'Sawaal' (; translation: Question) is a Hindi drama film produced by Yash Chopra and directed by Ramesh Talwar, released in 1982. The music was composed by Khayyam and the lyrics were written by Majrooh Sultanpuri. Despite an all-star cast, it did not succeed at the box office.

Plot



Seth Dhanpat Rai Mehta (Sanjeev Kumar) is the country's most powerful smuggler who is surrounded by his fortress of power and money. His daughter Sonia (Poonam Dhillon) falls in love with Ravi Malhotra (Shashi Kapoor), a police officer and wants to marry him. Dhanpat Rai very soon realizes that his son Vikram (Randhir Kapoor) has also taken a path that goes against the one he travels. Vikram has been engaged to a pretty but poor girl Reshmi (Swaroop Sampat). Now the question begins to haunt Seth Dhanpat Rai - "What is more important: His children's happiness or what he is, i.e. power and money?" Dhanpat Rai's question is answered soon.
