Raja Hindustani Hindi Film
Posted on -
This movie is about a conniving uncle, wicked stepmother, misunderstandings through deception and love across the social class divide... and a proud headstrong lover who is his own worst enemy.
Here we have all the ingredients of Bollywood romance and melodrama. You are carried by the romance and your emotions manipulated by the deceptions. In short this is the sort of story Bollywood loves and does well. It is part fairy tale and part morality play.
There is also the fight scene (Aamir seems to have done few movies without one!)
Aamir Khan is a handsome youth in this movie (it was in the late 90s). He is not just a pretty face and a scene stealer but a fine actor. The movie is almost worth watching just for him.
Karisma Kapoor is also very good, as are the supports - though wicked uncle and stepmother are very much characatures. The chemistry between the lovers is good too.
There is some good music of the more sweeping haunting variety rather than Bhangra upbeat. Also a few good dance sequences.
This movie is a little dated in the film quality etc but as much of it is spent in beautiful mountain scenery in traditional clothes that are timeless it has stood the test of time well- and still seems to be loved by many.
If you love romance or classic Bollywood this is definitely recommended.
