Raveena Tandon's debut, 13 April 2009
7/10
Author: ibuk from United Kingdom

Normally I trawl through the IMDb movies section to see a movie I can review for fun, that was where I came across this early Salman Khan movie. I was shocked to find not one single review for it, then I decided that I was going to take it upon myself to put that right. It brought fond memories of a happy childhood watching Bollywood movies. I remember watching this movie in the early 90's and thought that before I review it it would be sensible to watch it again. After watching it I can say it has dated fairly well. Patthar Ke Phool was known for Raveena Tandon's first movie and for a debut she was pretty good. Patthar Ke Phool tells the story of two lovers,Salman Khan and Raveena Tandon. Salman's father is a policeman whilst Raveena Tandon's is a criminal. Throughout the movie we get the feeling that there is good in him and the real villain is his associate Goga Kapoor. Patthar ke phool could have gone the clichéd route(the usual Bollywood drama about lovers and disapproving parents) but it refrains from that. Salman's father is getting heavily involved in the case of Raveena's criminal father and is intent on bringing him to justice. Raveena's father organises his murder on the same day Salman and Raveena come to him and tell him they are getting married. During the conversation Salman Khan brings up that his father is a policeman and tells him his father's name. Raveena's father attempts to stop the murder but he is too late and Salman's father gets killed. Salman then decides to follow in his father's footsteps and become a policeman and finds out the truth about Raveena's father, what does he do?watch it to find out. Salman Khan and Raveena Tandon were pretty good but in my opinion Vinod Mehra outshone them as Salman's father. Unfortunately he died of a heart attack before the movie was released(may he rest in peace) The music is exceptional, my favourites being Kabhi too chalia lagta hain. I have fond memories of that song since it makes references to several Bollywood movies in it. Patthar Ke Phool needs more appreciation from fans of Bollywood and deserves to have more comments posted on IMDb about it, surely there are fans of Bollywood out there that remember this movie.

Highly recommended by me
