Nita has been wrongly accused of murder. Geeta is then caught up in a scheme to find the true killer which leads her to her brother Johnny's (Sunil Dutt) gang.
During the early 1970s Sunil Dutt's career as an actor was at a stand-still. It was Geeta Mera Naam that brought him back into the limelight again. The anti-hero was reborn after a long gap of films like Mother India and Ganga Jamuna. Sunil Dutt's performance of Johnny was liked by the masses as he clearly stole the limelight. It was one of the best performances of his career.
