The youngsters engage in several illegal activities right from chain-snatching to selling illegal liquor. When not smoking drugs, some of them indulge in gambling and pick up nasty street fights.

On the other hand, Vijay Borade (Amitabh Bachchan), sports coach at St John's School and a social worker is on his cusp of retirement.
