After hit films like Dil, Beta...Indra Kumar is back with Rishtey with his favourite actor, Anil Kapoor. His direction is excellent!He is back agin with a STRONG film.Baba Azmi`s cinematography specially in action scenes is superb.Allan Amin`s action is mind_blowing!Sanjeev Darshan`s music is not so good. It is below average but the film itself has given no importance to the songs and I think no one is going to notice the songs, because the film itself is so good.
Ganesh Acharya`s choreography is good. And now the performances!Anil Kapoor has lived the role of a loving father.No actor could have done this role with so much enthusiasm.Karisma Kapoor`s role is similar to her role in Shakti_the power but even then again she is superb.Shilpa Shetty has given one of her best and memorable performance and she`s too funny and she looks gorgeous.Master Jibraan Khan has given an excellent performance and he does not overacts as most child artistes do.Amresh Puri has done what he has been doing since many years but even then he is impressive.Alok Nath has done nothing special.Deepshikha is good in her role. On the whole, Rishtey is an excellent movie!It is a film, not to be missed!
