      Rakhwala an anil kapoor show through the way

      Rakhwala is a typical masala entertainer that simply entertains you.Anil Kapoor plays the quintessential 'tapori' to the hilt which clearly reflects his star power at late 80's.Rakhwala is a rare example where an actor towers above the hackneyed script and shoddy direction to deliver a defining performance.Music of the film was peppy and foot tapping specially "tak dhin na dhin......". This film did exceedingly well in B & C centres.All the support cast including Shabana Azma were outright average except ashrani & annu kapoor .Rakhwala is a decent watch largely because of anil kapoor's silken acting prowess as the 'tapori'. Rakhwala came after blockbuster "RAM LAKHAN" and the makers cashed on to it.
