Kaabil (2017)
6/10
One Of The Best Performance by The Lead Actor
25 January 2017
Kaabil Directed By Sanjay Gupta is an Action Thriller. Script is Well Written With Minor Flaws. Screenplay is Brilliant in The First Half, Second Half is Predictable & Stretched A Bit. Cinematography is Praiseworthy. Action & Dialogues Are Just Fine. Direction is Far Better Compared To Earlier Sanjay Gupta Movies.

Rohan Bhatnagar(Hrithik Roshan) A Dubbing Artist is A Blind Man. He Meets Supriya(Yami Gautam) A Blind Girl. They Fall in Love & Finally Get Married. Amit Shellar(Rohit Roy) Along With Wasim(Sahidur Rehman) Physically Assault Supriya. Rohan Takes Help From The Cops, But Nothing Works. Supriya is Again Raped, She Commits Suicide. Rohan Plans & Executes Something Which is Unbelievable.

Acting Wise, Hrithik Gives One Of His Best Performance, He Does Really Well in Emotional Scenes. Yami Gautam Does Well in Romantic Scenes, Chemistry is Incredible Between The Two. Ronit Roy is Just Fine, Lacks The Depth in The Character. Rohit Roy is A Poor Actor. Narendra Jha & Girish Kulkarni Both Did Well.

Music By Rajesh Roshan is Melodious. Title Track By Jubin Nautiyal & Palak Muchhal And "Kuch Din" By Jubin Nautiyal Are The Better Compositions From The Movie.

Overall A Must Watch For Thriller Genre & Hrithik Fans. Few Scenes Are Memorable, Which Are Beautifully Shot.

Awful...
24 January 2017
Galiyon Ka Baadshah Directed By Sher Jung Singh is An Action Crime Thriller. Script is Inadequate & Poor. Screenplay is Awful With Worst Editing Ever. Action is Just Fine. Dialogues Are Pathetic & Cliché. Direction is Very Weak.

Raja(Rajkumar), Sikander(Mithun Chakraborty), Billo(Hema Malini) & Tulsi(Smita Patil) Are Friends, Grown Up in The Slums Of Mumbai. Raja is Hard Working Worker in A Factory. Sikander Has A Dream To Make A Film, But He is Selling Toothpaste On Street For Living. Billo Loves Raja & Dreams To Have A Better House. Tulsi is A Prostitute Having Feelings For Raja.

On The Other Hand We Have Ram(Rajkumar) A Millionaire, Raja And Ram Are Prime Suspect When A Con Known As "Roti Chor" Resembles Him. Roti Chor Loots Money From Wealthy People & Distributes Them To The Needy People. Inspector Madhu(Poonam Dhillon) Along With Inspector Vijay(Danny Danzongpa) Are Trying To Solve This Mystery.

Acting Wise, Raj Kumar is Known For His Dialogues, But The Dialogues Are Poorly Written, In Other Words He Looks Weak. Mithun is Just Wasted By Inserting Him Here And There. Same Goes With Hema Malini & Smita Patil, Both Are As Usual Nothing To Talk About. Poonam Dhillon & Danny Danzongpa Are Just Fine.

Music By Kalyanji Anandji is Forgettable. No Good Songs Nothing. Overall, Nothing Works Not Even The Huge Star Cast.

Complicated Plot + Dance Dance + Mera Saaya + Gumnaan = Hisaab Khoon Ka
24 January 2017
Hisaab Khoon Ka Directed Surendra Mohan is An Action Suspense Thriller. Script is Very Complicated, Trying Everything in One Movie. We Have Romance, Horror, Suspense, Dance , Action & Too Many Characters. Screenplay is Below The Mark. Action & Dialogues Are Fine. Horror / Suspense is Taken From Other Movies. Direction is Very Average.

