Plot
Karan Kapoor (Siddharth Choudhary) is born with supernatural powers, however he is oblivious to the fact until his twenty-first birthday when his powers increase at an alarming rate. He discovers that he was the "chosen one" who was born to defeat evil forces of Markesh (Mohan Kapoor). Teaming up with Gayatri Ji (Sudha Chandran / Sonia Kapoor), he decides to finish the evil.
Meanwhile, he is in senior college, he notices that his classmates were cheating in exams and he discloses the fact to the school head. After that, those students beat him till death, but he is revived by his maternal grandfather Devdutt (Tinnu Anand) with the power of his meditation. As Devdutt uses the seven stars to revive him, he gets filled with the power of seven stars. After that he gets superpowers. His friend Mrinal Deshmukh (Riva Bubber), whom he loved, helps him out with his assignments as helping Karan while Karan saves her from all dangers by becoming Karma. Karma wears a black armor with seven stars in the center and a cape. Karma hides his identity from the people by wearing a mask on his eyes containing seven stars which shows that his power is the power of seven stars. He also throws a star sometimes with a 'K' written on it. He fights Markesh's assassins like Gunshot (Gaurav Chopra), Char Sau Chalis (Vindu Dara Singh), Tilisma (Vicky Ahuja), Gilgit and Sonika to protect the Panaki (The city where he resides). Karan had not got his love Mrinal and Mrinal had not loved her, so karan was searching for anyone else who will take care of his life. At last, in a face-to-face confrontation, he and Markesh find out that Markesh's mother and Karma stars were close and killing Karma will result in Markesh's mother's death too. Therefore, Karma smartly plots to separate Markesh and Markesh's mother, so as to weaken them. In fact, he makes Markesh think that his mother is dead.
