The Great Gambler

Action, Crime, Romance, Thriller · 1979

Jai (Amitabh Bachchan) is an expert gambler, and has been so as long as he can remember, and has never lost a game. These skills bring him to the attention of the underworld, who are interested in hiring him so that he can do as they ask him to do so. Jai agrees to do so, and plays successfully, though unknowingly entraps a patriotic Indian, to give up military secrets. When the Indian police comes to know about this, they assign the case to Inspector Vijay, who is asked to apprehend Jai at any cost. The only problem is that Inspector Vijay is Jai’s look-alike, and is not at all a good gambler.
