There is no contender to Govinda when it comes to comedy. However he doesn't do too well in serious roles. His acting style comes across as overacting which doesn't sit well with the audience. If Govinda's career is scanned you'd see his serious movies haven't done too well. So is the case with this movie. Aditya Pancholi was decent second fiddle.

One Of Govinda's Finest Film.Explosive Performance.
scofield718 August 2016
Before Venturing Into A Line Comedy Films Directed By David Dhawan And Written By Rumi Jaffrey From Raja Babu From (1994) To Jodi No.1 (2001) Govinda Seriously Tried To Change His Image From Drama/Comics Actor To Highly Aggressive And Volatile For Justice Kind Of Persona With 2 Films

1.Muqabla (1993) And 2. Iqbal Durrani's Khuddar (1994) Although His Performance Was More Volatile In Khuddar (1994).

Muqabla Completely Belongs To Govinda As An Honest,Sincere And Angry At The System Lower Level Cop Who Wants To Unleash His Fury But Is Caught In His Uniform And Duty.After Khuddar (1994) I Seriously Consider 'Muqabla'(1993) AsThe Best Acting Work Of Govinda.

Watch Out For The Scene When Govinda Beats A Bunch Of Public Who Beats A Child For Stealing Bread And His Helplessness To Save A Woman Victim From Goons.Govinda Really Excelled In Those Scenes.

If You Think He Is Just A Comic Actor Then You Seriously Need To watch Muqabla (1993) And Khuddar (1994).

After Govinda Its Shakti Kapoor Who Shines Well In A Highly Evil Negative Role Which Is Vastly Contrast From His Comical Role In Raja Babu (1993) Released Same Year.

Overall Its A Very Good Film On Crime,Society And Police And Govinda Gives A Fabulous Performance.

7/10.

A good movie depicitng the lameness of police to control crime
grvsingh22 December 2006
Deepak and Suraj are brothers belonging to a village and whose father has imbibed the high values of honesty and principles in them.

They get jobs of Police hawaldar and traffic hawaldar and are happy in what they get. Khanna is in a transport business but is a devil in reality .All police inspectors bow in front of them. He has two twin brothers whom he uses to do his dastard acts and who always get acquitted because he has dellusioned the society that he only has one brother and he cannot be at two places at same time His same tactics create a wedge between deepak and suraj and suraj thinks that deepak has become corrupt.Atocricies of khanna keep on going and his brother is again acquitted in a cold-blooded murder.

Deepak becomes suscpiscous and is able to exposeS Khanna

Question remains will two brothers be able to together finish Khanna and his gang

Some of the best cinematographic scenes in the movie are when Khanna's brother slits the throat of Custom Officer's wife in front of public and inspite of repeated requests of Suuraj no one comes to testify and collaterally his cap is shown drowning in water (symbolic of defeat of law )

Superb Film
luigi7002 April 2018
This is a superb film with some of Govinda's best acting ever, the man is not only a comedian but an excellent dramatic actor as well. This is a very powerful movie which tells of the truth of what happens in real life within the police force. I won't ruin the movie for you, but if you think Govinda is only a comedian do yourself a favour and check out this film.

Govinda's best performance
gurdeepmann5911 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
First of all Govinda is awesome and has played his honest role well

I believe his performance shines throughout the whole movie

There are some memorable scenes like when Shakti Kapoor slits the custom officer's wife's throat and despite many requests nobody comes as a witness

Aditya Pancholi also impresses in the film's action moments though his death scene is full of blood and emotion Karishma Kapoor had a very mini role only providing comedy Paresh Rawal is hilarious translating the Tamil minister's speech Shakti Kapoor is quite convincing as a villain
