Featured reviews
because it is an Akshay Kumar film we expect it to be a fighting film. But this film is more than that. It covers almost every aspect of our interests, ie. romance, tragedy, action and of course Johny Lever's comedy. A wonderful storyline and performance by Akshay, karishma and shipla Sheety. A defintly must see film. The songs are one of a kind.
Action , emotion , songs in every gener it is a perfect movie . Specially the emotional scene between father and son
This film is so powerful in terms of message and it's songs are very iconic. The father and son relationship is what makes me tear up all the time and Babu's past as Badshah is also interestng. Golden and unforgettable movie.
Akshay Kumar Gave One Of His All Time Best Performance In Jaanwar. No One Else Could Have Done The Role Of "Badshah" & "Babu Lohar" Better Than Him. He Had Put His Heart & Soul In This Movie In Action, Romance, Emotions & Everything. He Deserves Everything For This Movie 👌🔥❤😍
Why would someone watch this movie. Coz this movie lets you dwell deep into the river of emotions. Even if your heart is rock solid, you will feel for the characters in the film. That is called awesome direction and scripting. This is a one unique type of film in 90s and ran in the theater for long enough to become Blockbuster movie of the year.
For the First time Akshay looked so promising as actor, before this he was just a "Khiladi" of Bollywood.
So powerful was the acting in the movie, every moment of this film lets u feel, that you are watching a real story, and real people on the screen. The story is one of a kind and the execution is phenomenal.
The best scene of the film was when Babu Lohar was put in the cage and his kid was left for dogs. Every 90s film, would have shown some heroic flicks which might seem unbelievable, but the effort of the Babu Lohar to bend the Cage instead of breaking it. Justifies a top notch Directional skills. Loved the movie and Watched is many times.