Prince Suraj(Mithun Chakraborty) is Not Happy of Being Wealthy So He Stays Away From Home & Becomes A Music Performer. He Meets Anupriya(Poonam Dhillon) And They Fall in Love. He is About To Marry Anu But Her Brother Gets Kidnapped, In Order To Bring Her Brother Back She Gets Killed By Four Unknown People. She Comes Back For Revenge.

Acting Wise, Mithun is As Usual Nothing To Shout About. Poonam Dhillon is Good, But Only in Parts. Mandakini Has Only Few Scenes. Raj Babbar Again Has Only Few Scenes, Which He Did Well. Satish Shah, Amrish Puri, Tiku Talsania, Gulshan Grover, Saeed Jaffery, Bindu & Sushma Seth Are Good in Their Limited Screen Space.

Music By Nadeem Shravan is Very Average . "Door Nahi Jaa Sakti Tujhse" By Lata Mangeshkar is Played Throughout The Movie, Sounds Good.

Overall A Complete Let Down. Strictly For Mithun Fans.

Dushman (1990)
4/10
Very Ordinary
21 January 2017
Dushman Directed By Shakti Samanta is A Family / Action Drama. Script is Simple With Very Less To Offer. Screenplay Has Nothing New As It Follows The Lost & Found Theme. Direction is Not Great Either, Dialogues & Action is Fine.

Movie Starts With Rakesh Alias Bullet(Mithun Chakraborty) Who is A Petty Thief, Wanna Start A Fresh Life After Being in Prison For A While. But Again He Somehow Joins Criminal Kalicharan(Sadashiv Amrapurkar) Gang And Works For Him. He Has An Affair With Laxmi (Mandakini). One Day, He Meets His Lost Mother(Tanuja) & Sister Geeta(Deepa Sahi), And Now They Live Together.

Roopchand(Alok Nath) Along With Jeet Singh(Ranjeet) Are Competitor Of Kaalicharan . Geeta Becomes Police Officer & Comes To Know About Bullet & Co. After A Few Interesting & Melodramatic Sequences It Finally Ends.

Acting Wise, Mithun is Good With Action & Dialogues. Mandakini Does Well As Laxmi. Alok Nath, Sadashiv Amrapurkar & Ranjeet Are Fine in Negative Characters. Deepa Sahi is Pathetic.

Music By R.D. Burman is Average. "Hoton Pe Tumne Pyar Likha Hai" By Amit Kumar & Sadhana Sargam is The Best Compostion.

Very Average
20 January 2017
Pyar Ke Naam Qurbaan Directed By B. Subhash is A Romantic Action Movie. It Was Last Movie Of Mithun - Subhash Hit Combination, Unfortunately It Was A Flop. Script Has Nothing New To Offer. Screenplay is Better in The First Half Compared To Second Half Which is Predictable. Dialogues & Action is Fine.

Rich, Arrogant & Rude Devika Singh(Dimple Kapadia) is Saved by Billo(Mithun Chakraborty), A Motor Mechanic From The Local Goons. Devika is Sister Of Yashwant Singh(Danny Danzongpa) Who Has Been The Cause Of Trouble For People In The Village. Billo Works For Gauri(Mandakini) Along With Gulfam(Paintal) in Her Automobile Repair Shop. Devika Hates Billo But Somehow When He Saves Her From Daku Shankar(Gulshan Grover), They Fall In Love. Meanwhile Yashwant Singh Physically Assaults Gauri & She Commits Suicide. Revenge Begins Like Any Other Movie.

Acting Wise, Mithun Chakraborty is Better With His Dialogues. Mandakini Has Less Screen Space But She Does Really Well. Dimple Kapadia & Danny Danzongpa Are As Usual. Raza Murad & Paintal Are Just Fine. Gulshan Grover Has Only Two Scenes.

Music By Bappi Lahiri is Quite Average. "Title Track" By Vijay Benedict & Shobha Joshi And "Tarsa Hoon Main" By Sudesh Bhosle Are Better Compositions Of The Movie.

Overall Strictly For Mithun Fans.

