Audience Member A Classic and equally spine chilling story, beautiful songs, awesome cinematography, fantastic acting and to top it all this being a Gulzar film, Maachis is certainly one of the best political thrillers of its time.Maachis, unfortunately is now a forgotten story which equally deserved its own share of accolades. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review flixster f A classic by Gulzar. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Based on 1984 Sikh riots , Directed by gulzar movie highly engrossed with suspense and thrill but lacks in depth of plot and climax.Well Played by Chandchur and Om Puri and direction & music well ahead of that time, gulzar has delivered you a good package that is still fresh to see now.
