Tezaab (1988) starred Anil Kapoor as Mahesh who joins the nation’s armed forces so that he can serve the country. During his college days he has a run-in with a fellow-collegian played by Madhuri Dixit.
A bet between his friends and himself ends with Kapoor falling in love with Dixit. Madhuri’s dad is an alcoholic and wishes that Mohini takes up dancing and prostitution so that he can get his daily dose of alcohol.
Mahesh becomes a gangster named Munna, who has many old scores to settle. Tezaab included the song ‘Ek Do Teen’ which made Madhuri an overnight success and topped music charts for weeks.
