The home minister gets the brother killed when he files a case against his (home minister’s) daughter, holding her responsible for his sister’s suicide. One day, Jai helps a family in distress and when the family thanks him, he asks them not to thank him but instead, to pay the good deed forward by helping three needy persons and asking each of the three persons to help three more persons. Unknown to Jai, this system of paying a good deed forward becomes a movement which touches the lives of thousands of people. Simultaneously, Jai falls in love with Rinky (Daisy Shah) who is the neighbour of his sister, Geeta (Tabu).
