This film was not only one of the best movie of Amitabh Bachchan but also of Bollywood film industriy released in 80s. Film was a remake of tamil film Oru Kaidhiyin Diary starring Kamal haasan but it is one film where remake was better than original. Hindi remake has better execution of script and also has impressive dialogues by Rahi masoom raza. Climax of movie is also different from original and better. As it was directed by the screenplay writer of original movie, probably he corrected some mistakes of his own script and added few scene with good dialogues. Each and every dialogue of movie is impressive like one other Hindi film Sholay. Film is a revenge drama in which an old man released from jail after 24 yrs for a crime he didn't committed takes revenge on the people responsible for murder and rape of his wife and falsely implicating him.in all those years he thought of taking revenge with the help of his son who has been brought up by his close friend and who has promised to make him a dreaded criminal but upon his release he found out that his friend has betrayed him and his son is now a police officer. Now he has no option but to execute revenge himself and both father and his son are standing on the opposite sides of law.
