Shambhu Nath Saxena (A.K. Hangle), one of the companions and reliable man of Satyaprakash, is in jail. Daulat Ram (Satyendra Kapoor) meets Shambhi Nath and helps him to flee by sending a message to Satyaprakash.

Shambhunath meets Satyapraksh and asks him to accompany him to meet some other freedom fighters. Ravi also accompanies his father while Munna remains at home with his mother.

Shambhu Nath introduces Satyapraksh to Daulat Ram (Satyendra Kapoor) and leaves. Daulat Ram introduces Satyaprakash to Mohandas (Madan Puri) and Amirchand (Anwar Hussain). However, It is a trap for Satyaprakash, and Dharmadas (Kader Khan) kills him with a knife while Ravi watches them.

Ravi informs the police that four persons have killed Satyaprakash, and one of them, is an asthma patient.

After a few years

Munna is now DCP Avinash Choudhary (Shahi Kapoor), an honest and upright police officer, and lives with his mother. He reopens the murder case of his father and assures the Commissioner of Police (Raj Mehra) to bring those four murders before the judiciary. Commissioner informs that one of them is an asthma patient and is in Mumbai. He also suggests finding the eyewitness, the elder brother of Avinash.

Grown-up Ravi (Sunil Dutt) has only one aim in his life, which is to kill the murderers of his father. On the other hand, Mohandas has now become Mathur (Madanpuri), Daulat Ram is Raibahadur (Satendra Kapoor), and Thakur Sher Singh is Dharmdas (Kader Khan).

The fourth partner Amirchand, now Babulal (Anwar Hussain), keeps them blackmailing for the murder of Satyaprakash. Babulal has a file that contains details of all the killers of Satyapraksh and the name of the person who gave money to them for the murder of Satyaprakash.
