==Plot==
The film begins at a mysterious hidden temple of the serpent God ''Sheshnaag,'' where every lunar eclipse the Lord bestows a treasure under the protection of powerful shapeshifting snakes, Pritam Nag and Bhanu Nagin. Here, as a boon, the person who is showered in the moonlight becomes immortal. Aghori the wizard, is eager to acquire that supreme power. He starts destroying snakes. Pritam encounters and defeats Aghori but is unable to wipe him out. Aghori strikes back with his witchcraft, in which Bhanu is wounded. Bhola, a villager rescues her and Pritam and Bhanu become indebted to him. After the death of his father, Bhola goes to stay with his sister Champa, where he is ill-treated by his brother-in-law Bansi and driven out of the house.

Bansi wagers Champa in gambling and when some wicked men try to molest her, she jumps off a cliff. Bhola attempts suicide but is saved by Bhanu, who transforms as Champa and bestows him with wealth. Afterward, they shift to a mansion, where Pritam joins as a servant and trains Bhola to become courageous. Bhola falls in love with Kamini, the daughter of a ruthless Seth Lalchand who traffics animals and is also a disciple of Aghori. Lalchand decides to get Kamini married to his. business partner Vikram and asks Aghori to wipe out Bhola. Aghori bites Bhola to poison him.

Bhanu sucks the poison but gets close to danger when Pritam, with his power, rescues them both. Pritam divulges the fact to Bhola and unites him with his sister, real Champa. Wedding arrangements of Vikram and Kamini are in progress, when Bhola breaks in along with Pritam. Aghori seizes them all, lands at Sheshnaag temple, and extorts Pritam and Bhanu to accomplish the mission of making him immortal by threatening to kill Bhola. Lord Shiva proclaims the only way to eliminate him is to strike on his chest. The movie ends on a happy note with Pritam and Bhanu proceeding towards heaven.
