Surakksha

Admitted the movie is low budget made, but man, the movie is everything you want if you are in to psychadelic, fast paced, action packed 70's movie. This movie got the background music, loud and proud, car chases, sharks, secret weapons, cyborgs, coffin escapes, snakes, mad scientists, machine guns, flashlights with build in drills, " Khataron ke Ghanti" dubbed super wrist watch, cars with parachutes and pistols to name just a few. The songs Mausam hai Gaane ka and Tum Jo bhi ho are awesome, the variety of music pieces on these songs are excellent and groovy. For me personally this movie is a big fat 10. Bad reviews on this movie are from people blind to see the artisctic value and spirit this movie has, it has flaws which are part of the charm. It is not for nothing that this movie launched Mithun into stardom, energy explodes off him in this movie! Also this movie was so well received in 1979, that it spawned one of the first if not the first Bollywood sequels with Wardat (1981) and Soochna (1991), the latter was unfortunately unreleased because of the passing of Ravikant Nagaich, the Director. Surakksha is a Bad ass cult-classic!
