Phool Aur Kaante (English: Flowers and Thorns) is a Hindi action romance film released in 1991. It stars Ajay Devgn, Madhoo, Aruna Irani, Jagdeep and Amrish Puri among others. The film marked the debut of Ajay Devgan, son of stunt and action choreographer Veeru Devgan, and Madhoo, niece of actress Hema Malini. The film was a superhit and won Ajay Devgn, the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut for 1991.

Phool Aur Kaante was noted for its soundtrack and action sequences. The movie is loosely based on the Malayalam film Parampara (1990), starring Mammootty and Suresh Gopi.

Ajay Devgn's entry in the film became very popular where he appeared standing, balancing on two moving motorcycles. Similar stunts have been repeated in a number of films since.[2][3][4][5]

Synopsis

Nageshwar alias "Don" (Amrish Puri) heads a vast criminal empire. He has an only son, Ajay (Ajay Devgn), who is completely familiar with his dad and his business. So is Ajay's wife, Pooja (Madhoo), who would like to put an end to all these criminal activities. When Nageshwar starts showing signs of ageing, he decides that it is now time for Ajay to take over from him. Ajay does so, however, a number of Nageshwar's associates are unhappy, embittered, and critical of this choice, and as a result they, under the leadership of Shankar Dhanraj kidnap Ajay's baby son, Gopal. Will Nageshwar negotiate his grandson's release, or will his grandson be another sacrifice of his "empire"? How will Ajay and his wife react to this?
