Vishal (Sunil Shetty), a murder convict, is released on compassionate grounds before his sentence is up. Once out of prison, he's enlisted by media tycoon Jindal (Nasseruddin Shah) to eliminate drug traffickers who are destroying the very fabric of the society.

The big bosses of the drug mafia are assassinated one after the other in rapid succession. Amar (Akshay Kumar), an honest and committed policeman in charge of the case is convinced that Vishal is responsible for bumping them off. Will Amar succeed in nailing Vishal? Will Vishal's mission succeed? Is everything as simple as it appears on the surface?

Mohra was a movie with a pretty good plot, given that it was made in the 90s, when the quality of Hindi movies was terrible. Viewed today, the treatment would appear too unrealistic and the characters caricature like. There is a wholly superfluous romantic angle which is frankly inconsequential in a thriller. But given the quality of Hindi movies made in the 1990s and the formulaic treatment typical in that era, Mohra was an excellent movie.

The songs in the movie were incredibly popular in the 90s and it must be said that they have aged well. The 'tu cheez badi hai' song was one of the biggest chart busters of that era. Akshay Kumar's costume in that song was a rage in the mid 90s.

As for the acting, the leads (Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty and Raveena Tandon) were just about adequate. Its the supporting cast that really stands out in this movie. Nasseruddin Shah, Paresh Rawal and Sadashiv Amrapurkar were magnificent despite their limited role and the limited scope that the script afforded them- I have given 2 stars only for their performance (especially Paresh Rawal).

At this distance in time, Mohra is best viewed as a product of its time. If you haven't watched too many Hindi movies from the 90s, keep your expectation low- you won't be disappointed.

I found this movie decent.Script is good,Soundtrack is good,Acting is good,Decent story,Direction is decent.It opens when a tough guy is send to jail.Roma goes to that place.Then a man attacks her.Vishal saves her.Vishal says that his wife's sister to a college party.She got raped in taht party.And died.Then one night those guys come back.His wife Priya goes to the kitchen kills herself in front of those guys(In the movie they taught she was murdered).Vishal kills them and lands in jail.Roma wants to do justice.She comes across Amar and it begins.The climax is bad.Vishal dies.Akshays is the star of the movie his performance is amazing.His dialog delivery,Facial expressions etc are amazing.Raveena was great.Sunils performance is wonderfully knit.Nasserudin was great in his role.Fighting scenes are awesome.Lady which played Rita was annoying and very unrealistic and did not looked pretty.All the others acted good.The characters have gray shades(Negative ones) the others light shades."Na Kajre""Tip tip barsa pani" and "Tu Cheez badi hai mast mast"are absolutely melodious tracks.Anyway Decent.Watch it once Rating-6/10

....is the main reason I saw the movie, and recently too.....nostalgic for that super-hit song which I haven't heard in a while. The movie overrall was "eh". I don't know Hindi, but I can tell the acting wasn't all there based on other Hindi movies I have watched. The songs were amazing albeit having nothing to do with the movie itself. The plot was decent but could have been strengthened with better acting especially from the big Bollywood names that were in this movie. Anyway, classic because of the songs, not much the movie itself.

Rajiv Rai after the super success of TRIDEV and dismissal VISHWATMA which did average business returned with another full on action film mixed with a thriller MOHRA

The film starts off well, Suneil's intro is well done but the romance angle between Akshay and Raveena is ordinary The game plan of Naseer is well planned and handled and the film keeps you on the edge though the excess of stunts and music does take away the impact

The revelation in the second half is brilliant but Suneil's escape is far fetched The finale is predictable though good

Direction by Rajiv Rai is decent Music is good, TU CHEES is best

Amongst actors Akshay Kumar sleepwalks in his cop role like he did those days with his bad dialogue delivery Suneil Shetty is better but he makes you cringe when he goes high pitched yet a good performance Their action combat is excellent though Naseer steals the show in one of his best performances Raveena is okay though she does annoy at times Paresh is funny Raza Murad annoys, Gulshan Grover is okay the rest are okay

This movie is considered to be one of the greatest Hindi action movies so far. I actually have watched it several times, it has many twists and a lot of action and believe me, you will be at the edge of your seat all through the movie.

