Featured reviews
One of Salman Khan's earlier and better films, loosely modeled on Conan, the Barbarian. The plot is solid, Amrita is scary and glamorous in turns, and Salman Khan really impresses. Was Prince Amar Singh played by Arbaaz Khan? The name is not credited. The palace ruins are sinister and the whole atmosphere of the film changes drastically as it progresses... from jokes and pranks and flirtations to curses, vicious ghosts, scary ruins and tragic palace intrigues.
I had watched this film 20 years ago.. I had this film on VHS then. I have this film on DVD now, and I am watching it today on a TV re-run. The sheer entertainment factor of the film persists. Go for it.

Well where do I start. As a kid I loved this movie. I give it 10 to compensate for its poor rating of 4 where it languishes currently(it probably deserves a 6.5 tho) Getting back; what not does this movie have: a sinister palace(which was btw archaeologically excavated/discovered), roving spirits, rebirth, and the triumph of righteousness. Of courses some of the sub-plots in the story line are corny, esp. regarding the palaces' dark past but who cares.
This movie was unique when it was made, a rarity in bombay cinema at that time. It has salman khan in the spankingly good form, and a plot to put 'the mummy' at shame. Okay not quite, but c'mon, it deserves credit for being bold, suspenseful, and so very appealing to a kids fantasy. I suggest people actually watch it before judging it by its rating here. And remember it was released in 1992, so don't expect a visual spectacle. Though considering that, you would be surprised to see how good it looks.

May be people during 1992 were not used to watch this kind of movies. But guys, this is really one of the best movie i have ever seen. What i liked most was the script of the movie and obviously the role of Amrita Singh, she was amazing in the film. Sheeba looked very cute in the movie and obviously Salman Khan - no words for his great acting. I have seen this movie 5 times. It always look great. If people have not seen this movie yet, I will recommend them to see it. Horror, Action, Romance, Good script, Music - everything is in the film. One of the great horror films. Even today you can enjoy the story. Enjoy and have a great fun watching this movie.
I watched this movie when I was a kid n really scared n even now after 25 years it still have the power to scare you n I think it was the best n by far the excellent movie of 90s n don't know why rated only 4.5 n about acting Amrita Singh was unbelievable in her role n Salman Khan was brilliant to watch as Suryavanshi n every character of this masterpiece like Kadar Khan Sahab , Shakti kapoor Sahab n lead Actress Sheeba played her part superbly n it was a complete package of thrill, suspense, mystery n full of horror n a must watch movie so 10/10 from me for this amazing movie.
A good horror film for the early 90's.
Me and my brother used to be terrified of Amrita Singh in this movie.
I believe the film is very underrated.
It was very different and unique for its time. It's not classified as a horror film but as a romantic thriller. However, I still found it scary as a kid.
This is definitely one of Salman's better films during that era, although it was a flop.
If you like supernatural mysteries, You will love this film. But keep in mind that it was made in 1992.
The reason it was a flop is because bollywood film watchers weren't used to something like this.
The film has everything; comedy, action, suspense, horror, mystery, fantasy and off course, singing and dancing (this is bollywood after all)
