Product Description Inspector Arjun Singh of Bombay Police has attained a sordid reputation of being of the most ruthless policemen in India, and is known for his torture and brutality. When a young man is killed in custody, Arjun is spoken to and warned, and subsequently transferred to a small town of Tehsil. Arjun denies these charges and asserts, in vain, that the death was not his fault. Arjun re-locates there, and finds to his horror that the family of the young man who died in his care, are his neighbors, and that this town regards him as enemy number one. Arjun must now come to terms with his past and compromise in this town, and find out what were the circumstances behind this young man's death or just get another transfer.

Good movie
Raj Sippy was known as a good commercial director in his heydays. Movies like Inkaar, Satte Pe Satta, Andar Baahar, Loha, Thanedaar and Satyamev Jayate were not only well made but also had repeat value. This movie, made in 1987, was a simple story of the life of a honest police officer, his fight against the system, against his own past and against a failed love life. Vinod Khanna, in the lead role, gets to portray a gamut of emotions and this is easily one of his better movies. But the best performance in the movie certainly comes from Meenakshi Seshadri. She has the role of a harassed woman, who's treated rather contemptuously by everyone including the lead actor,and her character evokes sympathy among the viewer. Meenakshi has only a few scenes in the movie but almost all of them are powerful (and emotional) and she has acted very well in them. Shakti Kapoor is good as the villain while Vinod Mehra is commendable in a supporting role. Overall an entertaining movie, especially considering the fact that it was made in the 1980s.
