Based on the hit Broadway musical, West Side Story, Mansoor Khan's film opens in Vasco, a small town in Goa. The picture-perfect scenario has one spot of bother - two youthful gangs who cannot see eye to eye. The Eagle gang is headed by Christian Max (Shah Rukh), who dislikes the newer Hindu entrants into town. Prakash (Sharad Kapoor) is the leader of the rival Bichchoo gang. The two gangs regularly have showdowns on the streets of Vasco, which are ended only by the arrival of the police inspector (Sharat Saxena) or intervention of the local priest.

Prakash's younger brother Rahul (Chandrachur Singh) returns to his hometown after completing his studies in Mumbai. The city-bred Rahul does not agree with Prakash's violent principles. And when he sees Max's twin sister Shirley (Aishwarya Rai) it's love at first sight for him. He changes his plans of returning to the city and decides to stay back and open a pastry shop. At first, Shirley derides Rahul and even sabotages his big consignment by planting a basketful of rats in his shop. But slowly Rahul wins over he respect by maintaining his self respect in the face of Max's acts of violence.

On the side, Prakash and his goons help an unscrupulous real estate agent to vacate houses in Vasco for a fee. Rahul suggests a more intelligent way for Prakash to make money by finding out the real owners of the football field. At the Land Records' office, Rahul stumbles upon the name of Mrs D'souza. He goes to meet her and learns that Max and Shirley, the illegitimate children of the Portuguese owner of the town, Vasco.

When Rahul confronts Max and reveals this to him, Max is disturbed. Meanwhile, Prakash and his goons plan to kill Max with his own gun to make it appear like suicide and take away the land. They trace Max to an abandoned graveyard and begin to put their plan in action. Rahul finds out about the plan and goes behind them. But by the time he arrives with Shirley, it is too late. He sees his brother Prakash dead and Max is arrested by the police for the murder.

An experience in jail sobers Max. In court, only Rahul's timely testimony saves Max from a death rap. When he comes out of jail, Max himself goes to Rahul and his mother and asks for his hand in marriage for Shirley.
