Royal cousins and rulers of adjoining kingdoms King Sohat (Himansu Rai) and King Rajit (Charu Roy) share a reckless passion for gambling, the perilous jungle tiger hunt, and the beautiful maiden Sunita (Seeta Devi). After a tiger nearly claims Rajit's life, Sunita nurses the handsome young king back to health and becomes his bride. Knowing that the only thing stronger than love is Rajit's heart is a compulsive fascination with games of chance, jealous Sohat challenges his cousin to a winner-takes-all contest where the stakes are freedom, marriage, and life itself.
