Story

Dr Ram Prasad Ghayal (Amitabh) is a surgeon whose scalpel proves to be a magic wand. He lives with his wife Janaki (Dimple) and brother Bharat. Bharat is in love with a dancing doll Renu (Karishma) whom the baddie's brother Deepak (Deepak Tijori) also loves. Bharat, an architect refuses to sign a power project involving heavy kickbacks and heavier displacement. He is implicated in a plot and sent to jail. Unable to bear this humiliation, he commits suicide and Renu marries Deepak instead of repenting her beloved's loss. Now is the time for our 'Mrityudaata' to avenge the loss of his wife and his brother. He trades his scalpel for a machine gun and apron for a commando coat and cap.

In the last moment Dr. Ram died and was in the position to die, because there was no one who could help him.

Did you konw?
  1. This movie marked the comeback of superstar Amitabh Bachchan after a six-year sabbatical.
  2. Amitabh Bachchan noticed 'Daler Mehendi' at a wedding and was very impressed with his vocals he felt he should sing for his own film. The next day Amitabh rang Daler and Daler recorded the song the very next day when the film was already 90-95% complete. Amitabh called it 'a last minute song'.
