Khal Nayak 1993

Sanjay Dutt portrays Balaram “Ballu” Prasad, a wanted criminal, who is apprehended by Jackie Shroff as Inspector Ram, the officer investigating Roshan Da, Ballu’s mentor. During interrogation, Ballu refuses to divulge anything about Roshan Da. While in custody, he escapes with help from his associates, fueling public outcry and resulting in Ram’s suspension.

To restore Ram’s reputation, his fiancée and fellow officer, Madhuri Dixit as Ganga, goes undercover as a street performer, locating Ballu and gradually earning his trust. Through their interactions, she learns about Ballu’s past and the circumstances that pushed him toward crime.

Ballu develops romantic feelings for Ganga, unaware of her true identity. When he discovers she is a police officer, he feels betrayed and becomes hostile. Nevertheless, Ganga continues the mission and refuses to withdraw.

Meanwhile, Ram visits Ballu’s mother, Rakhee Gulzar as Aarti Prasad, who reveals that Ballu and Ram were childhood friends. She explains how Roshan Da exploited their family’s difficulties and manipulated Ballu into believing the police were responsible for his sister Sunita’s death, a lie that fed his descent into crime.

As the manhunt for Ballu tightens, Ganga helps him slip away during a police chase. She is arrested and charged with aiding a fugitive, hurting her professional standing and public image. Ballu, now in hiding, reunites with his mother but is attacked by Roshan Da, who views him as a threat.

Inspector Ram leads a major operation against Roshan Da. In the confrontation, Ballu learns the truth about his sister’s death and Roshan Da’s involvement. Ram kills Roshan Da during the clash, and Ballu manages to escape.

Learning that Ganga is on trial for aiding him, Ballu voluntarily returns, admits his crimes, and testifies that Ganga acted under official orders. His testimony leads to Ganga’s acquittal. Ballu is sentenced to life in prison.
