During an assassination of her parents she disappeared, and during the last ten years her grandmother, queen Rajmata(Durga Khote) has been looking for her. Raja finds a street dancer named Shanno(Hema Malini), and finally, after extensive training of teaching the etiquettes so they can disguise and present her as the long lost princess so they can get the reward money from finding her, she enters the house as the long-awaited princess.
