- Leela (Shubha Khote) and Bholaram (Sujit Kumar) are a childless couple. Leela is a midwife, and one day assists Sunderdas' (Shreeram Lagoo) wife to give birth to twin boys. She decides to keep one baby for herself and tells Sunderdas that his wife has given birth to one child. There are complications for the mother, and she passes away without seeing her children.
Leela and Bholaram bring up Kanhaiya (Anil Kapoor), while Sunderdas attempts to bring up Kishen (Anil Kapoor) but is unable to do a good job. So he marries Kamini (Bindu), who comes along with her brother, Ghendamal (Amrish Puri), to live at the estate. Ghendamal was actually the manager of Sunderdas's estate and had convinced him of the virtues of Kamini. One day Sunderdas finds that Kamini has an illegitimate child named Mahesh (Dalip Tahil) from another man (who left Kamini without marrying her).
When Sunderdas learns this, he is threatened and attacked (Ghendamal pushes him down the stairs). As a result, he is paralyzed, unable to move. Ghendamal and Kamini are unable to kill Sunderdas because as per his will, if any one of Sunderdas or Kishen die, the entire estate will go to charity. Kishen will be able to transfer the property to anyone he wants after he turns 25, when he becomes the legal owner of the property.
Kishen is brought up by Kamini and Ghendamal with a lot of abuse and intimidation. He is kept illiterate, so that he can blindly thumbprint whatever documents he is asked to sign. Kanhaiya is brought up to be street-smart. fighter and movie-crazy young man. That's how he meets an equally movie-crazy, rich and spoiled girl, Anju (Madhuri Dixit), and they fall in love. Anju is Vidyacharan's (Saeed Jaffrey) daughter, who is a rich industrialist. Sridhar (Ranjeet) is Vidyacharan's business partner. Vidyacharan is good friends with Ghendamal. Ghendamal wants Mahesh to be wed to Anju. Vidyacharan also offers to buy the old Haveli for 70 Crores and plans to erect a luxury hotel in its place.
Kanhaiya borrows laundry clothes from his friend Lobo (Johnny Lever) to impress Anju and pretends to be a rich industrialist in front of her. One day Kanhaiya accidentally steals Sridhar's car to pretend that it is his own, to impress Anju. They flee at high speed and are pursued by Sridhar. Eventually the car has an accident and was carrying a briefcase with Rs 50 Lakhs, which falls into a nearby ravine. The money belonged to Vidyacharan who blames Sridhar for the loss. When Anju brings Kanhaiya to meet Vidyacharan, he exposes Kanhaiya as a fraud and a pauper. They also know about Lobo. Anju is hurt. Sridhar also demands the missing Rs 50 Lakhs from Kanhaiya and tortures him for the same. Leela dies trying to save Kanhaiya and Sridhar shoots him. Bholaram rescues Kanhaiya and takes him to a hospital.
Kishen likes Radha (Shilpa Shirodkar), a servant, and is married to her (Ghendamal thinks if the daughter-in-law is illiterate as well then it will be much easier to control them both), but the atrocities do not stop as Mahesh tries to sexually assault her. Kishen turns 25 and becomes legal owner of the estate. Ghendamal wants Kishen to sign over the papers to him, but Kishen refuses when he sees that Sunderdas doesn't want him to sign the papers. Mahesh beats him black and blue and takes his thumb print by force. Finally, Ghendamal asks Mahesh to kill Kishen by throwing him off a cliff after getting the property papers.
The one secret that ties the brothers together is their reflex action - if one is injured the other feels the pain, too. Only Bholaram makes the connection after Kanhaiya returns home. He tells Kanhaiya the truth about his birth. Kanhaiya learns of his past and returns to the ancestral mansion, shocking everyone. What also shocks everyone is his changed attitude. He denies his signatures on the papers signed by Kishen. This stops the sale of the Haveli from Ghendamal to Vidyacharan. Bholaram tells the truth to Sunderdas as well and introduces Kanhaiya to him.
Kanhaiya now plays games and tells Kamini that he will sign the papers only under her name and not Ghendamal. Then he tells the same story to Ghendamal and turns them against each other. He beats Mahesh black and blue. Radha understands that this is not her Kishen and Kanhaiya admits but asks her to keep quiet. Meanwhile Kishen has survived and picked up by Anju and takes him to Lobo. He has lost his memory and Anju works on bringing it back. When Kamini and Ghendamal confront Kanhaiya (thinking he is Kishen), he beats them mercilessly. But then Vidyasagar comes across a photo of Kishen and identifies him as the fraud Kanhaiya. He tells Anju, who is intrigued and takes the real Kishen to the Haveli. As Kishen waits in the car, Anju finds Kanhaiya in the Haveli, who tells her the whole story. Kishen comes out of the car and enters the house and Mahesh, Kamini and Ghendamal learn the secret that Kishen and Kanhaiya are twins.
Sridhar abducts Kanhaiya and beats him. Kishen gets his memory back but is abducted by Mahesh and Ghendamal. When Sridhar tries to sexually assault Anju, Kanhaiya gets his strength and beats him up. Kanhaiya goes to rescue Kishen. The bros team up to defeat Mahesh and Ghendamal and rescue Sundardas from Kamini.
