Plot summary
Jeeva Natt's clan storms the haveli of their rival Sardar Jatt, killing him and his wife; their son Maula is the only one left alive. Daani raises the boy, and her son Mooda brings him to a wrestling coach who sees his talent and takes him on. Maula becomes a famous fighter, yet violent dreams trouble his nights and he remembers almost nothing about his family. Maakha Natt, a son of the aging clan leader Jeeva, abducts a girl and rapes her in his haveli. Jeeva intends to name a new leader, but his daughter Daaro insists that the place belongs to Noori Natt, his elder son, imprisoned for his obsession with killing.
