Pratighaat (transl. The Revenge) is a 1987 Hindi feminist drama film directed by N. Chandra, starring Sujata Mehta as lead.[1] It was a remake of the Telugu film Pratighatana (1986), directed by T. Krishna, with Vijayshanti as the lead.[2] The film deals with politics-criminal nexus and a college lecturer who takes them on, even after she faces public disrobing.[3][4]

Made on a low-budget, and no big stars, it went on to become a hit, making Rs. 8 crore at the box office.[5] It became part of the hat-trick of hit films by N. Chandra, Ankush (1986), Pratighaat and Tezaab (1988).[2]
