Jung (transl. Battle) is a 2000 Indian Hindi-language action film directed by Sanjay Gupta. The film features Aditya Pancholi as the antagonist along with Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon and Shilpa Shetty.[2]

The film has some similarities to the Hollywood film Desperate Measures.[3][4]

Plot

Police Inspector Veer Chauhan is an honest and diligent man, who lives in India with his wife, Naina, and a son, Sahil. While Veer likes to go by the book, his partner, Inspector Khan, is exactly the opposite, reckless, and trigger-happy. When Veer is told that his son requires a bone marrow transplant, Veer does his best, but is unable to come up with any donor, and is told that Sahil may not live long. Veer finds out that the only person who has the same bone marrow is Bali, a criminal, and the only problem is Bali is not likely to even consider donating any organ of his body, as Veer was the one who had arrested him. A short while later, Bali appears to have a change of heart, agrees to be a donor, and is transported to the hospital, but escapes. So after escaping the hospital, Bali kills evil Inspector Khan. Bali manages to wear a police uniform, and he escapes the hospital .

Controversy

Producer Satish Tandon & Sanjay Gupta had differences during the making of this film. Gupta was disappointed by Tandon, who added unwanted scenes without Gupta's permission. This resulted in Gupta withdrawing himself from credits & he wasn't credited in the film. But in the end credits, he was credited. Sanjay Dutt, one of the best friends of Sanjay Gupta, refused to dub the film, and his voice was dubbed by another person.[5][6]
