Zameer

Like most of the routine 70s and 80s productions, the film has much of the improbabilities like lost children, mistaken identity, birth-mark etc. The story-telling and performances are formulaic. However, as the film was made under BR Chopra's banner under the direction of Ravi Chopra, the tastelessness of the drama is at least minimized and nevertheless the cheap items like cheap jokes, cabarets, unnecessary fights if not discarded has at least been avoided which makes the film likable in instances. The music, pace, and the treatment of the film makes it a bit watchable despite the boredom created by the tastelessness of the drama and the average performances given by its lead even though the film had a big starcast of the time like Shammi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Saira Bannu, and Vinod Khanna who fail to emanate a blowing performance owing to a weak story.
