Upstanding police Inspector Arjun Singh (Sunil Shetty) fakes a crime to get himself thrown in the slammer to collect evidence against a crooked jailer. But when his partner on the outside is killed, Arjun finds himself facing a very real life sentence. Held in a prison run by Lankeshwar (Danny Denzongpa), a sadistic warden with ties to the government, Arjun struggles to clear his name and stay alive. Om Puri and Mohan Joshi co-star.
