Vasudev Rai lives in a small town with his wife and son, Rohit. Vasudev works as a teacher in a school owned and operated by Gajraj Choudhry. One day, a truck driver named Deva Prakash brings the body of Vasudev to a nearby hospital, and requests the doctor to treat him. The doctor determines that Vasudev is dead, summons the police, and asks Deva to wait until their arrival for his statement. When Deva disappears, he is assumed to be responsible for Vasudev's death. Vasudev's wife and son are devastated. Rohit swears to avenge his father's death and leaves the town. His investigation lets him conclude that the murderer is somewhere near his home town and he returns to find that his town now has a new police in-Charge, Inspector Ajay Kumar. Rohit suspects that Ajay is not who he claims to be and starts making inquiries and unmasks that Ajay is Deva. Accused of killing Vasudev, Deva pleads his innocence but no one believes him. Desperate, he kidnaps Choudhry's daughter Kajal and bolts.{{Cite web|title=Jeevan Yudh - Movie - Box Office India|url=https://boxofficeindia.com/movie.php?movieid=2662|access-date=2021-08-08|website=boxofficeindia.com}}
