Review By Kamal K
It was a story that was brought to life by Manmohan Desai. Logic did not find a place in Desai's dictionary and he could create unimaginable situations, far removed from reality. He believed in providing non-stop entertainment and this movie had the ingredients to keep the fans engrossed.
Shashi Kapoor dominates the screen even as Shatrughan Sinha gives a stellar performance in days when he was looking to shed his image of a villain and seek roles as a hero. It was not the best of his movies, but Kapoor could count this as one of his biggest hits, thanks to a taut story and some delightful music by Rahul Dev Burman. The soulful Na Koi Dil Mein Samaya with Prem hugging Rahul is an emotional number that lingers much after the film is over. May not be a classic, but AGLJ is worth a revisit anytime.
