Then one of his associates, Neera, marries CBI Officer Kumar Sahni, and Vicky is on the run, and believed to be dead when his bullet-proof helicopter crashes. Years later, Neera comes to visit her in-laws in a small town, and is introduced to a kind and saintly person with special powers for healing named Shradhanand.
