Gumrah (Hindi pronunciation: [ɡʊmraːɦ], transl. Mislead) is a 1993 Indian Hindi-language action crime drama film directed by Mahesh Bhatt, written by Sujit Sen and Robin Bhatt, and produced by Yash Johar under the Dharma Productions banner. It stars Sridevi, Sanjay Dutt, Rahul Roy, and Anupam Kher. The film follows Roshni, an aspiring singer who is arrested in Hong Kong on drug trafficking charges after being abandoned by her partner.
Loosely based on the Australian miniseries Bangkok Hilton, the film features music by Laxmikant–Pyarelal with lyrics by Anand Bakshi.
Released theatrically on 3 September 1993, Gumrah received mixed-to-positive reviews, with particular praise for Sridevi's performance. The film emerged as a commercial success, grossing approximately ₹10 crore (US$2.4 million at the time), and ranked as the ninth highest-grossing Hindi film of the year. Sridevi earned a nomination for Best Actress at the 39th Filmfare Awards.
