Mazloom (meaning: ill treated) is a 1986 Indian Hindi-language crime drama film directed by C.P. Dixit and produced by Ranjit Virk,[1] starring Suresh Oberoi, Anita Raj and Mandakini in lead roles.[2]
Purnima is raped by a stranger (Shakti Kapoor) in a train and is too ashamed to talk about the incident. She becomes pregnant and her parents find out. Her father (Pinchoo Kapoor) dies of shock upon hearing this. Since it is too late to abort the baby, she gives birth to a baby boy and her mother gives him away to a stranger.
A few days later, Purnima marries Vijay (Suresh Oberoi), but ironically the same child ends up in their care, and they name him Rajan (Arjun).
Years later, Purnima gives birth to another child, named Aman. The two boys grow up, and sibling's rivalry prevails to such an extent that they eventually fall in love with the same woman, Meena (Mandakini). Things become increasingly complicated and one member of their family is killed, and another, arrested.[3]
The songs in the soundtrack are written by S.H. Bihari and Santosh Anand.
