) is killed by drug dealer and gangster Goli (Shakti Kapoor
). Mona (Shilpa Shetty
), a cabaret singer and Goli's mistress, agrees to testify against Goli and is placed into witness protection by Inspector Karan (Akshay Kumar
), Arjun's younger brother, who aims to fight any injustice and avenge his brother's murder. When Goli finds out about Mona's forthcoming testimonial which would expose his real identity, he tracks her down and kills her.

Karan meets Basanti who is an identical duplicate of Mona. He promises to let Deepak hang around him if Deepak can get Basanti to pose as Mona. Deepak trains Basanti and presents the new "Mona" to Karan. Karan places Basanti at the Moonlight Hotel as an amnesiac Mona, where she can report on Goli's criminal activities. That's how they uncover Goli eventually. While Karan and Mona fall in love with each other, Deepak falls is love with Karan's sister, Shivangi.
