Story[]
Dhonga, a wealthy criminal, plans on assassinating the Police Commissioner (Dara Singh), but his attack is foiled with his younger brother being killed by Ram Sinha (Jackie Shroff), an unemployed individual. Dhonga goes to prison for five years and swears to avenge the humiliation and murder of his brother. Ram Sinha becomes an inspector, joining fellow inspector Kavi (Aditya Pancholi) in imprisoning various drug dealers and pimps, including those who work for Dhonga. While Ram marries Kavi's sister Anjali and fathers a son, Dhonga returns from prison and plots to legally run his criminal empire with the help of some cops and his lawyer Srivastav (Alok Nath), aiming to get the respect of the Police Commissioner. Dhonga's other brother Satpal (Mukesh Rishi) hatches a plot to murder Anjali, and plants heroin and cocaine in his house, so that Ram gets arrested. Ram escapes his arrest with the help of Ritu, proves his innocence to the Commissioner, and kills all his enemies while rescuing his son and Kavi, who both were kidnapped by Dhonga.