Brave Attempt...
17 January 2017

Sandhya Marries Nandu, Later He Comes To Know About Sandhya & Hari Which Changes Life Of Nandu, Relatives & The Villagers At The End Of The Movie.

Aar Paar (1985)
6/10
Indo - Bangladesh Production
17 January 2017
An Indo-Bangladesh Joint Production Aar Paar Directed By Shakti Samanta is A Romantic / Action Drama. Plot is Very Simple & Predictable, Screenplay is Well Written, Which Tends To Be Engrossing. Direction is Good To Average. Dialogues & Action is Fine.

Ghania(Mithun Chakraborty) is A Fisherman in A Small Town Of Raipur. He Uses A Ferry That He Has Leased From Mahesh Manna(Utpal Dutt), To Fish, Sell Fish To Mahesh, And Use His Earnings To Buy The Ferry in Installments. When Ghania Finds Out That He Has Been Swindled, He Takes His Business Elsewhere To Another Businessman Mohd. Bassir(Golam Mustafa). Ghania is in Love With Kamli(Rozina), And Would Like To Marry Her. Mahesh Also Has His Eyes On Kamli. Meanwhile Ghania is Framed For Molestation & Rape Of Kamli By Mahesh. Ghania's Father Also Gets Killed By Mahesh.

Acting Wise, Mithun is As Usual Better With His Dialogues & Action. Rozina Bangladesi Actress Did Well As Kamli. Utpal Dutt, Always Seen in Comedy Does A Negative Character With Conviction And Also With A Hint Of Comedy. Nuton Again An Artist From Bangladesh As Pannabai Has Few Scenes But Effective.

Music By R.D. Burman is Average. "Jaiyo Na Jaiyo" By Kishore & Sabina Yasmin And "O Majhi Tere Naiya Se" By R.D Burman Himself Are Better Compositions.

Awesome Performance From The Lead Actor...
17 January 2017
Swarg Yahan Narak Yahan Directed By Vimal Kumar is A Family / Crime Drama. Script is Similar To Shakti Starring Dilip Kumar & Amitabh Bachchan With A Bit Of Alter Here And There. Screenplay is Just Fine To Be Precise. Dialogues & Action is Good. Editing is Weak. Music is Plus.

A.C.P Vijay Kumar(Old Mithun Chakraborty) Lives With His Wife Suman(Sumalatha).Several Years After Their Marriage, Suman Gives Birth To Baby Boy Suraj, And Both Shower Too Much Of Love And Affection, As A Result Suraj Grows Up To Be A Brat. Vijay Gets Upset And Enrolled Him In A Boarding School. Years Later Suraj( Young Mithun Chakraborty) Returns Home, At First Suraj Hates His Dad, But A Change Comes Over Him And He is Back On Track. Suraj Gets Married To His Sweetheart, Radha(Shilpa Shirodkar). After A While Vijay Acknowledge That Suraj is Working With Mafia Haveliwala(Gulshan Grover) And is Involved in Illegal Activities.

Acting Wise, Mithun As Suraj is Good in Parts. Mithun As Vijay Kumar is Brilliant & Praiseworthy. Comparing Mithun With Dilip Kumar is Insane But Mithun is On Par With Emotional Scenes. Sumalatha Does Well As Caring Mother And Helpless Wife. Shilpa Shirodkar is Left With Very Less Screen Time. Gulshan Grover As Usual.

Music is Good By Rajesh Roshan. "Phoolon Ka Dekho" By Amit Kumar is My Favorite Song. "Maine Tere Bahane" By Udit Narayan & Anuradha Paudwal is A Romantic Track. "Yeh Suraj Chand Sitare" Both Version Happy & Sad By Nitin Mukesh Are Fine Compositions.

Overall Must Watch For Mithun's Brilliant Performance.

