Baazigar Film Story:

Ajay Sharma (Shah Rukh Khan) is a young boy who seeks revenge for his father’s death caused by the actions of his trusted employee Madan Chopra (Dalip Tahil). Chopra has two daughters; the elder is Seema (Shilpa Shetty) and the younger is Priya (Kajol). Ajay begins a secret relationship with Seema, and later assumes the role of ‘Vicky Malhotra’, wearing brown contact lenses, to meet Madan Chopra. Chopra is impressed with ‘Vicky’ and Priya falls in love with him. This way, Ajay manages to date both Seema and Priya using different identities.Later, under the pretense of testing her love for him, Ajay convinces Seema to decide to commit suicide with him, when her father arranges her marriage with someone else. They write and sign suicide notes, but he then tells her he was simply testing her and rips up his own note, while keeping hers. They make plans to get married at the registrar’s office the next day.

However, while waiting for the office to open, Ajay takes Seema to the roof of the building and suddenly pushes her off, murdering her. He then discreetly mails her suicide note to her home. Chopra hastily orders the case closed to prevent further embarrassment should the suicide note be discovered. Suspecting that her sister didn’t commit suicide, with the help of her college friend, police inspector Karan Saxena (Siddharth Ray), Priya secretly continues the investigation.Ravi, a college friend of Seema who had a crush on her, finds a photo of Seema and Ajay together at a birthday party. When Ajay finds out about this, he murders Ravi and forces him to sign a suicide note which makes it seem as if Ravi is Seema’s murderer. Thus, the investigation is halted a second time. Meanwhile, Ajay posing as ‘Vicky’ slowly wins Chopra’s confidence.

It is revealed through a flashback that Madan Chopra had been project manager in the company run by Ajay’s late father Mr. Sharma (Anant Mahadevan), but when Sharma discovered that he was embezzling money, he had Chopra imprisoned for three years. After Madan completed his jail term, he asked for forgiveness and Sharma decided to re-employ him. However, unbeknownst to anyone, Chopra had returned to exact revenge. One day, Sharma had to go on a business trip, so he handed a power of attorney to Chopra, who used the opportunity to become the company’s de-facto owner. Sharma learned of this after returning, but it was too late. His family was ejected from their palatial home. Ajay witnessed Chopra molesting his mother when she came to ask for their home back, and she subsequently cursed him to tragedy and helplessness later on in life.

Forced into poverty, Sharma’s newborn daughter died of illness and Sharma died of a heart attack while trying to get her medicine, driving Ajay’s mother insane with shock and unable to recognise him. Heartbroken, Ajay vowed to make Chopra pay. Ajay’s only mission in life now is the downfall of Chopra.Back in the present, Seema’s friend Anjali (Resham Tipnis) discovers a photo of Ajay from college days. ‘Vicky’ and Priya get engaged. Anjali phones the Chopra residence during Ajay’s engagement party to warn them that Ajay and ‘Vicky’ look the same. Ajay intercepts and kills Anjali, throwing her body in the river. A man and his dog find the body soon after, and Priya and Inspector Karan realize that the murderer is still alive.

History repeats itself with Chopra handing over the power of attorney to ‘Vicky’. Ajay decides to hasten his plans on learning that Priya and Karan are hell-bent on finding the killer. His plan hits a glitch when he and Priya run into the real Vicky Malhotra (Adi Irani), Ajay’s friend, whose identity he had taken. Priya becomes suspicious. After returning from his business trip, Chopra is shocked to find that the company is run by the Sharma group. Ajay reveals the truth of his desire to seek revenge and kicks Chopra out after humiliating him.

Priya learns of Ajay’s true identity from Vicky and rushes to Ajay’s home in Panvel. She is shocked to see a marriage locket with photos of him with her sister. Ajay comes home, where she confronts him with his misdeeds. He tells her his story and Priya realizes that it is her father who is at fault. Ajay introduces her to his mother, who hardly remembers him. Suddenly, Chopra arrives at his home, shoots Ajay in the arm and has his goons beat him up.

When his mother tries to intervene, Chopra injures her, angering Ajay. He fights the goons viciously and is about to kill Chopra when Chopra stabs him with a metal rod. Ajay laughs maniacally and impales Chopra with the same rod, killing him. He collapses in his mother’s arms. In his last words, he says that he has regained everything and now only wants to rest. Priya and Karan watch despondently as Ajay dies in his mother’s arms, finally at peace.
