Yaarana

Kishan and Bishan are childhood friends. Kishan, a poor boy, stays in a village. Bishan goes to a city becomes captain of a ship. After many years when Bishan returns he discovers golden voice of his friend Kishan. He brings him to city with him and on all odds he plans a stage show for him. To train Kishan in urban manners he send him to a school run by Komal. After the show Kishan becomes very popular. However, some goons highjack Bishan's ship (with many childern aboard) Bishen tries to save them but then he is made to run away for his life. (A small role nicely payed by Kader Khan as Bishan's driver - who sacrifices his life for Bishan). Bishan is presumed dead, though actually he looses his mental balance after seeing the children tortured). How Kishan now pays back to Bishans family is rest of the story.

As Bishan, Amzad Khan perhaps played his one of most sincere roles in this movie. Amitabh is polished, and a village baffoon in city his comedy is superb. Tanuja is her small role makes an impact.

Rajesh Roshan has given good music and the song "Choo kar mere man ko kiya tune kya ishaara...", and this song is apt fot this movie too.

Definitely one of my favourite movies amjad khan and bachan really shine it is one the most memorable films of amjad khan along with sholay and qurbani. He was one my most favourite actors next to kader khan. They will always be missed indeed.

Must watch if you value friendship and love 80's music

Amitabh proved himself 2 in 1, what I literally mean by 2 in 1 is that, in this movie Amitabh role was comedy as well as the dominant action man, he without hesitating performed his roles very well, this must of been very challenging to do 2 roles in the same movie, there was a contrast, I would simply give this movie 10 out o 10, there were loads of good points about the film, the storyline was brilliant, the actors played there role very well, All I would say this movie will be one of my best movies of all times, I can assure you if you buy this DVD, or record it from the television like I did on last Saturday on max television you will at the end of this film, reach for the rewind button. This movie is one of those which will stick into your heads forever, and you cannot get over it. This movie delivers what its audience needs. Genre, Action, Comedy, Musical, Drama, and Family. all these mixture made this movie into a super hit movie in the year 1981. This was a big blockbuster super hit movie. I would say watch it, you'll love it.

Known more for the novelty of Amitabh as a pop star rather than for the overall quality of the movie. Amjad Khan had ballooned due to the after effects of his Goa accident and his unrestrained dietary choices. This made him looked awkward in many scenes, though he did win an award for the role. Here onwards Amjad Khan's graph as a menacing villain went down and he had to switch to lesser comedic roles. The comedy scenes in the film looked hilarious back in the days but now seems ridiculous and forced. The rest of the cast were ok. Movie is passable but does not stand out in memory.
