== Plot ==
The film also stars [[Sunil Dutt]], [[Feroz Khan]] and [[Rajendranath]]. The film's music is by [[Laxmikant Pyarelal]].
The film tells the story of four children who are separated at a fair and unknowingly reunite years later when Geeta ([[Sadhana Shivdasani|Sadhana]]) meets Neeta (also [[Sadhana Shivdasani|Sadhana]]) in prison. Neeta 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 Johny's ([[Sunil Dutt]]) gang.
 
During the early 1970s, [[Sunil Dutt]]'s career as an actor was at a stand-still. ''Geetaa Mera Naam'' brought him into the limelight again. The anti-hero was reborn after a long gap of films like ''[[Mother India]]'' and ''[[Mujhe Jeene Do]]''. [[Sunil Dutt]]'s performance of ''Johny'' was liked by the masses as he clearly stole the limelight. It was one of the best performances of his career.
This is [[Sadhana (actress)| Sadhana]]'s last film.
