Plot summary

Shiva (Aamir Khan) is blessed with magical snake-charming powers. When he meets Paro (Juhi Chawla) from a nearby village, he falls in love with her. She is also attracted to him. But Paro's father, Choudhry Charanjit Singh, is not pleased with this match, and he hires men to subdue and kill Shiva, all in vain. Little to Shiva's knowledge, during his childhood, his father had attacked and killed a shape-shifting snake in order to fulfill his greed, earning the wrath of the snake's powerful mother, who had promised to exact revenge. Shiva is bitten and believed to be deceased; his family lovingly sends his body afloat a river, which was discovered by Shiva's adoptive father and revived.

He was then brought back to life with the help of black magic and adopted by Baba, who also teaches him about black magic. Their town has a ritual where on naag panchami, whoever kidnaps a girl and takes her to his house can marry them.
