Review of Baseraa

Baseraa (1981)
9/10
Original story, superb performances!!
29 December 2009
I have always ranked Basera as one of the finest stories ever filmed in Hindi cinema. The film tells the story of a happy family suddenly faced with tragedy and how they try to cope with an altered situation.

Rakhee is brilliant in her role, if this was a Hollywood film, she would have certainly won an Oscar!! The scene where she yearns for her husbands affection upon her return is particularly touching, and the final scenes between Rakhee and Poonam Dhillon are simply fantastic and guaranteed to make you cry (by virtue of Rakhee's powerful performance)

Rekha has also played the character extremely well. Overall a great movie which has been lovingly directed, super performances topped with RD's fine music. Unfortunately a highly under-rated movie!
