Ajay 1996

Set in the small town of Kishengarh, Ajay, [Sunny Deol], runs a dairy and poultry business with straightforward honesty. He crosses paths with Manorama “Rama,” [Karisma Kapoor], a foreign-returned, headstrong niece of two powerful landlords, Raja Brijraj Singh and his younger brother, Ranbir Singh. Their first meetings are fiery clashes born from class and pride, but those initial skirmishes gradually soften into a deep mutual attraction that slowly blossoms into love.

As their romance grows, the powerful uncles react with ruthless determination to keep them apart. They wield their influence and threaten Manorama, forcing her into an unthinkable betrayal: she must provide false testimony that lands Ajay in jail. The consequences ripple outward in tragedy—Ajay’s sister is disowned by her in-laws, and Ajay’s mother dies from heartbreak as the family’s world unravels.

After his release, Ajay, unaware of the immense pressure his beloved faced, is overwhelmed by grief and anger, blaming Manorama for the pain that touched his family. He sets out on a path of vengeance, a path that seems justified in the moment but grows more complicated as the truth begins to surface. The pivotal revelation changes everything: Manorama was a victim, coerced by her uncles and forced to submit to their brutality.

With the truth in hand, Ajay’s rage shifts away from Manorama to the real perpetrators— Raja Brijraj Singh and Raja Ranbir Singh. The story pivots toward a hard-hitting quest for justice, driven by his enduring love for Manorama and a vow to heal the wounds inflicted on his family. The climax erupts in a violent confrontation as Ajay takes on the corrupt uncles and destroys them, bringing a grim but definitive end to a saga defined by class conflict, betrayal, and intense emotional life.

The tale remains anchored in the textures of a small-town world—where loyalty, honor, and the pressure of wealth collide, and where love is tested by perilous power. Through Ajay’s pain, the film explores whether love can survive when the people who should protect it become its fiercest threats, and whether justice can be served when truth arrives too late for some.
