This movie was much before Spielberg came on the scene in Hollywood.Hats off to the director who relentlessly went ahead with a fairy tale story & even had the guts to complete the same.I watched the film out of curiosity & let me tell you I was pleasantly surprised at the going on in the film.Firstly, the set design was fabulous,the costumes in order given the outdoor nature of the movie,Terrific performances by Biswajit,Vinod,Alka,Rekha,Keshto,Bhushan,Amjad,& a cameo by Samba..Looking at the get up of Amjad its very clear that his sholay outfit was inspired from this film.The intrigue in the film is cool & some action scenes between biswajit & vinod were carried out very well.Rekha,even though this was her 1st Hindi film as per the records,carried herself like a true pro & even the intimate scenes were handled excellently.Some wildlife shots were a bit harsh on the viewers but then its a jungle film so OK.Overall I recommend it to all the fans of Rekha & Vinod.The dialogues too are quite good.This film could have become a classic with little better preparation but nevertheless one can see the honesty in all performers.Do not know how it fared at the box office but certainly not a wash out.
