Warning: Spoilers
Totally melodramatic, loud to the hilt, Amitabh looking weird in different colored contact lenses, and trying to copy Marlon Brando of Godfather, this movie badly flopped at the box.

People did not like this new avatar of Amitabh, and missed his usual tone of voice. the repetition of Vijay Deenanath Chavan, is too boring. Though the cast included some good actors, they were wasted in emoting unrealistic, loud scenes, and delivering flowery dialogs. the only believable and endearing performance, surprisingly, comes from Mithun Chakravarty, as a coconut vendor, who is actually a double graduate ! He looks sprightly, and adds humor, as well as some realistic stuff, in this otherwise illogical fare. this movie is produced by simply keeping the gallery in mind, but that too, didn't work out ! too much focus on Amitabh's presence, has marred the film's appeal. Poor editing, a weak plot line, and Amitabh's patent dialog delivery , as if he is enjoying it, has resulted in people turning their back to this multi-star extravaganza . Avoidable .
