HERA PHERI

Two con men, Vijay and Ajay, manage to hoodwink a number of wealthy people as well as Police Commissioner Khanna. Their lives undergo many changes, after a caper at a casino, where Vijay is recognized by a gangster named P.K., who decides to separate the two friends by claiming that Ajay is his long-lost son; insinuating that Vijay has not been completely forthright with Ajay; and implicating him in the murder of a male named Mac.
