Storyline
A man is released from prison after 24 years for a crime he didn't commit. He plans to kill the three men who framed him, but discovers his own son—who he thought would be a criminal—is now a police officer. The father's quest for revenge puts him in direct conflict with his son, who is sworn to protect the same men.
“A father's revenge pits him against his own son.”

Trivia
- This was the only Hindi film directed by the popular Tamil filmmaker K. Bhagyaraj, who also directed the original Tamil version.
- The film's plot is a remake of Bhagyaraj's own 1982 Tamil film 'Antham', which also starred him in the lead role.
- Actor Sridevi, who plays the female lead, was at the peak of her career and shot for this film simultaneously with many other big hits.
- A key action sequence involving a helicopter was considered a major and expensive technical feat for its time in Hindi cinema.
- The film's climax, pitting a father against his policeman son, drew comparisons to the Hollywood film 'The Enforcer' from 1976.
- Despite its star cast, the film did not perform well commercially, overshadowed by other major releases that year.
- The soundtrack, composed by Bappi Lahari, included the hit song 'Aakhree Raasta' sung by Kishore Kumar.
