Police Officer (1992)
Bollywood's top three bad guys - all in the same movie!
Such an excellent movie, another one that will form part of the "so bad its good" classics and deserves to be part of the annals of Bollywood history. All the exciting cinematic clichés that have ever been written are showcased in this movie with a shameless sense of excitement like we have never witnessed before.
Another important point that works for this movie is the casting - three of the best bad guys to ever grace Bollywood are a team in this one - Paresh Rawal, Sadashiv Amrapurkar and Gulshan Grover. The movie also stars Karisma Kapoor, which is not surprising, as she has acted in bigger cinematic debacles before.
Police Officer is not for the weak hearted or people who are looking for a real police thriller. Both will be sorely disappointed.
Bottom line, Aruna Irani (the mother, who else), has a dog that she considers a son and calls Ram, Asrani is a police officer and Raza Murad is the Police Commissioner, if that is not reason enough, what can be?
Farishtay (1991)
The Most Amazing :So Bad Its Good" Movie
OMFG!!! Was this the most amazing movie I had ever seen? HELL YES! Unbelievable action (literally), out of this world characters (literally), characters by the name of Rasbhari, Inspector Arjun Tange and my favourite bad-man off all time - Raja Jaichand (Sadashiv Amrapurkar), this is one of the best to come off Bollywood. It stays a classic after so many years.
The story is quite simple - Veeru and Dheeru's (Dharmendra and Vinod Khanna) "mu boli" sister (read good friend that does not have sex with them) is married off to Inspector Tange (Rajnikanth) after some blood curdling comic scenes. Inspector Tange is posted in a village who has a ruler by the name of Raja Jaichand. So Inspector Tange is killed (surpirse!!) as are many other children (Thank you, Raja Jaichand) and Veeru/Dheeru extract revenge.
I am tired of writing this.. I have to watch this movie once more, more than anything else, to watch Raja Jaichand's Swan Car (that's right folks - it exists...). Nuff said - go watch the movie now...
