After many successful films Big B had with MKD, he came to Mard, this film wasn't a flop but a hit. But, it was criticized for its average storyline. The film was one of the few films of MKD before the disaster GJS, that wasn't good but was a hit. The movie is not typical and it shows the British rule on India. But, Big B as the mad KO Darda Nani legate and his campaign against the British rule over Indian isn't shown well. The villains are shown typecast and they aren't convincing. If a movie is based on the British rule, there is supposed to be British soldiers tortured the Indians. Big B obviously is shown tough because he gets tortured 3 times in the film where he is chained and he doesn't feel pain. The movie is stupid in its comic scenes, the stretch of events and the romance dragged to final action isn't well shown, but the ending is as decent as it can be. Because this is a Bellwood film, don't expect an awesome ending, but expect a decent Bolly style ending where the villains all get sucked into quick sand. The movie storyline is pretty average and the handling of MKD is definitely not up to standards. Even Coolie was better than this, yeh picture ne to mere Saar mien Boot Darda diya LOL. But, Big B and Amrita Singh act well, actors are up to standards though the script is weak at parts. Overall, another average film that was a hit.
