Manmohan Desai films used to cram many stories into 1 film which were illogical yet funny
Post AAA he wanted the trio to come together but Vinod Khanna had taken a break from films hence Shatru was signed
The film is quite entertaining and actually fun
The John Jani Janardhan was a nice type song which also introduced Bachchan in the film
The film moves at a nice pace, the friendship, love, comedy everything gets it's place
Though there are lot of loopholes like how come the duplicate of Dimple(the third heroine) do lip reading from a distance and that too when the person faces his back and how do Kader and Amjad not recognize Pran
There are several well written scenes like Amitabh and Reena faking up the story to unite Shatru and Hema
The director too nicely shows, on one side Shatru leaves drinking and Amitabh starts
Even the re emergence of Pran in the story and then the film picks up and till the end it is well handled
Directorally Manmohan Desai does a good job, In his films logic took a backseat always, This is his last decent film Music was a big hit
Amitabh Bachchan excelled in his part, like AAA he gets to do some drunk scenes, comedy and romance and he does it all well, even drama Shatrughan Sinha acts weirdly in drunken scenes and is okay otherwise Rishi is likable Hema Malini gets the meatiest role and she is okay Reena Roy is average the third heroine is okay
Amongst the villains Amrish Puri excels, Kader Khan and Amjad Khan are as usual Prem Chopra is a miscast as Kader's son while Shakti is okay
