==Plot==
''Garv: Pride & Honour'' is a story of three brave and honest cops: Samar Singh ([[Amrish Puri]]), Arjun Ranawat ([[Salman Khan]]), and Hyder Ali Khan ([[Arbaaz Khan]]). The plot starts with court blaming Arjun for 18 killings at CM's Farmhouse. During 1984 riots, Arjun's parents were killed and then Shakuntla Devi ([[Farida Jalal]]) decided to adopt him. Samar wants to reduce the amount of crime in the state. The trio faces obstacles because the powerful and corrupt politicians including the Home Minister, Kashinath Trivedi ([[Govind Namdev]]), Badrinath Trivedi ([[Anant Jog]]) and Yashwant Deshpanday ([[Shivaji Satam]]) are connected with underworld don Zafar Supari ([[Mukesh Rishi]]).

The politicians decide to transfer Samar Singh while Arjun and Hyder kill Yeda (Zafar Supari's henchman) after they get into Arjun's house to warn Arjun's mother and sister by convincing Arjun to get not involved in Zafar Supari's criminal activities. Deshpande asks Kashinath Trivedi (Now Chief Minister of Maharashtra) to collect the file from Arjun he has made to prove that all of the corrupt politicians are involved with Zafar Supari.

The next day, Arjun comes with the file and Kashi burns it, surprisingly Arjun tells him that one copy has been sent to Central Home Ministry, second copy to President's office and third copy has already been sent to the Prime Minister's Office. A furious Zafar Supari lands in Mumbai, with trapping Hyder and his colleagues in Old Jassai Railway Yard. He brings RDX with Hyder successfully destroying it, but is killed by Zafar. While burrying Hyder outside a mosque, Arjun receives a phone call from Zafar, unaware what he talked about. The present day starts at the court when Lawyer Tyagi ([[Anupam Kher]]) blames that Arjun's sister Rakhi (Akanksha Malhotra) was not at home on 1st of November and was making merry with all corrupt politicians and their men at CM's Farmhouse. He further says that she even had illegitimate relations with her wounded brother Arjun.

Samar then decides to introduce Rakhi tomorrow in Court, but gets to know that becomes enraged, Arjun's killings have had a deep, mental affect on Rakhi and that she is currently being treated at Saint Mary's sanitarium. He goes there and Rakhi tells him the truth of what happened on 1st of November. In the court. at first Samar is reluctant to tell the truth, but surprisingly Rakhi herself comes and tells the truth. She tells that on the night of 1st of November, she was kidnapped by them and gang-raped by them. The court later finds politicians wrong and release Arjun and he joins back his duty as an honest police officer.

==Plot==
''Garv: Pride & Honour'' is a story of three brave and honest cops: Samar Singh ([[Amrish Puri]]), Arjun Ranawat ([[Salman Khan]]), and Hyder Ali Khan ([[Arbaaz Khan]]). The plot starts with court blaming Arjun for 18 killings at CM's Farmhouse. During 1984 riots, Arjun's parents were killed and then Shakuntla Devi ([[Farida Jalal]]) decided to adopt him. Samar wants to reduce the amount of crime in the state. The trio faces obstacles because the powerful and corrupt politicians including the Home Minister, Kashinath Trivedi ([[Govind Namdev]]), Badrinath Trivedi ([[Anant Jog]]) and Yashwant Deshpanday ([[Shivaji Satam]]) are connected with underworld don Zafar Supari ([[Mukesh Rishi]]).

The politicians decide to transfer Samar Singh while Arjun and Hyder kill Yeda (Zafar Supari's henchman) after they get into Arjun's house to warn Arjun's mother and sister by convincing Arjun to get not involved in Zafar Supari's criminal activities. Deshpande asks Kashinath Trivedi (Now Chief Minister of Maharashtra) to collect the file from Arjun he has made to prove that all of the corrupt politicians are involved with Zafar Supari.

The next day, Arjun comes with the file and Kashi burns it, surprisingly Arjun tells him that one copy has been sent to Central Home Ministry, second copy to President's office and third copy has already been sent to the Prime Minister's Office. Furious, Zafar Supari lands in Mumbai, with trapping Hyder and his colleagues in Old Jassai Railway Yard. He brings RDX with Hyder successfully destroying it, but is killed by Zafar. While burrying Hyder outside a mosque, Arjun receives a phone call from Zafar, unaware what he talked about. The present day starts at the court when Lawyer Tyagi ([[Anupam Kher]]) blames that Arjun's sister Rakhi (Akanksha Malhotra) was not at home on 1st of November and was making merry with all corrupt politicians and their men at CM's Farmhouse. He further says that she even had illegitimate relations with her wounded brother Arjun.

