. But one day Jagirdar, unable to conceive a child with his wife Jassi (Sushma Seth), sets a plot into motion. While Nek is away on a work assignment, he will pursue Kammo. After the landlord rapes Kammo, secrets, trauma, and the twists of love and fate reverberate through multiple generations.
