It features an ensemble cast of Dharmendra, Shatrughan Sinha, Karan Kapoor, Madhavi, Mandakini, Kader Khan and Amrish Puri.
The plot centres around three men (Dharmendra, Sinha and Kapoor) who set out to save 25 hostages from a dreaded bandit (Puri) who is on the payroll of the local politician (Khan).
Sher Singh hijacks a bus and holds the passengers as hostages and demands the release of his 25 jailed associates from prison in exchange.
When Amar finds out that Qasim and Karan have double crossed him and masterminded a plan to facilitate the escape of the 25 convicts he must confront them.
There is hardly any tension between Amar and Qasim once the former learns that it’s Hassan for whom they are merrily breaking the law and similarly the volatility of the nitroglycerin is replicated by the stereotypical antics of the bunch playing the convicts who ranged from Joginder of the runaway cult classic Ranga Khush (1975), Sudhir, Mac Mohan, Praveen Kumar, Goga Kapoor, Tej Sapru, Roopesh Kumar and Yunus Parvez to name a few.
