Virasat (1997)
10/10
Anil kapoor outscores kamal hassan
20 September 2015
Virasaat is by far the most superior Bollywood film of 1997.Virasaat being the official reamke of "THEVAR MAGAN" comaprison with the original is inevitable.After minutely watching both Thevar Magan & Virassat I can safely conclude both Anil Kapoor & Tabbu outscores Legendary Kamal Hassan & Revathy respectively.Anil Kapoor is more restrained than kamal Hassan in his depiction of shakti Thakur.Tabbu delivers one of her finest performance which is simply outstanding.Amrish puri is superb in the role of old village patriarch.Pooja Batra is decent.Even in 2015 the performance of Mr.Kapoor looks relevant and praiseworthy.When virasaat released there was hardly any actor to match versatility of Anil Kapoor who simply carries the entire film on his shoulder ably bolstered by a brilliant Tabbu.

Rakhwala (1989)
7/10
Rakhwala an anil kapoor show through the way
4 August 2015
Rakhwala is a typical masala entertainer that simply entertains you.Anil Kapoor plays the quintessential 'tapori' to the hilt which clearly reflects his star power at late 80's.Rakhwala is a rare example where an actor towers above the hackneyed script and shoddy direction to deliver a defining performance.Music of the film was peppy and foot tapping specially "tak dhin na dhin......". This film did exceedingly well in B & C centres.All the support cast including Shabana Azma were outright average except ashrani & annu kapoor .Rakhwala is a decent watch largely because of anil kapoor's silken acting prowess as the 'tapori'. Rakhwala came after blockbuster "RAM LAKHAN" and the makers cashed on to it.
