Zulm Ki Hukumat (transl. Tyrannical rule) is a 1992 Indian Hindi-language action crime film directed by Bharat Rangcharay and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. The film stars Dharmendra, Govinda, Moushumi Chatterjee, Kimi Katkar, Shakti Kapoor, Neena Gupta, Paresh Rawal and Archana Puran Singh. The film is a remake of the Hollywood film The Godfather(1972). The story revolves around a young man whose elder brother is an underworld don, and how he steps into the crime world after his brother is killed.
Zulm Ki Hukumat released worldwide on 17th July 1992, clashing with Esmayeel Shroff's Nishchaiy starring Vinod Khanna and Salman Khan. At the box office, the former emerged as a moderate success and the 10th highest grossing film of 1992, while the latter was a flop.
Plot[edit]
Pitamber Koli (Dharmendra) lives a powerful mafia boss existence with his wife and two brothers, Yeshwant and Pratap (Govinda). Pratap is not like the business of his brothers hence he choose another path and lived separately. The trio get in the bad books of another crime boss named Swami, whose offer of drug business is rejected by Pitamber Koli. As a result, Pitamber is killed, and Yeshwant is seriously injured due to firing on them. Pratap takes the place of his elder brother Pitamber and joins the hand with Swami only to avenge the death of his brother. As soon as Swami get to know the true intentions of Pratap, he makes his move - Pratap's sister and brother-in-law are abducted and held at gunpoint. When Yeshwant goes to rescue them, he is gunned down. Now Pratap, the only remaining Koli brother, is the only target of Swami. How Swami entraps Prat, who will be quite helpless, especially with his sister still a captive with Swami, forms the crux of the story.
