User Reviews

Rekha's performance alone is worth watching.

This is Rekha's first movie in which she plays a negative role. She looks beautiful as always and her performance as a crime lord is very convincing.

The movie had too many fight sequences. All the songs were bad except for one. The one that Rekha and Akshay Kumar dance to. The music video is great too. I can see why censors had a problem with this film.

The story is about Akshay's brother Ajay. He thinks that Rekha has kidnapped him and to get to him, he tries romancing Rekha. Raveena Tandon is Rekha's younger sister, whom Akshay is really in love with, but he pretends like he doesn't like her so that he can get to Rekha. Akshay and Rekha had great chemistry and look great together.

Also, the wrestler known as The Undertaker is in this movie. He plays a wrestler hired by Rekha to fight in a wrestling match she bets on.

Personally, the best think about this movie is Rekha. She changes through many costumes and wigs of different colors, but always looks classy and beautiful. Though the begining is slow, the story picks up. As said before, there are too many action sequences. but you can fast forward that. I would recommend that anyone rent it specifically for Rekha's performance.