The story is about Vishal Agnihotri (Sunil Shetty) who is sentenced to life imprisonment for killing four college students who raped and killed his wife and were responsible for the death of his sister-in-law. Roma Sing (Raveena Tandon) is a journalist who meets Vishal in jail where he comes to her rescue. Roma learns of Vishal's predicament and decides to help him by taking his case to Mr. Jindal (Naseeruddin Shah), a blind media tycoon. Mr. Jindal through his connections and media forces a special jury to review Vishal's case which later pardons Vishal.

Vishal is indebted to Mr. Jindal and undertakes a risky mission which is killing all the drug dealers around who were responsible for the death of Mr. Jindal's wife. Vishal finds inspector Amar Saxena (Akshay Kumar), Roma's boyfriend, at the crossroads of his every mission. Ironically, Amar is also on the same mission as Vishal, but less successful as Amar has to work within the framework of law.

At one point Mr. Jindal, Inspector Amr, Roma and Vishal find each other at crossroads realizing that each is being used as mere pawns by someone. But who is the manipulator and who is the conspirator? Watch Mohra to see how the game of life is played? The story, the songs, the soundtrack and the acting, especially Naseeruddin Shah and Sunil Shetty, are all great.

Recommended for every Hindi movie fans. 8.5 out of 10.

This movie I think is one of the greatest successes of Rajiv Rai. The plot is full of twists and turns and the name of the movie pretty much lets you know a few surprises are expected. The acting is good and the blockbuster song "Tu cheez badi hai mast mast" is just amazing. Rajiv Rai has done his best to keep the audience guessing and believe me you will be on the edge of your seats. It's a great movie that I would recommend to any Hindi movie lover.

So, having seen Rajiv Rai's Tridev, which I enjoyed, and heard a lot of positive feedback about this film, I thought I'd give it a try. Mohra is nothing more than an ordinary 90s masala flick, which is cheesy, overblown and quite lacking in substance. The action itself, which of course has to be its main strength, is for the most part extremely exaggerated and typically unrealistic. The story and writing are poor, presenting the age-old formula of the good vs. the evil, where the evil is more of a monster and the law is dumb and totally corrupted. The film, however, is not without its moments, and it has some very nice songs, including the popular "Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast". The acting is very average, with Akshay Kumar and Sunil Shetty doing their usual routine of the times, Raveena Tandon looking absolutely gorgeous and charming, and only Naseeruddhin Shah rising above the script with a fun, tongue-in-cheek performance and never taking it all too seriously. The ending was most dramatic and predictable, and overall this is a movie with little good to offer. Had I seen it as a child, it might have held some nostalgic value for me, and children may still enjoy it today as it really is a kind of a fairy-tale, but otherwise, it just doesn't hold up well today at all.

Mohra is a very well structured commercial film.It keeps the viewer entertained right from the very beginning.

Directed by Rajiv Rai under the banner of Trimurti films,has Naseeruddin Shah(Jindal),Aksay Kumar(Amar Saxena),Sunil Shetty(Vishal), Raveena Tandon(Roma),Gulshan Grover(Tyson) and Raza Murad(Jibran)as the leading stars.

Naseeruddin Shah (Jindal) is into media business and Raveena Tandon(Roma) works for him.Sunil Shetty(Vishal)is in jail as he murdered people responsible for death of his wife and sister in law.Naseeruddin Shah (Jindal) and Raveena Tandon(Roma) help him get out of jail,as he was forced to take law it his own hands,since he did not get justice. After his release Naseeruddin Shah (Jindal) directs Sunil Shetty(Vishal) to eliminate drug dealers Gulshan Grover(Tyson) and Raza Murad(Jibran) for the betterment of society.Aksay Kumar(Amar Saxena),plays the cop who suspects Sunil Shetty(Vishal) for the killings of gang members belonging to Gulshan Grover(Tyson) and Raza Murad(Jibran).Slowly Sunil Shetty(Vishal) realizes he is being used as a pawn or as a mere instrument,and it is from here the story becomes more interesting.

Overall a very entertaining and a well scripted movie,with some great music by Viju Shah.A must watch!

