Muqaddar ka Sikandar

It was on TV, and I just caught the later half of the movie… I’ve seen it a couple of times before already, but it’s such a good movie – Amitabh’s acting never seizes to amaze me.

As Sikandar, Amitabh kinda represents that heart-broken man which has been a part of many of our lives at one point or another. His monologues reveal his feelings so perfectly well and the audience is yet again reminded of why he has been a super-star personality throughout the late 70s’ and the 80s’. This is yet another movie which carries the aura of his invincibility – then… and even now… unsurpassed! :k:

The movie also stars Vinod Khanna, Rakhi, Rekha and AMjad Khan, and has amazing songs like O Sathi Re… Tere Bina bhi Kya Jeena, Salaam-e-Ishq, Rote Hue Aate heiN Subb etc.

Along with Falak (starring Jackie Shroff), this is an all-time favorite movie in the “Dard” genre. :k:

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

One of my all-time favourites. Gotta love the Amitabh classics.

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

in the dard genre i like jackie's gardish more than muqaddar ka sikander but muqaddar ka sikander is also an excellent movie

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

homer… Gardish is in fact an excellent movie… if you haven’t seen Falak, then I highly recommend it - its a little hard to find, but if you liked Gardish, then you’ll love this one.

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

Ok i liked both the movies.
from gardish amrish poori changed its image from bad guy to a character artist.
on the same lines, angaar is another nice movie. imdb has given it 9.7/10.

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

aah yes… those… and you know what… these aren’t even half as bad as Ajooba, Insaniyat or Lal Badshah :smiley:

but oh well… we’ll let him go in view of his other generally good and several great movies.

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

hahah exactly…

waise Ajooba wasnt that bad… that dialogue of Amrish Puri… “Shaitaan Zindabaad” :rotfl:

Insaniyat was yuckkiest… meine apni memory se delete kar diya tha aapne phir yaad dila diya smack

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

^ hehe sowwie Daagh... these are the movies I wish he never did. I only started to watch a couple of them and then stopped it right away.

With other flops at least there still was some substance, but with Insaniyat and Lal Bashaha heh... dunn wanna go there myself.

Re: Muqaddar ka Sikandar

i really liked Ajooba :blush: ive seen it soo many times…
