This movie was a hurriedly made remake. The movie had Rajesh Khanna the superstar as its central character. The movie was a better movie than the political movies made then - Inquilaab and Yeh Desh but suffered may be due to the fact that it had all the negatives of a movie made in a hurry. The dialogues, screenplay were hurriedly written and could have been made better. Bappi Lahiri's music is not jarring. Shabna Azmi puts in a good performance but Shatrughan Sinha screams his way in the movie and looks a misfit. The characters are loose but Rajesh Khanna the Superstar fresh from his success of Avataar tries to hold the ground. A good remake which suffered due to its hurried release. Otherwise a good watch for Rajesh Khanna fans, He has done justice to his role - from a barber to a Chief Minister. This movie shows his class. A true Super Star ACTOR.

Aaj Ka MLA is a comedy with an underlying message. It is a remake of the telugu hit "MLA Edukondalu" which had Dasari Narayana Rao as its hero & director. He also directs the Hindi version.

There were 3 films being made with similar themes at that time - Aaj Ka MLA, Inquilaab (Amitabh) & Yeh desh (Jeetu). Both Amit & Kaka competed with each other to release their film first. Inquilaab got released first, then Yeh desh & finally Aaj Ka MLA & all of them bombed.

Rajesh Khanna looks handsome in this film & carries his role with authority & assurance. He mixes comedy with emotion adroitly & is a treat to watch. He has enjoyed doing this role, it seems & it shows.

Shabana Azmi & Shatru are adequate. Asrani is hilarious in the single scene that he appears in.

Rajesh gives a riveting speech in the climax that will surely keep the audience glued to their seats.

The film flopped maybe because it was made in a hurry & also the expectations were very high with Kaka fans.

The opening song "Tirupati Balaji" is a vigorous kirtan but the other songs do not match up to this.

The film however portrays the political calls with doses of humor.

Dasari had plans to re-release the film a few months later because the political situation was apt for the film, but dropped the idea.

It is a treat for kaka fans.

It surely deserved a better run at the box office.
