      Audience Member Maybe more like a 2.25. I watched this movie because it always comes up when people talk about Amitabh Bachchan because he almost died filming it. Like Koyla (1997), the writing just wasn't there and the lead kind of carried the movie as best he could. It was just one ridiculous thing after another, but it was engaging, which saved it from being a really hot mess. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member OUTSTANDING!

I guarantee you will be over joyed! ;) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member very dramatic in typical Bollywood fashion.
