        Rajesh Khanna at his dramatic best

        Rajesh Khanna plays the lead role in the movie.The movie is a tear jerker and a dramatic movie. The movie has Govinda, a popular star then, having more footage than Rajesh Khanna but he cannot compete with the mastery of Rajesh Khanna who has performed the role in his true style which reminds us of the old Rajesh Khanna Super Star. His certain scenes are memorable and the Director could have given a lot more footage to his role. The movie was a hit but could have had much better music and the production values could have been better. It is a one of the last movies of Rajesh Khanna which was a commercial success and with his fans coming out of the movie satisfied by the performance of the great superstar of the 1970s and 1980s who then decided to get into politics and forgot about films. A must see.

        Amazing family drama

        I watched this movie multiple times in the past but watched this movie on 12th March 2022 at Amazon Prime Video with english subtitles. Tthe whole cast acted amazingly in this movie. The dialogues were very well written. What touched me is the background score! The entire background score was in Raag Shivaranjani. It was just so touching ! Ae Mere Dost Laut Ke Aaja was in this raag and it was melodiously sung by Mohd Aziz.

        I don't mind watching this movie another million times as the background score and the story was superb!

        Usual Melodrama

        Swarg was director David Dhawan's first hit. It was reported that initially Rajesh Khanna was hesitant to wear a wig for the role but later agreed.

        It is the usual tale of a family getting divided & getting united by the servant. It is surprising that such a wealthy businessman becomes bankrupt when his factory is consigned to flames. Did he not insure the firm? However, logic in commercial cinema is usually not considered.

        The film is a clean family entertainer with tear jerking scenes which appealed to the family audiences, particularly ladies. Madhavi & Juhi Chawla look beautiful & have done well.

        Rajesh Khanna gives a matured performance which is only expected from an actor of his stature. But the scene stealer is Givinda who has given a memorable performance be it in comedy timing, dancing or melodrama.

        Rajesh Khanna goes practically missing in the 2nd half, surfacing only towards the climax.

        The songs are good, not great & other production values are OK.

        The film was a hit mainly because it drew in the family audiences to the theatres.

        Great remake of Sabih Jee

        Swarg is very good movie and is a remake of a Pakistani movie named Sahib Jee. The actors have done exceptional job especially Rajesh Khanna and Govinda. Dialogues are fantastic and will be memorable for long long time, though they are heavily inspired and very close to the original. The only thing I dislike about the movie(most Bollywood movies actually) was the annoying and unnecessary songs