Samar then decides to introduce Rakhi tomorrow in Court, but gets to know that Arjun's killings have had a deep, mental affect on Rakhi and that she is currently being treated at Saint Mary's sanitarium. He goes there and Rakhi tells him the truth of what happened on 1st of November. In the court. at first Samar is reluctant to tell the truth, but surprisingly Rakhi herself comes and tells the truth. She tells that on the night of 1st of November, she was kidnapped by them and gang-raped by them. The court later finds politicians wrong and release Arjun and he joins back his duty as an honest police officer.

For Madhuri Dixit, "It was like a classroom for me. I learned how to dance for the camera with this song." Iyer, ''Dancing Women: Choreographing Corporeal Histories of Hindi Cinema'' (Oxford Univ. Press, 2020), 184; {{ISBN|9780190938765}}</ref> It ran in theatres for more than 50  weeks, becoming a golden jubilee, and it was the highest blockbuster at the box office for the year 1988 in [[Bollywood]].

Inspector Singh tracks Munna an honest life, re-kindles his relationship and asks him where he disappeared after the bank incident. To which Munna/Mahesh replies:

He had shifted to Bombay with his sister Jyoti, where he met an impoverished and unfortunate but kind-hearted and gentlewoman, Mohini, who was forced to dance to make money for her father Shyamlal (Anupam Kher). He is a drunkard who does not want to marry off Mohini because she made money for him by dancing in nearby nightclubs. He behaved similarly with his wife (Suhas Joshi), and when she had refused to do as he wished, he threw acid on her. Mohini's Mother committed suicide thereafter.

In his youth, Shyamlal had taken a huge loan from Lotiya Pathan (a dreaded gangster) and the only way to repay it was to make Mohini dance. Shyamlal also has to deal with Chote Khan, the younger brother of Lotiya, who was involved in the Bank robbery and had killed Mahesh/Munna's parents, and also Chote Khan was arrested due to Mahesh/Munna.

After release/bailout, immediately Chote Khan had attempted to rape Jyoti, but Mahesh killed Chote Khan in self-defense. For this, Mahesh/Munna was arrested and sentenced to one year in jail, after which he changed his name to Munna wounds.

On learning the whole story from Mahesh/Munna, Inspector Singh allows him to complete his task and stipulates some conditions, including the time and politician date of return/surrender.

When Lotiya hears that Mahesh/Munna is back in town, he kidnaps Mohini. Shyamlal now approaches/begs Munna to get Mohini rescued ASAP and requires that she be returned to him only. Mahesh rescues Mohini, and they rejoice to see each other again after a long time, but Mahesh asks Mohini to return to her father; Mohini becomes sad again as heartbroken, she had expected to follow with her lover.

As he had promised Inspector Singh, Munna surrenders whereupon he is tried and tested in Court and then sent to prison for some time.

After a retrial, Munna is acquitted of his charges and plans to start afresh in another city - [[Goa]]. However, his sister Jyoti convinces Mahesh/ Munna not to forget his lover Mohini - so Mahesh/Munna sends his friends- Guldasta and Baban - to explain to Mohini where her lover is now.

The evil father, Shyamlal overhears Mohini's plans to escape all enraged, Shyamlal and he tries to stop Mohini from leaving. This enrages Guldasta and Shyamlal have a fight in which both die, but Mohini manages to escape safely, and Mohini meets Munna again.

Baban ([[Chunky Pandey]]) gets a tip of Lotiya's conspiracy and challenges Lotiya. Lotiya gets enraged, and a fight between him and Baban ends in Lotiya getting defeated.

He had shifted to Bombay with his sister Jyoti, where he met an impoverished and unfortunate but kind-hearted and gentlewoman, Mohini, who was forced to dance to make money for her father Shyamlal (Anupam Kher). He is a drunkard who does not want to marry off Mohini because she made money for him by dancing in nearby nightclubs. He behaved similarly with his wife (Suhas Joshi), and when she had refused to do as he wished, he threw acid on her. Mohini's Mother committed suicide thereafter.

In his youth, Shyamlal had taken a huge loan from Lotiya Pathan (a dreaded gangster) and the only way to repay it was to make Mohini dance.
