What's the morale of the story!!, 10 May 2005
1/10
Author: faceman_163 from Kuwait, Kuwait

Sanjay Khan's bad attempt to be creative. The film flopped miserably when released in 1980. Big Star cast like Sanjay himself, Zeenat Aman & the great Raj Kapoor could not save the film from sinking deeply as a flop. The claimed big budget that was spent on this movie & not up to the mark special effects indicate how bad the direction of the movie was handled.

The film took a very long time to be completed, but the result was very disappointing.

It was during the making of this movie that Zeenat & Sanjay got married and divorced in a tasteless way leading Sanjay to hit Zeenat in public. A big drama was created after-wards.

Sanjay Khan made one more movie after this one called "Kala Dhanda Goray Log", which also was a big flop with big star cast. He then went on to make TV serials.By the way Parveen Babi did not act in this film & her name needs to be removed from the credits.
