Plot
Jayantilal "Ratan" Pandey (Deepak Shirke) is a ruthless criminal. ACP Sanjay Path "S. P." Malhotra (Dalip Tahil) arrests him. Ratan wounds himself and is taken to the hospital, where ACP Malhotra is waiting for his wife Geeta Malhotra (Reema Lagoo), who is in labor. She gives birth to twins. The doctor explains that both babies have a reflection mentality, which means that "what happens with one baby might be felt and reflected by another," depending on the proximity between them. Ratan escapes and takes one of the twins with him, injuring Geeta. ACP Malhotra chases after him, but unable to find his son, shoots fleeing Ratan in an attempt to stop him. The kid grows up as Raja (Omkar Kapoor, then Salman Khan) and finds a girl, Neelam whom he adopts as his sister. He finds another orphan, Rangeela Prakash (Siddhanth Kapoor, then Shakti Kapoor) and becomes his friend. They both together take care of the girl and become small time thieves.
On the other hand, Geeta goes into depression and gets paralyzed. ACP Malhotra takes her to the US for her treatment, where the other twin named Prem Malhotra (also Salman Khan) is brought up. He comes to India as a rock star for a show. He is received by Kishan Sharma (Kader Khan), who is his father's friend and wishes to marry his daughter Mala Sharma (Karisma Kapoor) to him. But Mala is in love with Raja. At the airport, Prem finds Roopa Batwani (Rambha), daughter of Sundari Batwani (Bindu), the organizer of his public shows. Prem falls in love with Roopa. Tony (Jack Gaud), Sundari's nephew, also wishes to marry Roopa. Meanwhile, Mala misunderstands Prem for Raja and starts flirting with him.
