Plot

Shah is the king of a region in Middle-Eastern Asia. When a bandit tribe leader, Razoulli Al-Jabber Al-Nasser and his troops attack their region, the army led by brave Lieutenant Khalid fights back and defeats the enemy troops. Razoulli manages to escape and in the process abducts Khalid's pregnant wife, who gives birth to a baby boy but herself dies during childbirth. A midwife professes that the baby boy is a blessed one and is destined to become the Sultan (King) of the sultanate in future. Hearing this, Razoulli decides to keep the boy with himself, as Razoulli's wife was unable to give birth to a male child to continue his lineage. He then tells Khalid that both his wife and child died during childbirth. Razoulli raises and teaches the boy all the war skills and names him Sultan. Meanwhile, Khalid remarries and has a second son Samir who is sent abroad for raising and educating him in a secure environment. Khalid, who is the general now, then takes an oath to kill Razoulli. Sultan grows up to become a powerful warrior and a capable leader of his people.

Princess Yasmeen is the beautiful daughter of the king. Sultan gets smitten by princess Yasmeen and dares to look into her eyes during her cavalcade. She asks him to bow before her or face punishment, instead he kisses her. As its consequence, Sultan is captured and tortured by Yasmeen's troops at her behest. He is then made to enter a death race. He escapes from it and abducts Yasmeen. Eventually after some skirmishes between them, they both fall madly in love with each other.

Razoulli is later killed by General Khalid and his wife loses her senses. Sultan swears to avenge his father's death, and finds out that the person responsible is General Khalid. Sultan learns that Khalid's son, Samir and his fiancée, Zarina, are to arrive. He plans to abduct them. Khalid discovers Sultan's intention and decides to kill him. When Samir and Zarina arrive, Sultan overpowers them, though in vain as they manage to escape as Khalid comes to rescue them. Meanwhile, Khalid is captured by Sultan's men. Khalid and Sultan decide to fight a duel till death. What Khalid does not know is that Sultan is none other than his son, who was abducted at a young age and left with Razoulli. But now it seems that the duel between father and son will only end when one is killed by the other.