Action Thriller At It's Best
16 January 2017
Guru Directed By Umesh Mehra is An Action Thriller Drama. It is Official Remake Of Tamil Hit "Kaakki Sattai" Starring Kamal Hassan. Script is Very Interesting, Screenplay is Better in The Second Half Though Movie is Bit Lengthy. Direction is Awesome. Dialogues & Action is Good.

He And Uma(Sri Devi) Are in Love. He Again Gets A Chance To Become Real Cop But Again He is Rejected By The Commissioner Himself. Angered By The Rejection, Guru Turns Into A Local Rowdy. He Comes in Attention Of A Notorious Smuggler Vicky (Shakti Kapoor) Who Works With Manu (Amrit Pal). Vicky Recruits Guru Into His Gang. He Comes Across Another Member Of The Group Rama(Sri Devi). She is Looking For Personal Revenge From Manu.

Acting Wise, Mithun Chakraborty Performs Really Well With His Hard Hitting Dialogues. Sri Devi is Fine in A Dual Role, Which is Similar To Her Later Released Chaalbaaz. Nutan, Shakti Kapoor, Amrit Pal & Sameer Khakhar Are Good in Supportive Role.

Music is Very Average By Bappi Lahiri. "Ghayal Ghayal" By Bappi Lahiri & Janaki And "I Am A Bad Girl" By Alisha Chinoy & Shailendra Singh Are Catchy Numbers.

Overall Must Watch For Mithun Fans. Action Thriller At It's Best.

OK Jaanu (2017)
3/10
A Fair Totally Avoidable...
14 January 2017
OK Jaanu Directed By Shaad Ali Saathiya Movie Fame is A Romantic Drama. It is Official Remake Of Tamil "O Kadhal Kanmani" By Mani Ratnam. Script is Neither Good Nor Bad. Screenplay is Repetitive & Predictable. Direction By Shaad Adds Nothing New To Screenplay Depicted in Tamil Version. Dialogues Are Just Fine.

Aditya(Aditya Roy Kapoor) is A Video Game Developer Who Accidentally Meets Taara(Shradhha Kapoor) At Railway Station. They Again Meet At His Friends Wedding. They Soon Begin To Call Each Other, Go Out Together, And Start To Fall in Love.They Agree That Marriage is Not For Them And Decide To Have A Live-in Relationship Instead, And Taara Moves into Adi's Place, Rented From Gopi Shrivastav(Naseerudin Shah).They Wish To Spend Their Time With Each Other Before They Go Their Separate Ways For Their Respective Careers. Meanwhile They Sort Out, Why They Need Each Other And What is Importance Of Being Together Which Tends To Change Their Mindset.

Acting Wise, Aditya Roy Kapoor Has A Long Way To Go To Prove Himself As An Actor. He is Just Fine in Few Scenes. Same With Shraddha Kapoor She is Scrictly Average. The Pair Looks Good But There is Lack Of Chemistry. Naseerudin Shah is Not Utilized Effectively But Leela Samson is Better in Her Complex Character As An Alzheimer Patient. Rest Of The Cast is Forgettable.

Music By A.R Rehman is Very Average. "Ok Jaanu" By A.R Rehman & Shrinidhi Venkatesh is A Better Composition Of The Lot.

Overall Movie Has Nothing New To Offer. It Has Same Plot Like Befikre, A Fair Totally Avoidable.

Haraamkhor (2015)
2/10
Monotonous...
14 January 2017
Haraamkhor Directed By Shlok Sharma is A Romantic Drama. Script Tends To Be Very Weak & Lackluster. Screenplay is Very Dull & Tedious. Direction is Strictly Average To Poor. Dialogues Are Fine. Editing is Not Good.

Plot is Like Shyaam (Nawazuddin Siddhique) A Married Professor Has An Illicit Affair With Student Sandhya(Shweta Tripathi).Kamal(Irfan Khan), An Adolescent Classmate Has A Crush On Sandhya. Kamal Along With Mintu (Mohd. Samad) Follow Shyam & Sandhya Just To Watch The Affair From A Distance. Climax is Pathetic & Absurd.

