For years powerful landlords have held sway over the poor illiterate farmers, keeping them impoverished, making them work as bonded laborers for paltry loans they had taken years ago, but which now have ballooned with the interest charged on the principal. One such story is of Mukhiya Hardayal, who is on the Panchayat, and is opposed to the cruel practices of Thakur Sher Bahadur Singh. When Hardayal's wife, Krishna, passes away while delivering their second son, Karamveer, he begins to hate, treat him contemptuously, generally ignore him and holds him responsible for his wife's death. Hardayal spends all his love for his elder son, Suraj, who does live up to his father's expectations and excel in his studies, so much so that the Thakur himself loans some money to Hardayal so that Suraj can further his studies in Bombay. After Suraj leaves, Hardayal finds himself enmeshed in the Thakur's loan, unable to re-pay it with the interest, he is severely whipped and made to work as a bonded laborer. Fifteen years later, the work and the beatings have taken their toll on Hardayal, and his spine is fractured beyond repair. Suraj returns home, finds the plight of his father, confronts Thakur, who in turn offers money so that Suraj can go abroad to further his studies. A grateful Hardayal accepts this offer - only to find out that this was another ploy of the wily Thakur to separate Suraj from his family, make Karamveer and Hardayal his laborers. Hardayal continues to work for the Thakur, hoping that one day Suraj will return and all his troubles will be over. What Hardayal does not know that Suraj may never return home, as he has been apprehended with smuggling drugs - and it looks like the Thakur will continue to have his way with Hardayal and the rest of the villagers.

DCP (Deputy Commissioner of Police) Shiv Kumar (Sunil Dutt) is a daring policeman who has just defeated and arrested notorious robber Durjan Singh. He returns home to his wife Sheetal (Rakhee Gulzar) and their young daughter and announces that he has been transferred to Bombay. He has two brothers, Vijay (Amitabh Bachchan) and Ravi (Shashi Kapoor), who live in Bombay. They are intelligent, capable guys, but spend their time loafing about the city and swindling unsuspecting people (for eg they convince a corrupt hotel manager that Vijay has stolen rs 2.5 lakh of jewelry from his employer, and Ravi (a policeman) is looking for him. The manager makes a deal with Vijay to buy the diamonds off him for RS 10000. Thats when Ravi arrives again and threatens jail for helping a robber. The manager pays an additional rs 5000 as bribe to Ravi). Shiv doesn't like their philandering ways. After being swindled by Chacha (Johnny Walker) and Renu (Bindiya Goswami) (Renu appears as a damsel in distress who owes money to Chacha who acts as a money lender. The due date is past and Chacha threatens jail. She offers her Porsche against a loan of rs 30K. The car is worth at least rs 100K. Ravi is besotted with Renu (and was overhearing the conversation) and offers to help her by buying the car for rs 30K. Turns out the car was stolen and lands Ravi+Vijay in jail). Abdul (Mazhar Khan) a crippled street beggar, helps them find Renu and Chacha. Renu and Chacha return the 25K to them, as they already spent the 5k. Vijay is impressed with their work and offers to join forces for the next caper. The idea is to steal a diamond necklace from Maharani Kamalpur when she attends a party at the Sheesh Mahal hotel. They are quickly joined by a glamorous thief, Sunita (Parveen Babi). Sunita manages to steal the necklace before the quartet. But the police condones off the hotel and starts a search of every individual. Sunita drops the necklace in Vijay's pocket, which Vijay notices. He escapes by hiding the necklace in his cane. Vijay invites Sunita to join their gang.. One of their tricks (the duo play god-men who can walk on water) eventually backfires (when Shiv sees their ads all over town and arrests them) and lands Vijay and Ravi in jail. Shiv later bails them out and reads them the riot act at home. Shakaal (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) is an international crime lord operating from a remote island outside India (300 kms from Bombay). Shakaal is a sadistic villain who rejoices in pain of his enemies and traitors. Shiv gets progressively closer to the root of the crimes in the city. Shakaal kills an informant on his crew by feeding him to crocodiles on his private island. A mysterious man (Shatrughan Sinha) tries to assassinate Shiv Kumar twice in the city. Shiv survives both times. After the two attempts on his life, Vijay and Ravi advise him to find a different line of work, arguing that his profession is unpredictable, dangerous and unsuitable for a family man. Shiv stands firm, citing his undying patriotic commitment to his corps and his country. Shakaal has Shiv brought before him by kidnapping him from the city. He compliments Shiv on his wits and valor, and invites him to come to his side. True to his form, Shiv firmly refuses the offer. Shakaal tries to kill him, but Shiv breaks loose and tries to escape from the island. Shakaal unleashes wild dogs upon Shiv and eventually shoots him dead on the beach from a helicopter. As Vijay, Ravi and Sheetal lament their tragic loss, the mysterious man who tried to kill Shiv shows up. Sheetal angrily identifies him as the person she saw escaping at the carnival after the first attempt. The man introduces