Plot

Dev Kumar Verma comes from a middle-class family and must find employment to support his parents. Dev, however, has set his mind upon becoming a music sensation like Elvis Presley.

He loses his job because of this, and refuses to work until and unless he gets a job to his liking, much to the dismay of his parents and his brother, Shiv Kumar Verma. Dev does get employment at Charlie's Disco, where he meets Maya and falls in love with her.

When Charlie's Disco's competitor, Rana, finds out about Dev, he wants to hire Dev, but Dev decides to continue to work with Charlie's Disco. Consequently, Dev and Charlie get beaten up by Rana's men, and Dev is unable to sing.

After recuperating, Dev is devastated to find out that Maya and Shiv are in love with each other. What impact this will have on Dev and his brother on one hand, as well as on his career in music forms the rest of the story.
