Geeta Mera Naam tells the story of four children who are separated at a fair and unknowingly reunite years later when Geeta (Sadhana) meets Nita (also Sadhana) in prison. Nita has been wrongly accused of murder. Geeta is then caught up in a scheme to find the true killer which leads her to her brother Johny's (Sunil Dutt) gang.

During the early 70s Sunil Dutts career as an actor was at a stand-still. It was "Geeta Mera Naam" that brought him back into the limelight again. The anti-hero was reborn after a long gap of films like "Mother India", and "Ganga Jamuna". Sunil Dutts performance of Johnny was liked by the masses as he clearly stole the limelight. I'd have to say that it was one of his career best performances.
