Strong script, deep suspense and the birth of a talented actor umesh shukla as shiela and governer.

Yaar gaddar is a suspense action thriller well directed by veteran umesh mehra . The movie released in 1994. The script is tight. It keeps the audience engaged. Sequences are well weaved. The 2nd part of the film, when mithun receives Sheila's case file and delivers dialogues is the most important part of the film. There's the suspense hidden. And mithun da in just one monologue proves his mettle as an actor. All actors are convincing. But the performance to watch is of veteran actor umesh shukla. He does the role of shiela and governor with equal ease. He's brilliant in both roles. Both roles look completely different, spontaneous and convincing. The aspect of split personality is well handled in the character shiela and governor. Umesh shukla is the main attraction of the film. Umesh shukla's potrayal of shiela and governor is equal to other iconic villain roles of bollywood. I wonder why didn't umesh shukla do more roles of various genre in different hindi movies...! Anyway yaar gaddar is must watch for suspense lovers.

Once again hats off to umesh shukla.

Yaar Gaddar has its pluses and minuses!

Umesh Mehra's 1994 flick 'Yaar Gaddar' is an interesting watch, The film has pluses and minuses. Pluses: The film has an interesting plot, Good music lovely songs and good performances. Minuses: The film's climax is a letdown, and the comedy track is a yawn. All n all 'Yaar Gaddar' deserves a one time watch!

Performances: Mithun Chakraborty is an excellent actor and he's amazing in this film too. Saif Ali Khan impresses. The Chemistry between Mithun and Saif works big time. Somy Ali is good. Saif's heroine is decent. Prem Chopra, Gulshan Grover, Puneet Issar and Anjana Mumtaz are good. Johnny Lever's comedy track is bland. The actor who plays the role of the villain is okay.

Yaar Gaddar is an above-average entertainer, watch it if you've got nothing to do in a plain day.

Fun

Inspector Shanker Verma is an honest and dedicated Police Inspector, who has been serving on the police force for many years.

He lives with his mom, and a brother, Jai.

Shankar was in love with Shashi, but the affair did not last, leaving him with a broken heart.

Jai, on the other hand, is precocious, and always in trouble.

This precociousness lands him in a soup when he is unable to explain as to why he robbed a bank and a killed a person.

This is a stylish movie that is very watchable with a caveat.

The violence is decidedly G rated.

Guns don't really fire.

You just hear sound effects of shots.

And people die, but there is no blood. Guess that's

It's a fun fast moving film.

Trivia
The Gulshan Grover Somy Ali affair came to a end during the making of the film. Somy would tell lies to the unit saying Gulshan Grover was chasing her and harassing her. She made it seem like Gulshan was running after her and she was not interested. Saif Ali Khan finally had enough of the stories and confronted Gulshan. Saif told Gulshan to back off and stop bugging Somy Ali. Saif verbally trashed Gulshan saying Somy was stressed from his behavior. This is when Gulshan had enough and broke down . He showed Saif all the love letters Somy Ali had written him . He also told Saif that he kept quiet about the affair because he did not want to ruin Somy's name. Saif was shocked out of his mind. Mithun Chakraborthy was furious about the situation and demanded Somy Ali come and explain herself. When Somy arrived to the sets,Saif Ali Khan blew up at her for lieing. Saif said that Gulshan was keeping quite to save her reputation and she was taking advantage of that. Saif then yelled at Somy and told her never ever to speak to him again.
