Plot

Vijay (Amitabh Bachchan) and Ravi (Shatrughan Sinha) are best friends who do not question each other about their careers. Vijay is a police officer and Ravi is a lawyer. While Vijay catches criminals (with the help of an informant named Tony (Pran), Ravi bails those criminals out and is employed by Daaga (Prem Chopra). One day both Vijay and Ravi meet Sheetal (Zeenat Aman) at different places and times, and both fall in love with her. While Vijay’s love is more vocal and is reciprocated by Sheetal. Ravi has one-sided crush on Sheetal who only sees him as a friend.

Ravi admits his love for Sheetal to Vijay who is devastated but decides to sacrifice his love for Ravi's sake. He writes a letter to her saying that they have to give up their relationship for Ravi which accidentally reaches Ravi first, but he doesn't read it. Daaga finds out about Vijay and Sheetal's relationship through a photograph and decides to stir up Vijay and Ravi's friendship by revealing Vijay and Sheetal's relationship to Ravi. Vijay and Ravi become rivals for the first time and Ravi takes Daaga's side in return for making Vijay's life hell. One day, Tony tells Vijay his story: he was in charge of the checkpoints that check trucks. He was threatened by an unknown criminal (apparently Daaga) to let a certain truck through without checking, but he refuses and tips the police off to the truck. In retaliation, Daaga sends a truck to run over him and his family, killing his wife and disabling his son Johnny in the legs. Later, Daaga frames Vijay for killing a criminal he was interrogating for info on Daaga. Ravi defends him on the condition that Sheetal sleeps with him for one night. On the night, he finds and reads the letter that Vijay wrote to Sheetal and repents and rekindles his friendship with Vijay.

Just then, Daaga captures them. Vijay comes to the rescue, but is also captured. Daaga's moll Sylvia (Helen), who is really a spy, and Tony's wife's sister, that gives Tony his info, saves them. Daaga fatally shots Tony, who dies in Vijay's arms with the final wish that Vijay takes care of Johnny, and escapes with Balwant Singh in a plane, but is forced to land by Ravi and Vijay, who are using a jeep and helicopter. Balwant Singh was shot by Daaga because he couldn't run due to ankle sprain while jumping off the charter plane. Daaga attempts to escape , but is caught by Vijay. He tried to shoot Vijay with a pocket gun and got shot dead in return by Vijay instead.
