Divya and Vivek hang out with quite a few young people of their own age, Vijay (Sunil Shetty), Atul (Akshay Kumar), Prem (Aftab Shivdasani), Ashok (Aditya Pancholi), Viktor (Sharad Kapoor), Abdul (Arshad Warsi), Nita (Rambha), Rashmi (Kiran Rathod), Niki (Upasana Singh) and Preeti (Pinky Campbell).

Two men- Rajesh (Rajat Bedi) and Madan (Siddharth Ray) attempt to rape Divya, but are stopped and beaten up by Karan. After apologizing, they decide to avenge their humiliation. Soon after, Karan leaves for a business trip abroad. Divya then begins to have suspicion of a past life and later learns that she was the love of Kapil (Armaan Kohli), a snake with magical powers, in a previous life. Their love life was shattered by an angry sage (Amrish Puri) who cursed them with separation until the 21st century. Vasundhara, as she was called in her previous life, dies after this curse, and is reborn as Divya.

Rajesh, under the pretext of inviting Divya to Atul’s party, imitates the voices of the male members of their group and tricks her into coming to an abandoned fort. Divya arrives and they brutally rape her, prompting her to kill herself. Divya’s friends arrive and she curses them, thinking that they were involved in the rape.

The principal Joseph then gives the group of friends necklaces to protect and assures them that they cannot be harmed when they are wearing the necklace. Atul ignore advice. So, when he is attacked by Kapil, he realizes he survived because the necklace was stuck on his hand. However, later Atul is badly injured by Kapil and he goes into a coma.

Atul asks the priest to save Vivek’s life. Atul then dies due to blood loss from his injuries.

Karan shows up to stop Kapil from killing Vivek. Karan gets fatally wounded by Kapil. Principal Joseph resurrects Karan with outer-world powers, granting him supernatural powers like Kapil.
