Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar

I was 12 when i first saw this movie...but till today i still feel the energy of the last race.. I remember taking my cycle out for long rides, putting weights in my socks and going for long rides on my cycles.

The innocent love story, the bonding between friends, the equation sanju shares with his brother and dad. All so perfectly directed and shared on screen.

The background score and music for the movie was truly much ahead of its time. My mom says, People used to jump of there seats in the last scenes.

A must watch for all. Best Sports movie ever.

If you have not yet watched this fabulous movie staring Aamir Khan than do watch it as this is really a must watch flick.It not just holds good on entertainment but is also an inspiring story about transformation of a spoiled youngster played by Aamir Khan. The movie holds great control on nearly all its features.Weather it be the acting by Aamir Khan and the supported cast.Or the music with tracks like Pehla Nasha and the title track. Also a very good cinematography.The last scene is one of the best sports scene in Indian movies.Its inspired by the Hollywood movie "Breaking Away" but it contains many of its original features too. Go for this one.You will not be disappointing.

This is one of my favorite movie. Watched it many time and every time it keeps getting better and better. A very entertaining, energetic,emotional, inspiring movie. The movie is a blend of excellent screenplay, direction, music and acting, great in every aspect of film making that is the reason why you will want to watch it again and again.

It's Mansoor khan's excellent direction that every actor Aamir Khan, Ayesha Jhulka , Deepak Tijori,Pooja Bedi really got into the skin of there character, even Deepak Tijori's friends were so good that no one else could take there place

I still won't forget those days in our childhood days when we used to die to watch such films

JJWS a remake of Breaking Away (1979) But still those days did we care?

The movie is a nice film based on sports which was rarely tackled those days The film has a nice message too and deals with all aspects like ambition, maturity.etc

The film starts off well Aamir's wayyard ways lend a many laughs and also the constant bickering between the school guys is fun to watch The reasons that make Aamir grow as a person are well handled and also the finale which makes you feel a lump go down your throat There is also the love triangle.etc which is treated well

The film did too well that time and is still remembered as one of the best sports films

Direction by Mansoor Khan(Cousin of Aamir) is fabulous Music was a big rage, PEHLA NASHA gave a new style of choreography to the Indian films and all songs are good

Amongst actors Aamir does his role brilliantly, The best part is he never looks he is acting, he is a natural Be it the naughty Aamir to the sensitive Aamir Ayesha Jhulka is as usual Pooja Bedi is awkward but suits her role Deepak Tijori is very good Mamik is good Khulbushan Kharbanda is adequate Don't miss Faizal Khan(in one canteen scene he is standing) and the young Imran Khan as Junior Aamir Khan

Long Review:

Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander (JJWS) is a heart-warming story of a young man, Sanju, his buddies and his family consisting of his father (Ramlal) and an older brother(Ratan). The story is set in a hill station where the richest families send they're kids to school. Apart from top notch schools, there are also a few local ones like Model in which Ramlal is a coach and Ratan, Sanju and their friends attend.

The biggest thing for the people here is the interschool sports competition held every year. Ever since his one cycling victory against the Rival school Rajput, Ramlal has been obsessed with Model beating them, through his obedient older son Ratan. Ratan is Model's model student, in studies, sports and character and the pride of his father. Sanju on the other hand is a happy-go-lucky bloke who loves hanging with friends and having fun in life even if it causes him to fail classes and disappoint his father.

Sanju's friends consist of two good-hearted but not so bright boys and a tomboyish girl, Anjali who is also secretly in love with Sanju. A fact that Sanju is unaware of. When an sudden tragedy occurs, Sanju is transformed from a guy with not a care in the world to a responsible friend, brother, son and athlete.

The stage is now set for a tale of friendship, love, family, sports and competition told beautifully by Mansoor Khan. The music is light and sweet especially Pehla Nasha (amazing job by Udit Narayan) and the title song which is uplifting.

All the performances are in top form. Aamir Khan is as adorable as ever as Sanju. You can't help but love him in this sweet role. Ayesha Jhulka is also very good as the loyal friend. Deepak Tijori is also quite despicable as the bad guy. The rest of the cast is also very competent and fit their roles well. Special mention should go to Mamik who plays Ratan. He put in a very sincere performance. It is too bad he wasn't seen too much after JJWS.

Overall the movie was excellent. Amazing story, great performances and sweet music. Definately recommend it to everyone, young and old alike will enjoy this movie thoroughly.