Acting Wise, Nawazuddin Siddique is Good But Only in Parts. Shweta Tripathi, Movie Revolves Around Her But She Looks Weak With Her Average Acting Skills. Child Actors Irfan Khan & Mohd. Samad Are Better in Few Scenes.

Music Composed By Jasleen Royal is Melodious. "Kidre Jaawan" By Jasleen Royal is A Fine Composition.

Overall Movie Has Nothing New To Offer. Avoidable Flick For Its Monotonous Story Line.

Baat Ban Jaye (I) (1986)
7/10
One Of The Best in Comedy Genre.
13 January 2017
Baat Ban Jaye Directed By Bharat Rangachary (Hrishikesh Mukherjee Assistant) is A Comedy Drama. Script & Screenplay Are Praiseworthy. Direction Has Touch Of Mukherjee & Basu Chatterjee Movies Which Delved Into Social & Moral Issues. Dialogues & Comedy is Brilliant. Editing is Fine. Cast is A Big Plus.

Nisha Singh(Zeenat Aman) is A Wealthy Businesswoman, Wants To Marry A Poor & Honest Man. Her Uncle Mr. Singh(Utpal Dutt) Visits Her And Stays With Her For A While. To Get Her Married, He Tries To Find A Suitable Match For Her. In The Process Comic Situations Are Created Which Has Hilarious Results.

Acting Wise, Utpal Dutt Gives One Of His Best Performance in A Comic Role. He is Just Outstanding. Sanjeev Kumar Was A Gifted Actor, He is Exceptional. Amol Palekar Excels in Comedy Scenes. Mithun Chakraborty As Usual, Natural Talent Has An Action Scene Too. Raj Babbar is Fine. Jeenat Aman is Just OK. Shakti Kapoor, Aruna Irani & Jalal Agha Are Good in Limited Screen Space.

Music By Kalyanji Anandji is Horrible. No Good Songs. Must Watch For It's Comedy & Star Cast.

Music By Ram Laxman is Average. There Are Too Many Songs Inserted in The First Half. "Gunche Lage Hain Kehne" is The Best Composition From The Movie.

Simple And Entertaining....
13 January 2017
Laparwah Directed By Ravikant Nagaich is A Romantic / Action Drama. After A Super Hit Surakshaa Ravikant Directed Laparwah. Suraksha Did Well But Still Was Very Average Kind Of Flick. Laparwah Has Better Direction By Him. Script is Not Great But Screenplay is Absorbing & Entertaining. Action is Good. Cinematography is Fine. Editing is Bit Rough. It Has Combination Of Indian & Western Spaghetti Theme To An Extend.

Reckless Shera(Mithun Chakraborty) Lives With His Father (Chandrashekhar), Mother(Poornima), Brothers Bheema(Tilak Raj) & Veeru(Tej Sapru).

Johnny & Vakil Make Suraj(Wealthy Nephew Of Kihori Lal From Burma) Out Of Shera & Present Him To Sandhya. As A Part Of Conspiracy To Love Sandhya And Later Marry Her To Inherit Her Property, But Suraj Really Falls in Love With Her.

Acting Wise, Mithun Looks Fresh & Natural. Chemistry is Good Between Ranjeeta & Mithun. Satyendra Kapoo & Jeevan Both Are Equally Good. Shakti Kapoor & Prema Narayan Have Less Screen Time But Are Effective. Others Have Very Limited Screen Space.

Music By Bappi Lahiri is Average. "Koi Bhi, Dil Mein Na Aaya Tha" By Kishore Kumar & Chandrani Mukherjee And "Tumko Maine Sapne Mein"By Jatin Pandit Are Catchy Numbers. Background Music is Flourished By Cowboy Theme From The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

Acting Wise, Mithun Does Well With His Natural Acting, Prem Chopra is As Usual. Kader Khan & Asrani Are Brilliant in Comedy Scenes. Amrita Singh, Shakti Kapoor & Shreeram Lagoo Are Just Fine. Nirupa Roy, Rameshwari & Kiran Kumar Are Good.

