Sentimento Ferido

This movie was probably last original bollywood action film. The Actors are tremendous, One of Sunny Deol's best performance if not the best. This movie marked the end of an Action Era in Bollywood, which was ruled by actors such as Amitabh, Sunny, Sanjay and Anil and many others before love stories of late 90's caught the attention such as Hum Aapke Hain Kaun and DDLJ and many more. Sunny Deol is brilliant in this film and so is Amrish Puri who sadly passed away last year, and will missed by billions of Indians. The confrontation of Sunny and Amrish Puri is amazing...acting at its best. Sunny won National Award for this film. If you want to know bollywood inside and out I highly recommend this movie, not the movies that are being shown today, most of the today's movies are either have the same story or a remake of a Hollywood movie. This movie is a must watch movie!!!

The anger, the desperation, the angst, the joy of being with loved ones, the sadness, the disgust at the system, vigilante revenge and the dialogues (balwant rai ke kutte, sab bikhe huen hain..and i can go on)..well no one could done this role with such hard hitting conviction and reality than Sunny Deol.

How I wish more directors would have given Sunny such roles..wow does he deliver here!

How I wish Rajkumar Santhoshi and Sunny had teamed up more after Damini and Ghatak. Only Santhoshi was able to extract such career defining performance from Sunny.

I first saw Ghayal when in school, and have seen it many times over the years and recently too, and everytime I feel that I haven't seen a better action movie. The music by Bappida complements the story, the back ground score is just superb and Meenakshi Sheshadri is excellent as the hero's love interest. The movie is also aided by having the best ever villain late Amrish Puri and great supporting artists - the late Om Puri, Kulbushan Kharbandha, late Shafi Inamdar, Raj Babbar, moushami chatterjee and Annu Kapoor

All in all, India's best action emotion movie ever, and Sunny, fully deserving of the best actor filmfare award and National award special jury -best actor.

Never to be missed.

Ghayal is one of the few good action films of the 90's but it is beyond good. Ghayal is one of the best action films ever. Raj Kumar Santoshi has made a hard hitting film. What is especially notable is Sunny Deol's Filmfare and National Award winning performance.

If you start counting the ultimate action movies of bollywood. Ghayal would surely figure in the top three Maybe upped by Sholay and Phool Aur Kaante A young boxer's loving brother goes missing and weeks later he finds him dead. The culprit seems to be his employer. Of course the boxer then tries to take help of the law and the police but himself gets implicate in the murder After hours of police torture he is jailed for life.

He then escapes jail and swears the kill the villain in 24 hrs. thus begins an action thriller so fantastically made that Hindi cinema has never really been able to rival this rajkumar santoshi classic

Pitted against the wits of the boxer is a CID officer (om puri great as usual) who as smart and dedicated to the cause of saving the villain Vigilante action had never been so intense and smart. Recommended to good movie buffs. 8/10

If you have not seen this movie and are ready to take my words, see it. One of the good Hindi action movies. I just wish that Amrish Puri was given more footage in the movie and a stronger role of-course. Strong performance by Sunny Deol. May be not as good as his performance in Arjun or Damini, but he can not give his best in all of his movies, can he? His performance is definitely impressive and hence the movie is worth watching. Sunny Deol is so perfect for such hair-raising roles. My own blood starts boiling when I see his action movies.......smile.......
