Mogambo, a ruthless criminal mastermind, aims to take over India. Operating from a secret island, he oversees the sinister activities of his henchmen. His authority is evident through his iconic phrases, such as “Mogambo khush hua” (“Mogambo is pleased”) and “Hail Mogambo,” which his subordinates dutifully repeat.
On the other side is Arun, a kind-hearted street violinist and philanthropist who rents a spacious yet old house to care for ten orphans with the help of Calendar. Struggling financially and burdened by debt, Arun decides to rent out a room on the first floor. His first tenant is Seema, a local journalist who quickly becomes a friend to everyone in the household. Over time, Arun develops feelings for her.
Arun’s life takes a dramatic turn when he receives a letter from Professor Sinha, a family friend. The letter reveals that Arun’s late father, a renowned scientist, had invented a cloaking device capable of rendering its user invisible. As the sole heir, Arun is tasked with completing the patent process. Intrigued, Arun retrieves the device from his father’s old laboratory. The device makes its wearer invisible unless exposed to red light. Arun decides to keep its existence a secret.
Months later, while attending a lavish party as a guest performer, Seema narrowly escapes an assassination attempt by criminals who mistake her for a spy. Arun rescues her by using the cloaking device, introducing himself as “Mr. India.” Seema is captivated by her mysterious savior, but Arun continues to conceal his identity.
Eventually, Arun uses the device to thwart one of Mogambo’s criminal schemes, alerting the villain to the existence of an invisible adversary.