Music By Laxmikant Pyarelal is Very Average. "Chaand Gagan Se" By Mohd. Aziz Is Best Of The Lot.

Agnee (1988)
4/10
Nothing New....
11 January 2017
Agnee Directed By J. Om Prakash is A Romantic Family Drama With Backdrop Of Lost & Found Theme. Script & Screenplay Has Nothing New To Offer. Direction is Strictly Average. Dialogues & Editing is Just Fine. Action is Very Limited. Cinematography is Pleasant.

Shekawat(Anupam Kher) is Displeased With His Father As He Bequest The Whole Property In The Name Of His Sister Sonali(Anjana Mumtaz) And Her Husband, Pramod(Alok Nath). Shortly After Pramod is Accused Of Having Illicit Relationship With The Maid Servant And is Held Responsible For Killing Her Husband; Pramod Decides To Run-Away But Comes To Know how Shekawat Had Framed Him For The Property. Pramod Find"s Out That Sonali Has Given Birth To A Baby. He Then Abducts The Baby boy And Attempts To Escape, He Handover His Child To Sudha(Tanuja). Shekawat Gets Marry To A Wealthy Woman, Shobha(Mausami Chatterjee) Who Gives Birth To a Baby Boy Babla.

Years Later Pramod's Son Amit(Mithun Chakraborty) Grows Up With The Couple Sudha & Vijay(Shafi Inamdaar) To Be Doctor, Babla(Chunkey Pandey) is in Love With Amit's Foster Sister, Ayushi(Mandakini). Pramod is Still Alive And In Search Of His Family.

Acting Wise, Mithun is As Usual Better in Emotional Scenes. Anupam Kher Excels In His Negative Character. Alok Nath & Anjana Mumtaz Does Well When It Comes To Helpless & Showing Sorrow Kind Of Stuff. Chunkey Pandey & Mandakini Both Look Weak. Amrita Singh Does Nothing New. Tanuja & Shafi Inamdaar Both Are Good.

Music By Laxmikant Pyarelal is Forgettable. "Mil Gaye Dil" By Mohd. Aziz & Alka Yagnik is Best Song Of The Movie.

Gunehgar (1995)
7/10
Well Executed....
10 January 2017
Gunehgar Directed By Vikram Bhatt is A Romantic Action Drama With The Backdrop Of A Patriotic Theme. Sceenplay & Script is Well Written, Execution By Bhatt is Quite Good. Action & Dialogues Are Awesome. Editing & Cinematography Could Have Been Better. Music is Plus.

Habibulla(Kiran Kumar) And His Brother, Munna(Vishwajeet Pradhan), With Few Others Are Militant Who Have Taken upon Themselves To Free Kashmir From India's Clutches. They Run A Terrorist Organization. Their Only Major Obstacle is D.I.G. Ajay Thakur(Mithun Chakraborty).He Has A Journalist Sister, Pooja(Pooja Bhatt), Who Befriends Rohit(Atul Agnihotri), And They Fall in Love. Unknown To Pooja, Rohit Has Links To Habibullah's Gang And has Instructions To Abduct Her. Now Habibullah Appoints Few Members From His Group Lead By Noora(Mahavir Shah) To Kill The C.M While Doing The Same They Barricade Themselves in A Mosque, Ajay Thakur With No Violence Waits Outside For Them.

Acting Wise Mithun Chakraborty & Kiran Kumar Did Well. Pooja Bhatt is Praiseworthy In Few Patriotic Scenes. Atul Agnihotri is Asual. Mahavir Shah, Vishwajeet Pradhan, Mushtaq Khan Are Good Support. Tisca Chopra(Priya Arora) Has Cameo.

