Plot[edit]
The story begins with a wealthy man selling all his estate in Africa, converting it to diamonds. He carries them in a belt. He suffers a heart attack in washroom and requests a passerby to deliver the diamonds to his son, Rajesh (Rishi Kapoor). The man is chased by goons who are after the diamonds. He hides them in a bicycle toolbox. The bicycle belongs to Sanjay Kumar (Tariq Khan), who is completely unaware that his bicycle has 25 Crore Rupees worth of diamonds hidden in its toolbox. Saudagar Singh (Amjad Khan) is after the diamonds and according to his plans he and his partner Ranbir Kumar Dana set a trap for Rajesh telling a false story to him. The whole plot is pretty speedy after that with Rajesh pretending as Manjeet Kumar Dana is to fall in love with Kajal (Kajal Kiran) who is actually in love with her childhood love, Sanjay. A few years ago when mother-less Kajal's father was in deep financial crisis, Sanjay's father gave shelter to Kajal's father, who has now become filthy rich. Kajal's father Kishorilal insults them and forgets the promise that he had committed to marry off Sanjay and Kajal. Now, Sanjay becomes Manjeet's manager. Saudagar Singh (Amjad Khan) uses Manjeet to get the diamonds himself. The plot unfolds later with the climax.
