[edit] Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Yakeen is the story of an honest police officer named Rajesh (Dharmendra) who is an expert in explosives and chemicals. His love interest is Gauri (Sharmila Tagore). Rajesh has some talented people (David and Anwar Hussain) in his department. Rajesh lives with his dog and cook (Asit Sen). The department gets word that there are people who want to find some secrets and hence the entire department wants to foil any such plans. However, the enemies are very cunning and they kidnap Rajesh and take him to a foreign land. There they keep him in prison and send his look-alike Jackoss (Dharmendra) in his place to India.

Jackoss is a foreigner with blue eyes and a voice different than Rajesh's. He uses contact lenses to change his eye colour, but cannot do much about his voice, so he plans to deceive the higher authorities by telling them that he is Rajesh and he has lost his voice in the entire kidnapping scenario. Gauri believes him and accepts him as Rajesh although she is not very comfortable with him. Still, the authorities keep an eye on Jackoss as they cannot allow him to enter the high-security zone. Jackoss, with the help of some traitors, manages to prove that he is Rajesh. His dog and cook recognise him and he eliminates them. Meanwhile Rajesh escapes from the foreign land and manages to reach India. Jackoss plans to blow up the laboratory where many secret tests were being conducted but Rajesh reaches on time and foils his plan. After killing Jackoss, Rajesh marries Gauri.