Music is Awesome By Annu Malik. "Kehdo Kehdo Kehdo Na" By Kumar Sanu & Sadhana is My Favorite Romantic Track. "Dil Hua Beqaraar" & "Mere Ho Tum" By Kumar Sanu & Alka Are Slow Romantic Tracks."Rain is Falling" By Sudesh Bhosle is One Of The Popular Track.

Overall A Well Made Movie. Must Watch For Mithun Fans.

Naaraaz (1994)
4/10
Two Movies In One
10 January 2017
Naaraaz Directed By Mahesh Bhatt is An Action Drama. Plot is Similar To Ghulami(1985) in The First Half. Second Half is Like Any Other Action Flick Of 90's. In Simple Words Two Movies in One. Script & Screenplay Are Very Mediocre. Direction By Mahesh Bhatt is Very Weak. Editing is Poor. Action & Dialogues Are Fine. Music is Plus.

Deva (Mithun Chakraborty) is a Poor Villager Who Lives With His Father. All Deva Wants is That His Village Gets Clean Water. Deva Befriends Ajay (Atul Agnihotri) A Writer. Ajay Helps Deva. Ajay's Uncle Jagdambar(Bharat Kapoor) Owns The Fresh Water. After Few Mishaps Ajay Kills Jagdamber & Few Others. Cops Are After Him. He Manages To Escape And Lands in Malaysia Which Leads To Another Plot Altogether. He Starts Working For Taoke(Gulshan Grover) & Meets Sonia(Pooja Bhatt).

Acting Wise Mithun is Brilliant When it Comes To Emotional Scenes. Atul & Sonali Bendre Are Just Fine Nothing To Shout About. Bharat Kapoor Does Well in A Negative Character. Pooja Bhatt Has Less Screen Space With Usual Stuff. Gulshan Grover, Rana Jung Bahadur, Mushtaq Khan & Kunal Khemu(Young Ajay) Are Good.

Music is Just Awesome. "Sambhala Hai Maine" By Kumar Sanu is The Most Popular Romantic Track From The Movie. "Kitni Haseen Hai Raat" & "Tumhe Hum Kya Samajhte Hain" By Kumar Sanu Both Are Soft Romantic Track & My Favorites Too. "Tere Bin Main Kuch Bhi Nahi" Rare Duet By Kumar Sanu & Udit Narayan.

Tadipaar (1993)
4/10
Below Average
10 January 2017
Tadipaar Directed By Mahesh Bhatt is A Romantic Comedy Drama. Plot is Similar To Movies Likes Yeh Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahi(1991), Nau Do Gyarah(1957) & Chori Chori(1956) With Few Changes. Script & Screenplay Are Below The Mark With Nothing New To Offer. Dialogues & Comedy is Good. Direction is Quite Average. Best Part is Music.

Shankar(Mithun Chakraborty), Sentenced To Live Outside The Limits Of The City, Due To A Police Case in Other Words "Tadipaar". One Day He Happens To Rescue A Girl in Distress From Some Hoodlums And Finds Out That Her Name is Namkeen(Pooja Bhatt), Who Resembles A Multi-Millionaire Mohini Devi, Who Has Gone Missing. Shankar Asks Namkeen To Impersonate Mohini Devi To Embezzle Her Wealth. Namkeen Agrees To Do So, But Later Revealed That She is Mohini Devi Which Changes Life Of Shankar.

Acting Wise Mithun Does Well But Overplayed in Few Comedy Scenes. Pooja Bhatt Does Nothing New With Weak Acting Skills. Vikram Gokhale is Just Fine. Avtar Gill, Anupam Kher & Tiku Talsania Are Good in Limited Screen Space.

Music By Nadeem Shravan is Very Melodious. "Aaj Pehli Baar" By Kumar Sanu is Pleasant Romantic Track. "Bikhri Zulfon Ko" By Kumar Sanu is My Favorite Song. "Aapki Dushmani Kabool" By Kumar Sanu is Most Popular Song From The Movie. "Yeh Zindagi Kabhi Kabhi" By S.P. Balasubramaniam is Well Written Sad Song.
