Bhrashtachar (Hindi: भ्रष्टाचार, English: Corruption) is a 1989 Hindi-language Indian feature film directed by Ramesh Sippy and produced by G.P.Sippy, starring Mithun Chakraborty, Rekha, Anupam kher, Raza Murad, Abhinav Chaturvedi with Rajnikanth in a special appearance and introduced Shilpa Shirodkar.

Cunning politician Purshottam (Anupam kher) is about to contest an election, but Ashutosh Das (Mithun Chakraborty), an alcoholic police officer, Bhavani Dutt (Rekha), an activist and Abdul Sattar (Rajnikanth), a politician are against this move of Purshottam as they know about his criminal activities and the three join hands to bring Purshottam to justice to save the innocent people.

But Purshottam is good enough to plot the trio's fall as Bhavani is arrested for the murder of a prostitute and Abdul Sattar is accused of rape and murder of a blind girl Gopi (Shilpa Shirodkar), while Ashutosh gets fired from the police job itself. The climax shows how the trio gets the punishment for Purshottam.

The lyrics written by Anand Bakshi to the music composed by Laxmikant–Pyarelal.
