When the parents discover the romance and forbid the couple from meeting, the two elope in a stolen car[9](https://www.moviebuff.com/daulat-ki-jung).\n\nOn the road they stop to help an injured man, who hides a treasure map in Asha's jacket before dying. The map draws the couple into the schemes of two rival gangs of crooks, pursued as well by goons and C.B.I. officers and followed by their irate fathers. Rajesh, who has a photographic memory, memorizes the map and swallows it to protect himself and Asha. The chase leads to a tribal village in a remote forest off Mumbai, where the couple is cornered[9](https://www.moviebuff.com/daulat-ki-jung) • [7](https://www.boxofficeindia.com/movie-story.php?movieid=5944). IMDb summarizes the premise as two young lovers who elope to marry and get caught between two gangs searching for buried treasure[1](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0172300/).\n\n## Cast and crew\n\nThe supporting cast includes [Paresh Rawal](https://www.edgepedia.org/paresh-rawal) as Haribhai, Kader Khan in the double role of K.K. Topji and Sher Khan, Kiran Kumar as Rana, Dalip Tahil as Mike, Viju Khote as Inspector Godbhole, Mehmood Jr. as Chotu, Daya Dongre as Shanti Chaudhry, and Ram Sethi, B.M. Vyas, Birbal, and Jamuna in smaller parts[10](https://www.boxofficeindia.com/cast_crew.php?movieid=5944) • [11](https://www.tvguide.com/movies/daulat-ki-jung/cast/2000039145/). The music was composed by the duo Anand Milind, credited as Anand Chitragupth and Milind Chitragupth[6](https://www.nowrunning.com/movie/649/bollywood.hindi/daulat-ki-jung/index.htm). Song titles from the film's soundtrack, including \"Hai Daiya Jhumke Ki,\" appear in music-rights listings for 1992[12](https://www.novex.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tips.pdf).\n\n## Reception and box office\n\nThe film was declared a flop. [The Economic Times](https://www.edgepedia.org/the-economic-times) included it in a slideshow of Aamir Khan films that were complete flops at the box office, noting that the Khan–Chawla pairing \"didn't set the box office on fire\"[8](https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/5-aamir-khan-films-that-were-complete-flops-at-the-box-office/daulat-ki-jung-1992/slideshow/63284355.cms?from=mdr). Bollywood Hungama's box-office page classifies the film's performance as a flop while showing no data for its India, overseas, or worldwide collections[3](https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movie/daulat-ki-jung/box-office/), and Box Office India likewise lists no first-day, first-week, or lifetime figures[7](https://www.boxofficeindia.com/movie-story.php?movieid=5944).\n\nAudience ratings have been modest. IMDb records a rating of 5.1/10 from about 1,000 users, with an unweighted mean of 6.1 and the most ratings coming from India, the United States, Pakistan, the United Kingdom, and Bangladesh[13](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0172300/ratings/). Rotten Tomatoes shows no critic reviews on its Tomatometer and fewer than 50 audience ratings[2](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/daulat_ki_jung).\n\n## Background and availability\n\nMoviebuff notes that the film is loosely based on the Hollywood classic western *[Mackenna's Gold](https://www.edgepedia.org/mackennas-gold)* (1969), sharing its treasure-map premise[9](https://www.moviebuff.com/daulat-ki-jung). The Economic Times account describes it as inspired by that film and as a love story in which the young couple fights the world to stay together[8](https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/5-aamir-khan-films-that-were-complete-flops-at-the-box-office/daulat-ki-jung-1992/slideshow/63284355.cms?from=mdr).\n\nRelease dates differ across databases: Bollywood Hungama, Box Office India, and blu-ray.com give 3 January 1992[4](https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movie/daulat-ki-jung/) • [7](https://www.boxofficeindia.com/movie-story.php?movieid=5944) • [14](https://www.blu-ray.com/Daulat-Ki-Jung/1245944/), Gadgets 360 gives 17 January 1992[5](https://www.gadgets360.com/entertainment/daulat-ki-jung-movie-120512), and Digit Binge gives 17 June 1992[15](https://www.digit.in/digit-binge/movies/daulat-ki-jung-9813.html). The film is available to rent or buy on Prime Video[2](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/daulat_ki_jung).\n\n## References\n\n1.
