Weird film

India vs Pakistan is a subject exploited to death in Bollywood In this film we are introduced to some weird country i never heard of Where Amrish plays the lord or some king

Naseer,Aditya,Javed,Dharam play captains and go to finish him and many weird things happen

This is one of the first film where you see Naseer, Aditya, Javed as girls in a scene the impact is funny at least

Direction is okay Music is bad

Dharam repeats his act and looks aged as he was in his 50-60's and yet played the hero Naseer excels, Aditya and Javed are okay Amrish Puri is as usual
