To me, this movie is perfection.

A Masterpiece!

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This was my first ever Hindi movie I had seen during my teenage years Since as a proud Tamil family we refrained from learning Hindi ,so I was not familiar with the language spoken in the film, but readers you don't need language or full understanding of all dialogs here as long as you start seeing the emotions and acting of it SRK was the first Hindi actor to make a strong impression in my Mind with a wonderful performance, Kajol and Shilpa were pretty and also had meaty roles.. The villain was diabolical and The Mother of our hero hapless but great acting by allPro's : + "+" Shahrukh Khan "+" Interesting story "+" Good screen play and Not bad "=" directionCON's : "-" IT'S in Hindi and a typical commercial movie"-" Ending was sad but overall movie Could have been betterI recommend this even for people like me who don't understand Hindi and had a bad fortune of not having English Subtitles

What can i say about his movie apart from what i mentioned above, can i add awesome. This is the best movie directed by the duo Abbas Mustan who have made great thrillers like Khiladi and Race. I first saw Shah Rukh Khan act in Deewana but didn't care too much. I next saw Shah Rukh Khan in Raju ban gaya gentlemen and once again didn't care too much. I then saw baazigar and boy did this film impress me or what. This is the movie that made Shah Rukh Khan a instant superstar, in my opinion gave a dynamic powerhouse performance. He deserved the Best actor Filmfare award for this as it was a tough nominations list that year. Kajol delivers a great performance as well as Shilpa Shetty. This is borrowed from Hollywood movie Kiss before dying, but let me tell you Baazigar makes Kiss before Dying look like garbage. If you are a Shah Rukh Khan fan and you have not seen his best film,the go watch it now.

An excellent movie.A must watch.One of the best from Bollywood.The story is excellent.It tells about Ajay who lives with his widowed mother.he falls in love with the Chopra sisters Seema and Priya.One day murders Seema by throwing her out of a building.,The reason he does it to take revenge on Madan Chopra.Years back Madan was employed in his fathers company.Madan took control over it.Ajay and his family were thrown.One day his father and baby sister died.Years later he is back for revenge.The movie is plain excellent.This movie can only be the best debut for Srk( Deewana(1992) his first flick was a crap but not a mega crap).His performance is magnificent.Kajol does well.Shilpa is okay.Dalip did good.Rakhee supported well.The dialogs are great.Cinematography is excellent.The direction is excellent.Johnny Lever was good.The music is wonderful.A great movie.Go and watch it. Rating-9/10

'Baazigar' is probably the first commercial Hindi film that centres around the anti-hero. It 'loosely' rips off 'A Kiss Before Dying'. It's not a scene by scene copy and the director duo did smartly Indianize it (unfortunately a lot of it is too Bollywood e.g. the 'dishum dishum' fight sequences). To an extent, as a film, it is better than 'A Kiss Before Dying' as the twists are changed to appeal to the Indian audience. The songs are pleasant but some of the tunes are ripped off too. The whole comedy track featuring Johnny Lever and co deserve to be fast-forwarded. What mainly makes 'Baazigar' more watchable than it's 'original' source is its performances. The film belongs to Shahrukh Khan who does his first anti-hero act and blows the audience away with a strong balanced performance of a multi-layered character. Kajol is lovably hyper in the beginning but she shows her character's gradual maturity with grace. Shilpa Shetty gives a stunning debut act. Rakhee plays the typical distressed mother again. Johnny Lever is irritating as always. The rest of the cast do not impress much either. Technically the film could have used a lot of improvement but one should keep in mind that this is a film of the early 1990s. The end sequence is a disappointment and it sadly brings the film down by a notch but on the whole, 'Baazigar' is enjoyable to watch. In spite of the plentiful plot holes, there are some fine moments like the scenes where Ajay manipulates Seema, Priya discovering the truth about her sister, Priya confronting Ajay...Even though one knows what happens in the end, there's something about the film that makes you sit through it.
