Bahurani

The story of the movie is a very old one.The story revolves around Rakesh Roshan and Rekha.Rekha has proved herself as a best actress once again after her gorgeous thriller"Khoon Bhari Maang".It is very unfortunate in this movie is that others get no score for their acting .Rakesh Bedi tries to make film viewers laugh but he fails .The songs are very entertaining.The climax is made in a stupid way and a lengthy one.The comedy adds a plus to the movie but not to a large extent.There is nothing special in this movie except some songs.Rekha succeeds in her Compettion as a best actress compared to new actresses in the 80's.Watch the movie for just relaxing yourself.I give 6/10 for this movie.

Doubtlessly, a lovely romantic comedy reminiscent of the style and tone of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's classics. Directed by Manick Chatterjee, who previously directed Ghar and who was no more by the time the film released, the film is generally subtle and humorous in both story and execution. Rakesh Roshan plays this urban young man whose father insists that he marry a village girl. Even before meeting her, the guy is petrified that he would have to marry a girl he immediately envisions as primitive, undeveloped, plain-looking and homely. On top of that, he walks out on the wedding ceremony without even noticing the bride.

But this is not his story at all - it is expectedly Rekha's story, and as opposed to what he saw in his mind's eye - not only is she not just a crude and unsightly villager, she is actually a true village belle, who is not only very attractive but also happens to be an educated, worldly and intellectual woman, who is fully versed in the English language but also in the ways of the modern world. As part of her plan to teach him a lesson for his arrogance and prejudice, she decides to conceal her identity and work at his company as a secretary. What happens next is a very predictable romance which is actually very entertaining as well.

Bahurani is consistently enjoyable in its simplicity and heart. It really is wholesome, quality entertainment for the entire family with a nice commentary on stereotypes and class prejudice. Rekha gives a beautifully refined performance in the role of the sensible and highly sophisticated Madhuri. She cried only once during the entire film, which is indicative of the film's mood and light nature. Rakesh Roshan plays second-fiddle to Rekha like he did in plenty of films where they co-acted. Support is good especially from Utpal Dutt and Deven Varma in their regular comic bits. Bahurani is a heartwarming and watchable all through.
