	Dharamchand is the Chair of Olympic Bank, which is due for a final audit by the 30th of the month. Shortly thereafter, his daughter, Hema ([[Hema Malini]]), finds his dead body in his bedroom. She phones her brother, Ratan ([[Amitabh Bachchan]]), who arrives, finds a suicide note in his father's room, clarifying that he had embezzled 20 lakhs from the bank, is unable to repay it, and hence is killing himself. Ratan decides to protect the good name of the family and does not tell anyone about the suicide note to anyone, including Hema. Shortly thereafter, Ratan is approached by a blackmailer named Shekhar, who threatens to expose Ratan's secret if Ratan does not participate in a bank robbery that will take place two days before the final audit. Ratan assists him, the robbery takes place, the money is looted, all bank records are burnt, and the robbers make a successful getaway. Ratan is relieved that this problem has been resolved and the family name is not tarnished. The only problem is that Hema saw the robbers in action, and is able to identify one of them, a woman named Shobha ([[Bindu (actress)\|Bindu]]). When she tells Ratan, he asks her to keep this information a secret. Then Ratan's friend, Sagar ([[Jeetendra]]), arrives from Delhi for a visit, and it is here that Ratan ~~find~~ out that Sagar is in a profession that has made him a suspect with the police, and may rip open the secret that Ratan has been trying to hide from the world. Soon it is revealed that, Sagar is a CBI officer & he has been sent to find out evidence for Olympic Bank robbery. After enquiry, Sagar ~~find~~ out that the main suspect is Madan ([[Prem Chopra]]), who is Ratan's best friend. Now, Ratan & Sagar meet Shobha & pressure her to tell everything about Madan. By the way, Madan shoots her before she ~~say~~ anything about him. Before dying, Shobha ~~confess~~ that, Dharamchand didn't commit suicide, but was murdered by Madan, who actually had embezzled 20 lakhs from bank through Dharamchand & didn't want to repay the loan.
