action

The deaf and mute Sir Judah wants to snatch the Ranimaa property under the nail. This belongs to Shanta Prasad and his son Ravi Verma. The court awards Ravi the property and Judah does not want to let this sit on her. That's why he hatches a plan: The pretty Kamini should seduce Ravi and marry. Then she should kill him, so that the property passes to Judah. The plan succeeds and Ravi's mother and sister are evicted from the property.

21 years later: Monty is a successful singer and he has a promising career ahead of him. Things are also going well privately: he falls in love with Tina and her uncle Kabira quickly fell in love with Monty. But in Kabira's environment, Monty suffers from nightmares. He soon realizes that he is the reincarnation of Ravi. With the help of Kabira, who was a friend of the Ranimaa estate, he wants to seek revenge.

All untruths come to light. Judah tries to get in the way of Monty, as does Kamini. But both die trying to kill Monty. Both are punished with death and Monty releases his bad dreams and marries Tina.

criticism

"" Karz "is a treasure trove for analyzes and screenshots. However, since Ghai simply did not stage it tightly enough and repeatedly throws the narrative flow off course through sloppy montage, it is not enough for higher consecrations. The strip is definitely worth seeing. "
