Soundtrack:

Nice movie and versatility of Bachchan evident

Amitabh Bachchan reined in 70's and this is one of his memorable films

The story is clichéd but it's handled well

The scenes between Amitabh and Randhir at the start are good The turning point is well handled

The appearance of the second Bachchan also is apt and surprising The love story of Amitabh-Rakhee is well done too

The villainy does seem rather pale but yet the film is well handled

Rakesh Behl does a good job Music is superb, especially AATI RAHENGI

Amitabh carries both roles brilliantly and suits them both and plays them with a difference Randhir is okay Neetu is good Amjad Khan hams
