It is an action drama which deals with the issue of social inequality and class division. The story revolves around two childhood friends, Kumar (Vinod Khanna) and Shankar (Danny Denzongpa). Kumar belongs to a wealthy family while Shankar comes from a poor family. Despite their different backgrounds, they share a strong bond of friendship. However, their friendship is tested when Shankar gets falsely accused of a crime and is sent to jail. Kumar, who is now a police officer, is responsible for putting Shankar behind bars.

After serving his term in prison, Shankar vows to take revenge on Kumar for betraying their friendship. However, his plan takes a different turn when he realizes that Kumar is now fighting for the cause of the downtrodden and victims of social inequality. Shankar decides to join Kumar in his cause and turns into his ally.

Together, Kumar and Shankar take on the corrupt and exploitative systems of society. They fight against the landlords who exploit the poor farmers, the smugglers who cheat the government, and the corrupt politicians who are in cahoots with the exploiters.

Along the way, they meet a strong-willed woman named Kaajal (Shabana Azmi) who becomes a member of their team. Kajal is also fighting against injustice and discrimination, especially towards women. She becomes a love interest for both Kumar and Shankar, which puts their friendship to another test.

The music of the movie is composed by Bappi Lahiri and the songs are popular even today. The song "Chahiye Thoda Pyar" by Kishore Kumar is particularly memorable.

The performances by the lead actors are solid. Vinod Khanna delivers a powerful performance as the conflicted police officer who ultimately chooses the path of justice over his privileged life. Danny Denzongpa shines as the angry young man who realizes the futility of revenge and joins hands with his friend to fight for a greater cause. Shabana Azmi gives a nuanced portrayal of a woman who is self-reliant, brave, and compassionate.
