Every great battle wins love. The Great Battle is one of those movies you want to watch and watch. An excellent cast, a great plot and its beautiful embodiment are its three components.
It is not the two warring clans that two lovers belong to. She is the daughter of a criminal authority, he is an ordinary village guy, raised by his brother. But their love forces both his brother and his girlfriend’s family to start the Great Battle. But in any battle, love wins, no matter what it is - the love of two brothers, the unrequited love of a thug for a thief or the love of a father for his children.
Govinda (my beloved Govinda!) is so organic and convincing in the role of a loving younger brother, an ardent and determined lover defending his love that it is impossible to take your eyes off his hero. Beautiful in both dance and fight scenes, he is the jewel of this film. His embrace with his brother is such that it seems as if they meet each time after a long separation.
Vinod Khanna, a loving older brother who indulged his Moonna in everything, and fearlessly avenged him after the news of his death, made an indelible impression with his play.
Madhuri wonderfully played a thief who fell in love with a stranger and was ready for anything for him. Her beautiful dance in the rain is remembered for a long time.
Shakti Kapoor, as usual, plays a negative role. However, the love for the thief, albeit unrequited, makes him look at the world differently and see the whole ugly picture of his occupation. The scene of his last journey to the mosque is so strong that it is impossible to watch it without tears.
Gulshan Grover. “So it was in the Punjab. So there will be no Punjab. The role is small, but also memorable. And it is also very nice when Gulshan does not have a negative character.
Songs like Aa Bahon Mein Aa! It is a kind of magic when you listen with bated breath, and it seems that with each note your soul is carried away further and further.
For me, this film is one of Govinda’s best early films. It is necessary to watch and review many, many times.
