Summary
Vikramjit Singh (Dharmendra) alias Vicky is an orphan who grew up amidst hatred and poverty. When a local school teacher, Shakarbaba, brings him into his school, Vicky becomes friendly with a young girl named Aarti. They later fall in love and Vicky goes abroad to study. On the day Vicky decides to propose marriage, Aarti is sold by her lecherous uncle, for a few thousand rupees, to a group of men who attempt to rape her, but she kills herself.
An enraged Vicky hunts down her uncle and the molesters and kills them by throwing them from a high-rise building. Vicky's rage turns him into a confirmed Krodhi (Angry Person) and prompts him to do more daredevil deeds and he ends up becoming the ultimate underworld don with a private militia of his own. When one of his associates, Neera (Zeenat Aman), marries a CBI Officer Kumar Sahni (Shashi Kapoor) things take a different turn. Police try to nab Vicky and believe him to be dead when his bullet-proof helicopter crashes.
Years later, Neera visits her in-laws in a small town, and is introduced to a kind and saintly person with special powers for healing and is shocked to find that Shradhanand is none other than Vicky. Now Vicky will have to decide whether to run again, or kill this only witness and continue living without any trouble.
