The British government have taken over their rule in a deserted region in India, but some of the people there strive for freedom. One of these brave freedom fighters is Palay Khan, who owes his intelligence to the entire region.

But in retaliation, Palay and his gang kidnap Helen, the daughter of British General Bonz, but eventually, Palay and Helen fall in love.
