amitabh all the way

Theres nothing except Amitabh in the film. Waheeda Rehman plays the tearful mom, While rati agnihotri is the heroine who appears for the songs, Rishi kapoor is the politically correct - friend/brother - a symbol of religious unity, and Manmohan Desai delivers this potboiler with lots of melodrama. Amitabhs fatal injury was convenient for the film to register success

Great Movie

This is the legendary movie where Amitabh got seriously injured and hospitalised. It is a Good enough movie without the hype surrounding it. Amitabh again shows how he became such a legend with his switching from comedy and drama throughout the film. really enjoyable a must for all bollywood fans!

The movie that almost took our legend's life!

This was the movie during the shooting of which, Amitabh met with a fierce accident. A good movie, if you are an Amitabh fan :-)

such a huge treat. i will buy this wen i can its that good and iam skint most of the time. shows how good it is.

a good mix of suspence, music, thought provoking and true to life, showing wat its really like to be poor in india and world over. made me proud to be a working person.

love the film to bits its graet.

Absolutely enjoyable

I really enjoyed this movie. I was really gripped by the story line. Good plot I must say. You can hardly predict how everything will turn out.... a few shocking moments.

I think Amitabh is truly funny. A true comic hero he was in this movie. I think Rishi also gave a good performance. .

If you are looking for an action/comedy type movie, this is the one.
