Parvarish

The movie was brilliant for its time. After the success of Deewar and Sholay, most of the directors kept the best roles in the movies for Amitabh Bacchan. Here as well, Manmohan Desai projected Amitabh as the honest good cop, intending all the sympathies and attention from the viewers but who steals the show? It's Vinod Khanna! Vinod Khanna was fabulous in the movie, he always stole the show even if the roles written for him may or may not be bigger than his co-actors. He is the ultimate grey shade hero of the Indian cinema. No one can beat his personality, his charisma, his style, the panther walk and his brilliance in adopting any role thrown to him. He clearly beats Amitabh here. The movie was the great Indian entertainer with the top two superstars of the 70s.

A GREAT film with a good STORY LINE, HAS a GREAT CAST but ONE STAR STANDS OUT OF THEM ALL, Mr. Amitabh Bachchan,

What can we say,Which hasn't already been said about Amitabh Bachchan, He turns an hit film into a blockbuster with the performance's he delivers, Thn with Vinod Khanna and Shammi Kapoor providing good performances as well, but as always Amitabh Bachchan stands out.

The film runs very smoothly and with negative role by Amjad Khan and Kader Khan Parvarish had something for everyone.

Parvarish is a must watch if your Amitabh Bachchan or a Vinod Khanna fan, its has a great script, Some great songs which change the mood of the film and that ain't just placed in the film they fit in with the story.

If you liked Suhaag, Amar Akbar Anthony and Khoon Pasina this is a much watch film, a film you can watch over and over again.

Vinod Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan, the two biggest superstars of the 1970s in one film, a sureshot formula for success at the time. Amitabh was fabulous as the honest police officer who could do anything for his line of duty. However, the real star who steals the show is Vinod Khanna. His screen presence could not be matched by anyone, he meticulously did justice to his role of a suave, stylish but ruthless criminal bound by revenge. His dialogues, emotions and humour, all overshadowed Amitabh in the film. Both VK and AB, great actors with a great supporting cast in Shammi Kapoor, Kadar Khan (in his earliest villian role), Amjad Khan played their parts well. The only flip side is the presence of some boring scenes with both the actresses.

Review By Kamal K

Superb, superb, superb .... A great entertaining film by great director, Manmohan Desai. He was the King of masala entertaining movies and this movie is full of his marks throughout! Excellent script, catchy camera work, extra ordinary shot takings, and engrossing direction, thrilled to watch action scenes. Superb acting by all. Great musical score by Laxmikant Pyarelal. Jaate to jaane jana is a treat to watch!

I had seen this movie so three times, and enjoyed it every time. It's a family drama, action packed thriller film.

Even new generation would find it interesting.

Watch it and enjoy it. It will also bring you out from bad mood, if any!

Brilliant movie, trend setter for the future movies to follow. It was a huge blockbuster and had two of the biggest superstars who were ruling the box-office at that time. Amitabh and Vinod. Great performances by Shammi Kapoor, Kadar Khan and the rest of the cast. Nitu Singh and Shabana were good as well, however the one who stood out was Vinod Khanna. His role was more important than Amitabh's. Amitabh's role had just one shade into it, Vinod had to change the shades and emotions as the movie runs to the climax, he surely portrayed it meticulously. The grey shades in his role were captured by him perfectly. His screen presence, his persona, his acting, he really gave Amitabh a tough time. He was a trend setter and an icon which he proved in this movie. The movie rocked, surely some scenes look dated now but that is because of the fact that they have been copied over and over again by other movies in the last 40 years.
