			== Plot ==
			"Sheru" (played by [[Shatrughan Sinha]]) and "Vicky" (played by [[Sunil Dutt]]) are both leaders of rival gangs. After successive instances of run ins and skirmishes, the pair realize that they are better off forming a truce and instead helping the local poor.

			At the same time, the two fall in love with two separate women (one of which is "Lachho" (played by [[Reena Roy]]).<ref>{{Citation \|title=Muqabla (1979) - Plot - IMDb \|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079589/plotsummary/ \|access-date=2024-01-10 \|language=en-US}}</ref>

			Despite the pair's best efforts to turn their life in a direction of positivity, they find themselves faced with spite from an old fellow gang member, Banwarilal (played by [[Ranjeet]]). In the nick of time, the two gangleaders-turned-heroes get support from a local police inspector (played by [[Prem Nath\|Premnath]]), who helps resolve the situation and avoid escalation of the conflict.<ref>{{Citation \|title=Muqabla (1979) - Plot - IMDb \|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079589/plotsummary/ \|access-date=2024-01-10 \|language=en-US}}</ref>

			Ultimately, the two heroes fall back into a cycle of conflict and violence, this time due to spurned romance. Sheru finds out that his beloved Lachho has fallen in love with his old nemesis, Vicky, and the two then resume their age old rivalry and hatred.<ref>{{Citation \|title=Muqabla (1979) - Plot - IMDb \|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079589/plotsummary/ \|access-date=2024-01-10 \|language=en-US}}</ref>