One of the most entertaining action thrillers in the history of bollywood. Watch it for some great bollywood masala stuff. Both Akshey and Sunil are fabulous in their roles. I don't think so any one would have done the role of Jindal better than Naseeruddin Shah. Some foot tapping music and gripping background score. The story never loses its grip, something different in bollywood. Rightly declared a great blockbuster, has a long lasting impression on you. Paresh Rawal, Raveena tandon are good in their roles. Razaa Muraad and Gulshan Grover fit in their shoes perfectly. The action scenes are quite great. Watch it again and again and again and again and again.I myself have watched it around 25 times.

Action thriller suspense music story direction and amazing performance ( Tu cheez Badi hai mast mast no one can forget ravena tondons number they cannot make a mohra again it wnt be the same love this movie I dnt know how many times I saw this movie I never get tired of this movie all the dialogues and acting is crazy it looks wow LOve it 😍 plz watch if you want a good masala movie with great acting and direction

awesome movie by rajiv mehra. great direction in whole film industry. i can't believe it taking such a long star cast could make such a good movie.The film is especially remembered for its music which became chartbusters in that year. The popularity of the song "Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast", which was picturised on Raveena Tandon led to her being nicknamed "The mast mast girl".(English: Pawn) is a 1994 Indian action thriller film directed by Rajiv Rai starring Sunil Shetty, Naseeruddin Shah, Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon in the lead roles while Paresh Rawal, Gulshan Grover, Raza Murad and Sadashiv Amrapurkar and Kulbhushan Kharbanda played supporting roles. The film was released on 1 July 1994. The film went on to become the second highest grossing Indian film of 1994 and earned a Blockbuster status.[1][2] The film got 9 Filmfare nominations in 1995. It was the first time where the trio of Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty and Paresh Rawal worked together.action from drama comedy songs everything in this picture. there is no shortage in this picture.it is a complete entertainment package.maybe now got to see a picture like this again.as my opinion i give to 10out of 10.

each and every actor in this movie give their best but or me as i concern Sunil Shetty was the best as every person wants to become like him as an actor in that movie Akshey Kumar is also good raveena tandon looks charming Naseerudin Shah as always been one of the most versatile actor Paresh Rawal was hilarious Rajiv Rai gives his best action movie and this movie always be remembered and at the same time the songs were excellent NA KAJRE KI DHAR was the best for me i will recommend this movie to every those people who fond of action movies i will definitely give 9 out of 10 because this movie u can repeat so many times and i sure u never get bored

Journalist Roma who one day decides to take a tour around her father's jail, was being molested by some of the inmates in there. Another inmate called Vishaul comes to her rescue. In this way she befriends Vishaul and decided to delay deeper into his story. She soon found out that he was given a death sentence by the court because of four homicides. Then she along with her boss Mr. Jindal decides to install some justice into the case because they taught that there were no other way out for Vishaul than breaking the law. Soon Vishaul is released from jail and he decides to work for Jindal and follows a path which will only lead him to the grave yard.

Story,action,music,song everything just spot on. Worth watching

Watched only for Tu cheez Badi Hai mast mast but found it as a good movie. Also first movie of iconic Akshay Kumar - Sunil Shetty - Paresh Rawal trio. For Raveena I have to say, " Tu cheez badi hai mast mast " Nasiruddin Shah at his best.

A perfect Bollywood movie. Akshay Kumar is show stealer. Nasiruddin shah did a great job. It has great musics too. A must Watch film.

One of the best action movie from 90s. Akshay Kumar & Sunil Shetty nailed it.

1994 Highest grossing this film Popular song "tip tip barsa pani" Every song blockbuster Action ,drama, suspense

I love this movie for only one reason Raveena Tandon I watched it a year ago and I was not that interested until Akshay Kumar turned up and before you know it that song appeared Tu Cheez Bari Hai Mast Mast. I don't know many other Rajiv Rai movies but I hope he hasn't quit the industry I'd love to see another flick with him as director. I think Raveena Tandon can dance well also I have seen her in more serious roles but I wish she would do something like this again and get back with her on screen partner Akshay in real life they made a great couple. I would give this movie 7 OUT OF 10

Individually Death Wish,Death wish 4, and Hard Boiled are Excellent movies, mix them together add some masala and you get a Excellent Bollywood movie, I loved Mohra, because I watched it before Death Wish, Death Wish 4 and Hard Boiled
