Jaan (1996)

Police Commissioner Suryadev Singh is a doting grandfather to his only granddaughter, Kajal. However, unbeknownst to Suryadev, Kajal's life is under threat from his embittered cousin, Vishamber. Vishamber's father had bequeathed his entire estate to his nephew Suryadev instead of Vishamber. Now Vishamber wants to kill Kajal, thus becoming the sole heir to the inheritance. Some goons attempt to kidnap Kajal but a bystander, Karan, fights them off and rescues her. Impressed, Suryadev appoints him as Kajal's bodyguard and they both leave for the town of Sundernagar, which is their ancestral home. However, Suryadev does not know that the kidnapping as well as Karan's rescue of Kajal were staged in order to win Suryadev's trust and that Karan is in fact an assassin hired by Vishamber to kill Kajal.
