Well, I'm keeping aside all the accolades, awards, and the commercial success the film saw and reviewing the film unbiased. Within first few reels, the story line turns predictable, which further proceeds with the regular cliches, contrivances, and superstitious orthodox, familiar from 70s capers. The film is much of 'Ganga Jumna" set in an urban milieu. Despite this, the film maintains an interest and witnesses several instances of a good direction. But above all, two aspects raise the bar of the film. The first is the taut script of Salim-Javed, and the next is the intriguing role of Amitabh Bachchan, which make the difference and hold one to the edge of the seats.
