Ridiculous trash, but useful for embarrassing fans of the cast.
The 80's will probably be remembered as the decade that the greatest stars of Hindi cinema made their career-worst garbage. Amitabh made Shahenshah, Jaadugar and the straight-to-video Ganga Jamuna Saraswati, Jeetendra, Rajesh Khanna, Vinod Khanna, Shatrughan Sinha, all tried and failed to come back.
The most shameful of the lot must be Dharmendra. In this film, though, he not only digs his own career grave a few feet deeper, he also drags down such worthies as Shammi Kapoor (gasp!), Naseerudin Shah and Amrish Puri with him.
One notable song; not for its music, but for Dharmendra dancing. You read that right... Dharmendra dancing. It's not a pretty sight and you can't see this film without being convinced that he was just dying to find a way out of films.
