Ashim Samanta's 1995 hit 'Ahankaar' is a typical Bollywood family drama. The twist in the tale is that its protagonist is dumb... but has a bunch of conning people in his family, minus his mother, and a lot of baddies also. The film script is mediocre, but the filmmaker handles the script with ease. 'Ahankaar' works because not for once your disconnected from the film, your entertained completely. A winner all the way. Two Thumbs Up!
Pluses of the film: The filmmaker has handled the script with ease, as said before. The film is a complete family entertainer. The film has lovely songs, music by Anu Malik. Tere Andar Meri Jaan and Oh Bamba Oh are chart-busters. Performances are perfect: Mithun can never be doubted, he's excellent as always. Mamta is decent. Aroona Irani is superb, Monish Bahl is good. Prem Chopra and others are perfect.
Minuses: Not many.
on the whole 'Ahankaar' is a time-pass flick.