himself as Rakesh, a marksman and former circus performer who used to shoot targets blindfolded. He was recruited by Shakaal, to assassinate Shiv, by holding Rakesh's wife hostage. Rakesh confesses that he deliberately missed Shiv on the two previous instances, hoping it would buy him time to rescue his wife. On realizing this, an angry Shakaal killed his wife. Rakesh sought out Ravi and Vijay so they could work together to bring down Shakaal. The trio seek the aid of a homeless cripple, Abdul (Mazhar Khan) and manage to find and destroy Shakaal's contraband warehouse in the city. Finding that Abdul was providing Ravi and Vijay with information, Shakaal has his men kill him. Enraged with the destruction of his warehouses, Shakaal kidnaps Sheetal and has her brought to his island. Vijay, Ravi and Rakesh fume, knowing that Sheetal will almost certainly be killed and that they have no clue about the location of Shakaal's island. At this point, Jagmohan (Mac Mohan), another of Shakaal's aides who has been mercilessly crippled by him, offers his help to the group to gain entry to Shakaal's hideout. Posing as a musical troupe (a familiar stratagem in many Bollywood films), Vijay and Ravi (with Renu, Chacha/Uncle and Sunita) enter the island and perform for Shakaal. Shakaal, however, reveals that Jagmohan was sent by him to trap them. Jagmohan's fracture was a lie. Their cover is blown and they are captured. An elaborate sequence ensues as the three men escape. The trio and the widow avoid the booby traps (Vijay is dropped into a tank with the crocodiles and Ravi+Rakesh are in a poison gas filled enclosure fighting 2 of Shakaals men who have gas masks on) and the henchmen ultimately capture Shakaal and finally end his ignominious existence. Shakaal, with his dying breath, sets his island hideout to blow up, but the heroes escape via helicopter to safety.

Mohan works as a clerk in the collector's office (which means he failed the IAS exam). A new collector arrives at the office, and it turns out to be Asha. They tend to work together.. Asha is a strict operator, but treats Mohan with kindness and deference. Asha wears a Mangalsutra and has a kid named Ramesh.. The office is flush with rumors about who the husband is.. Mohan asks for forgiveness for the fraud his family brought on them both. He wants to meet his kid. Asha keeps running into Mohan outside of the office and Mansukh (an office employee) spots them. Mohan goes to Asha's home to meet Ramesh, but is thrown out by Shiv Dayal. Asha is still humble and has lots of respect for Mohan, who is still her husband.. Mansukh brings his kid to the office since he is a widower. The kid tears up important papers and thus Asha forbids him from bringing the child into the office. Mansukh (Johnny Walker) is angry and with his friends, he spreads a rumor across stating that there is an affair between Asha and Mohan. This rumor reaches Seema (Mansukh calls Seema personally) and she is completely disturbed. Mohan misplaces a critical file, for which he should be dismissed (as it would cause loss of rs 2 Lakhs to the govt). But Asha is torn, as she does not want to boss over Mohan.. at the same time, she cannot overlook the rules applicable in the matter.. She gives Mohan 2 days to find the file. Seema discovers the secret of Mohan's affair with Asha. Seems sends her son, who studies in the same class as Ramesh, to Asha's house to check if Mohan is spending time with Asha.. Office employee Dubey takes bribes and hence is never promoted. Dubey aligns with Shiv Dayal and says he will help him bring down Mohan, in exchange for Dubey getting promoted to Mohan's post of head clerk. Dubey slips a box of money in Mohan's bag and makes an anonymous phone call to the office manager Jagdish. The Manager calls the police and Mohan is searched in front of Asha, revealing the bag of money with rs 5000. The bag also has the visiting card of the company whole file Mohan had misplaced. Asha orders Mohan's suspension. Mohan is under financial distress, so Asha sends some money via Suresh (Seema's son) to Seema, but she is offended and sends the money right back. As luck would have it Mansukh's son finds the missing file in office, hidden between magazines. The matter is brought to Asha, who immediately re-instates Mohan. Mohan finds that the bribe money (which Asha had given him to deposit in the official treasury), was wrapped in a drawing paper that he had seen in Asha's house. Mohan confronts Asha at her house.. Ashs convinces her that she is not the one wanting revenge against Mohan. After much turmoil, Seema finds out that Asha and Mohan had married 10 year back before her marriage to Mohan (she finds a photo behind the photo of her own wedding to Mohan). Seema thinks that Mohan cheated on her and got married to Asha very recently. She calls Asha and Ashs confirms that she and Mohan are married, but she doesn't listen to her full explanation. Seema runs away to commit suicide. Ashs comes to Seema's house and finds the situation.. She goes after to save Seema. Asha finds Seema on a mountain where blasting is taking place. Asha tells Seema the whole truth. Blasts take place and Seema is blinded and Asha is badly injured.. Asha gives her eyes to Seema, whose eye-sight went in the accident in which Asha is injured. Asha dies shortly thereafter. The ending scenes show Mohan, Seema, her father, Asha's father, and three kids (two Seema's and one Asha's) altogether paying homage to Asha.
