csn_6121 January 2012
The review as given in Ultramovie parlour website reproduced:

Shamshir Singh who has deserted the British Army and joined Azad Hind Fouj, is given shelter from the pursuing Britishers in Hong Kong by Suzy, a local girl, with whom he falls in love. After six months he has to return to India and when he finds Suzy pregnant he marries her, promising to come back after independence to fetch her and their child. In India, he confides to his wife Laju about Suzy and the child. However, while looting a British Bank, he is betrayed by his comrade Shankar who tries to flee with the looted gold but he in turn is duped by his accomplice Mac who gets himself arrested after secretly dumping the gold in a lake. After independence, while Suzy with her son awaits the return of Shamshir Singh to Hong Kong, Lajus son Raj grows up to become a police officer. Raj follows Mac on his release from jail which leads him to his fathers killer Shankar, now known as Devidayal. Raj finds that the diver brought by Devidayal from Hong Kong for salvaging gold from the lake, is actually the son of Suzy i.e. his stepbrother. While investigating Devidayals activities, Raj comes into contact and falls in love with Roma-Devi, girl-owner of a Tea Estate in Darjeeling, who was caught in the web of Devidayal. Does Raj meet his brother? does Devidayal succeed in unearthing gold? what happens to Suzy, Roma-Devi and others?

Decent film

Warning: Spoilers
Mahesh Bhatt at the start of his career made commercial films like this. The film has Vinod Khanna in a dual role, starting of being a freedom fighter who dies and then as the son who is a police inspector. The film is a typical commercial film but yet it's well handled by Bhatt. The film starts with Vinod Khanna running from British officers in Hongkonk and landing into Helen's house and later having sex with her which leads to a son who later becomes Danny. the film is a decent watch though it does have typical formula ingredients and at times gets lengthy

Direction is good Music is superb, Chahiye Thoda Pyaar is superb while Muskurata Mera Yaar is the best song, rest are good

Vinod Khanna plays both the roles superbly and leaves a mark, Shabana Azmi who that time was making a foray into commercial cinema is superb too, Danny too is amazing, Ranjeet is good as the villain, Helen is as usual, rest are okay
