MAIN SOLAH BARAS KI Cast: Dev Anand, introducing Sabrina, Jas Arora & Neeru Direction: Dev Anand Rating: * |
India's well known film-maker and actor Dev Anand (Dev Anand) goes to London to attend the golden jubilee ceremony of his film life. There, most of the Indians are crazy about him and surround him everywhere for the autographs. There he meets a 16-year-old Madhu (Sabrina), who is an Indian born. Lonely in life after her parents' separation, Madhu is an ardent fan of Dev Anand and wants to join films. Madhu celebrates her birthday with Dev Anand along with radio journalist Sunil (Jas Arora). Dev Anand decides to make a film titled Main Solah Baras Ki with Madhu and Sunil in the lead pair. Madhu gets infatuated towards her director who is much older to her. She even announces her plan to marry Dev Anand. On the side, Sunil tries to woo Madhu. The concept of the end in this film is very nice where Dev Anand tells Madhu that now she owes the public and shows her the way to stardom. Dev Anand is too old to play this role, where his pairing with Sabrina just does not match. New comer Sabrina resembles Tina Munim. But unfortunately she cannot act. Jas Arora is once again (after Dushman) is in an insignificant role. His performance is nothing to talk about. Rajesh Roshan's music is good but more credit goes to Amit Khanna's lyrics. The main drawbacks of the film are poor screenplay and poor direction. |
