Gurukant Desai is a young villager who dreams big. Despite opposition from his father, he leaves his village and comes to Mumbai alongwith his wife, Sujata, and brother-in-law, to set up his own business.

Guru and his brother-in-law launch themselves as cloth merchants on a very small scale but Guru’s grit and determination see him scale new heights fast. Soon, he starts a polyester manufacturing plant by taking money from the public through an initial public offer (IPO). Guru grows from strength to strength till he becomes the biggest industrialist of the country.

Another business magnate tries to buy Guru out but Guru, instead exposes the magnate through the media. Soon, Manik Dasgupta, the upright editor of a newspaper, turns against Guru when he realises that he has been using unfair means to grow. Despite Guru treating Dasgupta as his grandpa, the latter exposes the former regularly in his newspaper till, finally, a governmental inquiry is instituted against Guru’s polyester manufacturing units for alleged irregularities.
