German Indian film with DEFA superstar Gojko Mitic
After several appearances in Karl May films such as "Winnetou II" and the Alfred Vohrer action hit "Unter Geiern", Gojko Mitic was the leading actor in a GDR Indian film for the second time. The beautifully photographed and equipped film is a true gem. Great shots of the muscular protagonist against a wonderful natural backdrop make the film something very special. Thanks to his impressive physique, Gojko Mitic also impresses in the numerous fight scenes. Rolf Römer and Lilo Grahn are also convincing. The remaining actors act more statuesquely, in keeping with the German acting tradition. Despite these small flaws, this film is well made and well worth seeing.
