He takes refuge in Ranjeet Singh's house, but his aim remains to kill the treacherous police officer who had killed his parents and his loving sister. At first, Ranjeet Singh's family don't like Badal and are afraid of him because he is a total stranger to them, but eventually, the family members grow fond of him.
