Megha Timghure (Masumeh) is a plain-looking middle-class girl, living with her Mum, Laxmi (Reema Lagoo), and Dad (Dilip Prabhawalkar), who is employed as an Income Tax Officer. She desires to become a model and a beauty queen. At a party, she is wrongly introduced as Sarika Verma and meets two eligible young men, Rizwan, and Varun Arya (Zulfi Syed). She expresses her wish to become a model and be referred to Almera Kochar (Rati Agnihotri), who has a reputation for bringing out the best in every model, and making them beauty queens. Almera meets with Sarika / Megha, and accepts her as a student, and makes her sign a contract. What Sarika does not know is that she has now become a pawn in a devious plot concocted to protect millions gained by criminal activities on the black market.
