Description: In the fictional town of Rajpur, Dilip, a Rajput law student from Bikaner, moves into an old, rundown British-era pub. There, he meets Rananjay Singh, known as Ransa, a prince who rejects the beliefs of his father and the aristocracy. Ransa’s bold and fearless nature leaves a mark on the quiet and reserved Dilip.
At the university hostel, Dilip is bullied by a group of students led by Jadwal. They strip him and lock him in a room with Anuja, a young university lecturer. After being released in a humiliating state, Dilip’s brother advises him to move on, but Ransa urges him to take revenge. Hesitant at first, Dilip eventually joins Ransa in confronting Jadwal, but the situation backfires, and both are beaten and thrown out.
Ransa then turns to Dukey Banna, a local leader supporting the Rajputana separatist movement, who promises protection. When Dilip and Ransa are once again outnumbered by Jadwal’s gang, Dukey steps in and saves them. He convinces Ransa to run for General Secretary in the university elections, where his opponent is Kiran, his half-sister.
Kiran’s brother, Karan, kidnaps Ransa and demands he withdraw from the race. When Ransa refuses and mocks him, Karan kills him. Dukey then forces Dilip to take Ransa’s place in the election and rigs the vote to ensure Dilip’s victory. As General Secretary, Dilip falls under Kiran’s influence, allowing her to become the cultural secretary.
Unknowingly, Dilip begins to see the university funds being diverted to the Rajputana movement. When he confronts Dukey, he learns about the separatist cause but realizes he has no power to change the situation. The story unfolds as Dilip navigates the complex web of politics, betrayal, and power struggles in Rajpur.
