Plot

Mehboob Khan directs this, his one and only action-adventure flick. After a dishonest guardian steals their inheritance out from under them, the daughter (Aruna Devi) gets thrown in jail for penury while the son becomes an impoverished bum wandering the land. When she gets out of prison, she dons a mask, calls herself the Deccan Queen, and vows to fight evil at every turn. The film's labyrinthine plot revolves around the meek clerk at an insurance agency named Vrinda (also played by Aruna Devi) -- who is the spitting image of this fledgling masked avenger. Worse, they fall for the same guy -- a police inspector named Suresh (Surendra). ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide
