==Plot== Lala Jamal Khan is one of Bombay's underground dons and has several men who carry out all kinds of criminal activities on his behalf. One of these men is Azaad, whom Khan uses to scare people, and who has never failed him. Then Azaad rescues a prostitute named Meena from Ranu Bhai, who owes allegiance to a rival gangster called Bhau, thereby inviting his wrath. Azaad refuses to submit to anyone and helps Meena achieve her goal of becoming a famous singer. He entrusts her to a music director named Dhirendra and watches as she becomes more popular every day. Azaad has fallen in love with Meena, but he is unable to tell her. What Azaad does not know is that Dhirendra has also fallen in love with Meena, and it seems that she is attracted to him too. However, before he can pursue this any further, Azaad must contend with Bhau's hoodlums, who have been instructed to kill him at all costs.
