Clearly the movie is well ahead of it's times, let's not have any doubts about that.This one must have surpassed the majority's taste & intellect when it first got released , with people walking out and thinking, crazy stuff , why on earth will anyone bury bodies in the backyard and watch 'snuff' movies for pleasure.wonder how many people have related this movie to the recent gory escapades involving the famous 'pander-kohli' case near Delhi,where children were raped ,killed and dumped in the backyard. Reality in 2007 , that got scripted in 1980, that's what I call a classic, ahead of it's times. RK is good as he plays the sadistic murderer, PD is very very good in this movie(her 5th here). She's quiet fresh and plays her role to cudos.people would go for the climax of the film, but the anticlimax(oh yes , there's one & the movie's true highlight) is what excited me, and that was somewhere after the middle, it was that dark room with the projecter camera beaming a 35 mm snuff film with it's two grim audiences, who get startingly discovered by PD. This was some chilling scene...brrr.
Good story line, some directorial hiccups of course, but on the whole bhaarti raaja gets the pulitzer from me :-)
