Ghulami

This movie is grand, an epic, that attempted the social inequalities Indian class and caste system. Set apart from 80's mindless movies, it connects, bring forth emotions, loaded with a couple of timeless songs and a super delivery.

One of the finest Dharmendra movies from 80s, coupled with a inspiring music, that will keep you enchanted.

The film marked the debut of one the greatest film directors in Bollywood, JP Dutta.

It deals with the inequality of land ceilings in rural India. It focuses on a young boy who grows up to rebel against the cruel land owners, who have been ripping of poor farmers. Dharmendra delivers his greatest performance, aided fabulous performances by the supporting cast.

Technically, the movie is great like all JP Dutta films. The score is haunting. The dialogues by OP Dutta is brilliant. The screenplay is as detailed as you can get.

A movie that should not be missed by any movie fan.

With the presence of actors like Naseer, Smita Patil, Omshiv Puri, and 1980s, looks like an art movie. It is a tale beautifully told by debut director Dutta. Dialogues are amazing. Combination of stalwarts like Laxmikant Pyarelal and Gulzar to make songs has made the songs immortal. Not just the songs, even the background music of Laxmikant Pyarelal is evidence enough why the duo is best after Shankar Jaikishan. Although all actors have given phenomenal performances but Dharmendra is at his best. The way he has delivered the OP Dutta dialogues puts him ahead of even Naseer. Mithun is a very good addition to the main story line. Most outstanding is Dharmendra. There is something in the movie for everybody...plut it is a clean movie that you can see with your whole extended family.

Any rating less than 10 will mean under assessment of Dharmendra, Smita Patil, Lata Mangeshkar, JP Dutta, Laxmikant Pyarelal, Gulzar and beautiful photography of massive Landscapes of Beautiful desert of Rajasthan.

WHAT STELLAR SUBJECT,MUSIC AND PERFORMANCES BY SUPER CAST. PLEASE WATCH IT, IF YOU HAVEN'T YET. FOR ME IT IS IMPORTANT AND MOST UNDERRATED CLASSICS!!!

After many years Dharmendra acted in a top class movie without his usual tom foolery. I have watched this movie 6-7 times and I don't tire watching it. The dialogues and emotions are heart rendering. The acting by each and every of the legendary cast were spot on. The social commentary of prejudice, injustice and discrimination that exists in our society is very bold and succinct. The songs are melodious with the evergreen "Zilhal-e-miskin" coming to memory. "Koi shaque nahin" what Mithun could do with a good script and great direction. "Thank you" to Kulbushan for one of his finest roles in his career. Smita Patel was very elegant both in looks and acting. Reena Roy and Anita Raaj were superb in their respective roles. To top it off the final scene was both poignant and symbolically perfect. Amitabh's narration in the end summed up the movie nicely. It's nearly 40 years since this movie was released but it is still relevant. I wished there were more movies of this caliber today.
