Plot edit
The story revolves around Vijay (Navin Nischol) being convicted for forgery/fraud/murder related crimes in a court of Law, where, his trial proceeding is headed by a judge and being charged of all the crimes by the public prosecutor (Iftekhar). Vijay refutes all charges levied onto him and pleads Not-Guilty for all the crimes he has been charged with. He eventually ends up standing up his own case, as defence lawyer seemed to be too timid to save him. Anjali (Rekha) helps Vijay in the trial proceedings with all her might and wealth and they finally find out that it was the guy in the disguise of Vijay's friend Ranjeet (Rakesh Pandey), who was behind all this plot. This guy resembled Vijay cent percent, hence, all the people mistook Vijay for being the fraudster.
