Before dying, the village priest curses the snake charmer, Raka for killing him and making his son Ravi (Rakesh Roshan) an orphan.

His only son Nagraj (Mithun Chakraborty) becomes the victim of the curse where he will be incarnated as a snake, killing anyone who makes contact with him. Things take a dramatic turn with the mysterious death of Poonam. Ravi investigates his sister's death to find out Nagraj is the culprit.
