This movie is a classic entertainer , with great star cast ... good music ... great direction..and great performances by all the cast .
It is one of the best movies of Amitabh Bachan who is well supported by the other cast... Shatrughan Sinha and Zeenat Aman were superb and brilliant.
An all time great Entertainer .
Best friends (Amitabh Bachan and Shatrughan Sinha) since childhood, a righteous cop and a lawyer who represents criminals in court become rivals when they fall for the same woman (Zeenat Aman).
An emotionally-charged action drama that benefits from the rivalry between Amitabh Bachan and Shatrughan Sinha- allegedly their friendship got frosty after this. Strange that this film touches upon friendship and jealousy and misunderstandings, and how the two friends override this problem. Of course, Prem Chopra causes most of the problems which leads to dishoom, dishoom and thrill a minute action. Loved the ending with the aircraft. You can tell the production is high, which paid off as the film was a big hit.
Great performances from Bachan, Shatrughan Sinha and Zeenat Aman are like a hefty anchor, driving simultaneously with the well-sculpted plot and crisply direction. Classic.

This is one of Amitabh's classic top movie. Pran and Zeenat were exceptionally brilliant actors on screen. The dialogue by Jared Akhtar must be noted. The music composer Laxmikant did a great job composing some great music. Helen and other actors were also brilliant. A perfect movie to watch.
One of the best performance by Bachan and sinha . Loved their acting , songs were the best part of the movie . Zeenat as good as well .
This movie would make you keep watching again and again. It has got a great repeat value. Great Story, and Very compelling screenplay that you will not be bored for a minute. Plus It has dose of entertainment at each stage of movie.
And I find the Climax of the movie Super. Its Hollywood kind. You will be amazed to see such high class movies used to made in golden age of cinema.

- TriviaIt was during Parveen Babi's medical curing in Banglore that a major incident occurred. She woke up in the middle lf the night crying for Amitabh Bachchan. She was hysterical and uncontrollable. Mahesh Bhatt decided to swallow his pride and have a man to man talk with Amitabh . Mahesh visited the sets of Dostana. He pleaded with Amitabh to be extra nice to Parveen as she had a serious mental condition. Amitabh listened to Mahesh's story and promised he would do as much as he could. He asked Mahesh to take care of her as she had several pending films left to complete. This angered Mahesh. He thought Amitabh stating this only indicated that Amitabh was only concerned about himself and not Parveen's health. This would lead to several years of Mahesh bashing Amitabh in the press.
