Yaarana

Definitely one of my favourite movies amjad khan and bachan really shine it is one the most memorable films of amjad khan along with sholay and qurbani. He was one my most favourite actors next to kader khan. They will always be missed indeed.

Amitabh proved himself 2 in 1, what I literally mean by 2 in 1 is that, in this movie Amitabh role was comedy as well as the dominant action man, he without hesitating performed his roles very well, this must of been very challenging to do 2 roles in the same movie, there was a contrast, I would simply give this movie 10 out o 10, there were loads of good points about the film, the storyline was brilliant, the actors played there role very well, All I would say this movie will be one of my best movies of all times, I can assure you if you buy this DVD, or record it from the television like I did on last Saturday on max television you will at the end of this film, reach for the rewind button. This movie is one of those which will stick into your heads forever, and you cannot get over it. This movie delivers what its audience needs. Genre, Action, Comedy, Musical, Drama, and Family. all these mixture made this movie into a super hit movie in the year 1981. This was a big blockbuster super hit movie. I would say watch it, you'll love it.

Yaarana is a movie about friendship. Amitabh Bachchan in a powerhouse performance. Alongside Amitabh is the late Amjad Khan in another powerhouse performance. The movie is a simple tale about 2 friends and their sacrifices they have to make to help each other including family and financial situations. Yaarana is a light hearted entertaining movie which gets quite serious towards the interval. Amitabh is always brilliant, but its Amjad Khan who gives a surprising role as a good hearted character. After Many negative roles Amjad Khan finally plays a Good guy and does a Fantastic job of it. The movie was a Blockbuster Hit in India. The music was also a Super Hit, Tere jaisa yaar is my favourite among the songs. This is One movie that i never get bored of it. A big time entertainer and Must see

Yaarana review :

A film based on childhood friendship; Yaarana was about a village simpleton Amitabh Bachchan whose city bred bestie Amjad Khan helps him become a famous singer.

Directed by Rakesh Kumar, the film's first half was a breezy comedy while the second half was action packed. The role suited Amitabh perfectly and he was brilliant in each and every scene whether as Kishan singing "Bhole o Bhole" to his dear friend or later, bashing up the goons in climax. This was a film purely depending on the super stars histrionics.

What makes Yaarana special for me is the "Saara Zamaana" song where Amitabh appeared in a bulb fitted suit. I saw that song on DD National programme 'Chitrahaar' and demanded my grandparents to buy me that suit for my fifth birthday!! I used to dance to that song impersonating Amitabh's signature steps.

Yaarana, as a film, was an average fare but it was Amitabh and his bulb wala dress which made it a box office success.

Must watch if you value friendship and love 80's music
