Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

gurdeepmann59 The film seems to be a remake of TRISHUL (1988) and was later copied into an even worser PARAMPARA (1991)The film seems to have the same business tenders, a family member so selfish and cruel, the mother of the lead hero dying and the lead hero avenging his mother's deathMost of the film is like TRISHUL so no point wasting time talking. I found so many flaws but still I enjoyed the filmAnil Kapoor is the best with his hard hitting dialogs Rajesh Khanna was OK Anuphem Kher was good Rishi Kapoor was OK Hema Malini played Kher's daughter which was a surprise as she is older than him Sonam tried to impress in her red bikini Meenakshi Shedarshi is elite class Saaed Jaffrey shows potential as a lowly employee with dreams of a hotel

Chrysanthepop 'Vijay' pretty much echoes Yash Chopra's own 'Trishul', with a higher budget but poorer execution (mostly because of the typical 80s campy style). A selfish idiotic Lakhaire (the lakh version of a millionaire) Lala Yodhraj Bhalla (Anupam Kher) lives in a typical Yashraj studio's lavish mansion and owns a business where both his chatterbox son Shashiraj (Raj Babbar) and fat daughter Suman (Hema Malini) work under his employment. Against her father's wish, Suman marries a poor clerk, Ajit (Rajesh Khanna), and temporarily moves out of the expensive Yashraj studio in order to live with her husband. Things don't get any better when Lala's son, Shashiraj, proposes to poor Christian hottie named Rita (a stunningly beautiful Moushumi Chatterjee). Lala sends him off on a business trip and tries to buy Rita into walking out of their lives. Unfortunately, Shashiraj proves to be a terrible pilot when he fatally crashes his plane (that his ancestors must have borrowed from the Wright brothers) and dies. Using his daughter's sympathy, Lala manipulates Suman by guilt-tripping her into leaving her husband and moving back with the grandchild. Oh, I forgot, Suman and Ajit had a baby amidst all this. A quarter of a century pass by and Suman's son Vicky is about to become a shareholder of the family business while Vicky is busy screwing an airhead (Sonam). Meanwhile, Gujral (Lala's ex-employee, now rival, played by Saeed Jaffrey), is planning to build a hotel with the help of his son Arjun (Anil Kapoor) but Lala has his eyes on that property. Vicky befriends Arjun who has fallen in love with a hot babe (Meenakshi Sheshadri) but this one has some brain and class unlike Vicky's air-headed girlfriend. Things get more complicated (yes, it really does) as Lala gets desperate for Gujral's property.Confused? Ah, don't worry, it ain't as confusing as it looks but the story is badly developed, obviously. While some sequences were terribly rushed, others dragged on and a few could have better been left out. Considering that this is an 80's masala film one can expect below-average execution. Now this is a pre-2000 Yash Chopra film so one can expect songs visualized in Switzerland (even if the entire movie is set in Switzerland). Not surprisingly, several songs appear randomly. Now the songs themselves are forgettable (a few are unbearable) but Meenakshi Sheshadri 's dance and beauty makes one or two watchable. Of course there are many unintentionally funny sequences like an overweight Hema Malini dressed as a teenager or Sonam prancing on the beach in a cheap two-piece bikini and a bad 80s hairstyle. This was meant to be sensual but it had me laughing out loud. More so when the fat Rishi Kapoor was lying on top of her. One will find more such jokes.Anupam Kher caricatures Sanjeev Kumar's role from 'Trishul'. He is laughably bad. Hema Malini's performance is flat while Rajesh Khanna is wooden. Raj Babbar is over the top but Moushumi Chatterjee shines in a brief role. Rishi Kapoor is unconvincing. Sonam is terrible and her wardrobe is among the worst ever in cinema. Meenakshi Sheshadri is vivacious. The best performances were by Saeed Jaffrey and Anil Kapoor. Even though Kapoor tends to go a bit over the top Saeed Jaffrey steals the show with a balanced portrayal of a once loyal employee struggling to pursue his dream.Overall, this isn't the best campy masala entertainment of the 80s but with access to the fast forward button, it won't be boring and has its appealing moments in the form of eye candy (Moushumi Chatterjee and Meenakshi Sheshadri) and comedy.

silvan-desouza Yash Chopra made some great films with Bachchan mostly the name Vijay was for Bachchan In this film Anil plays a role Amitabh has done to death The film actually seems a poor rehash of TRISHULThe film is one of the films having Anil and Rishi together and also Rajesh Khanna and Anil togetherThe movie is crap and done to death formulaNot even worth a mention The film ends on a clichéd happy end note tooYash Chopra isn't at his best, He himself calls this one of his worst filmsMusic is okayAnil Kapoor looked dark in those days and his perf is good but not great Rishi is okay Rajesh Khanna looks old and he is okay Anupam Kher though younger then Rajesh and similar age to Anil and Rishi plays a character older to them and he is good Hema Malini is typical and so are the rest

alokc Yash Chopra who became famous because Rajesh Khanna the SuperStar acted in his two movies-Itefaq and Daag subsequently switched loyalties and made movies with Amitabh and others directed this movie which could not do well as the focus of the movie was wrong and he chose a wrong actor for the central character and did not develop the characters well. The story of the movie is more meant for a TV serial or soap opera rather than a movie. The characters in the movie could have been made more stronger by deleting some songs. Rajesh Khanna puts in the best performance among other characters. The movie lacks the Yash Chopra touch. The music is just average.
