pretty people. nice songs. banger film.
kis kambakht ko padi hai barbaadi ki
turns to the sentimental found family narrative at the last minute which is not at all interesting when you've spent two hours seeing angsty, tormented amitabh trying to destroy his business tycoon father who ghosted his mother.
I always shied away from these kinds of films but there is a certain allure that they had for the audience of the 70s-80s that cannot be denied. So I am watching them after I watched the Salim-Javed documentary.
There is a certain gravitas about the performers here that Hindi cinema has not quite retained. They have a certain class, they pronounce and deliver dialogues with grace. Their body fits into the different characters they play- Sanjeev Kumar has done an impeccable job fitting into an old person's body.
Yes there is melodrama but there is fun in that too, it does not become boring. The zooms are too many but all done at the exact moment of realisation.. in…
"If you think when you ask me to marry you... I'll say yes immediately... then you are absolutely right."
salim-javed knew exactly what they meant when they wrote that!!! you're not a true gorgeous rich playboy character unless you're embodied by THE shashi kapoor 😍😍😍
it’s sad men will never understand what it’s like to watch an amitabh bachchan and shashi kapoor film from a females perspective
Yash Chopra’s action drama in which a son (Amitabh Bachchan) born out of wedlock returns to avenge his abandoned mother. With Shashi Kapoor and Waheeda Rehman. In Hindi with English subtitles.
Amitabh Bachchan gives a very good performance in his role as Vijay, who comes to Delhi in order to get revenge on his father’s business by aiming to completely destroy it.
He suits the role well, and there is solid support to be had from Sanjeev Kumar is his role as R.K. Gupta, the head of the company where Vijay works.
Making a special appearance is Waheeda Rehman as Shanti, Vijay’s mother, while Raakhee is fine in her part as Geeta and Shashi Kapoor is decent in his role…
Neither the best nor the worst example of Big B's "I'm Sad Because I'm an Orphan, But I'm Also a Casanova Supercop, and Shashi Kapoor's There, Too, He's Cool, I Guess" phase.
great way to clean out eyes 😭 that one fucking song by Sahir literally DESTROYS me. Makes a grown man bawl…
"Yeh duniya badi sangdil hai, yeh kamzor ko jeenay nahi deti..."
From the moment Amitabh Bachchan appears on the screen, floods of bravado and machismo are unleashed upon us. Dripping with understated swagger, our angsty & brooding protagonist gives us glimpses into his life of pain and hatred through his eyes that are more expressive than most actors can ever hope to be.
1978 was the year in which Bachchan gave us multiple iconic films like Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Don and of course Trishul (plus his 3 other releases in the same year). A feat he repeated several times through the 70's and early 80's. This man proves at every opportunity that he deserves every bit of the demi god status he has attained over the decades.
Pure Class,Heroic and Influential,OFCOURSE .
Bollywood Mass film has never been better than this. The dialogues which seem stereotypical was somethung everyone wished they would say in their lives,the dramatic scenes which may seem cliché was something everyone wished they would feel at the time,regardless of the emotion(happy or sad),the action and fight sequences which may seem amateur or even funny was everything for the men who thought themselves as an angry young man.
But, at the end of the day,everyone knew they are not Vijay or Shekhar and that's okay because along with the fight and romances,there is grief,pain and suffering in characters like Vijay and films like Trishul made us understand we are good having a life without these and many of us haven't even realized it's films like Trishul that taught us these until now and that's exactly what made Bollywood different from others.
The way Amitabh Bacchan & Sanjeev Kapoor single-handedly carried this entire movie on their back...
Honestly don't even know what to rate this as it truly only makes sense to brown people 😩
