Storyline

Choudhary Amar Singh is a farmer in rural India and lives a modest lifestyle with his wife, Sharda, and son, Vikraanta. He excels in sugar cane production and is presented an award and a tractor by the State Government. He has named his farm after his son, and expects him to continue farming. Amar's efforts are to remove the debts that he and other farmers have incurred from Zamindars. This does not auger well with Thakur Pratap Singh who arranges Amar's demise. This incident turns the lives of Vikraanta and Sharda upside down, compelling Vikraanta to make a commitment to avenge his father's death - not knowing that he himself is placing his very life in jeopardy.

Trivia

Released during Sanjay Dutt's imprisonment in 1995 but the film had completed shooting in 1994. As Sanjay Dutt was not released on bail for almost nine months, Sultan Ahmed decided his voice will be dubbed by professional voice actor Chetan Sashital. The same situation happened with Sajid Nadiawala's Andolan released in the same month.

User Reviews

Nonsense

This is one of those crap films post KHALNAYAK and Sanju's jail that were flooding the markets

The film released in 1995 and was a washout

The film is a crap nonsense and the story seems done to death

The same dacoit drama which was seen since ages is reproduced

Sanjay Dutt's voice is dubbed by Chetan Shashital as he couldn't get bail and doesn't sound like his at all

Direction is crap Music is crap

Sanjay Dutt is nothing great here, he sleepwalks and his dubbing by chetan shashital is bad Amrish Puri is repetitive and Shabaaz Khan is okay Reema and Alok Nath are their usual selves
