Almost 2 decade ago this movie was a super hit. I remember watching this movie on video during 1980s almost every year from when it was released. Sharaabi is a must have for any of amitabh fans. He lands another perfect role, a sheer performance from the big b. Side by side om prakash in one in a memorable role as a gurdian of amitabh. Jaya Prada shows off her dancing skills. One of her early roles. Ranjeet a typical villain and does what he is best at. Pran as a careless father who acts quite naturaly for his role.
Prakash Mehra’s Classic. The duo of him and amitabh is a living tale of success in bollywood to this date.
RD burman the music composer comes out with solid tracks and remind you of 1984, exactly.
THe only thing about amitabh today is that he has lost his charisma and perfomance that he once use to have. I think if you want watch just him and nobody else than this is the movie. Sharaabi.
