Karz review : The Subhash Ghai directed Karz enjoys a cult status today with even a remake in the recent past. Karz is an okay film, quite watchable and enjoyable, but basically nothing particularly good. The show was stolen by the awesome Simi Garewal, and she played her elegant vicious Kamini with style.

The vibrant Tina Munim played his love interest, and her overly childish attitude really got on my nerves. Kapoor did his part well, but at some points he overdid it. Ravi was killed by his wife Kamini and eventually reborn as Monty, probably in order to take revenge. Rishi Kapoor is Monty, a top singer who was named Ravi at his previous birth. The entire reincarnation track could have been better done. Songs like "Dard-E-Dil", "Om Shanti Om" as well as the instrumental theme of the movie are beautiful. Despite the flaws, Karz does have entertainment value, mainly due to the fantastic music and some successfully shot moments of suspense. Some of the dialogues and the proceedings are overdone and some sequences are amateurishly done. The film spans for a period of something like three decades (Monty's age was specified as almost 30 in the film), but the characters do not even age appropriately during this time. The story is very interesting, but the script lets it down. The execution is uneven and at places the film does not flow well. Karz is one of the most famous Subhash Ghai films, but according to me it is nowhere among his best. Subhash Ghai earlier made some very good films KARZ is his best, though VIDHAATA too was a good film KARZ is a remake of REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD(1975) and also has songs lifted from Italian songs.etc The story may sound nothing special today but was terrific for 80's and the direction, screenplay, writing was topnotch The initial reels on Rishi are good but the best part is when he realises he is Ravi Verma is scenes with Simi are splendid, first when he reaches her house wild and then their love story and the volatile climax The film just keeps you on the tenterhooks throughout and the last speech by Rishi is awesome Direction is very good by Subhash Ghai, sadly none of his today's films hold a similar impact Music is very good, EK HASEENA THI is the best and DARD E DIL OM SHANTI OM are too fab Amongst actors Rishi is the life of the film and he excels, his expressions especially when he realises he is Ravi Verma, his breakdowns are simply magical His last speech is his best It's a shame that Himesh tried to play the role in the remake and he faltered Simi too is excellent in her part WHile the heroine too is good Amongst rest Pran is excellent Prem Nath is okay, Macmohan is good and rest are all good
