Fareb (1996)
8/10
Great Thriller!!
31 July 2016
Another well crafted, suspenseful thriller from Vikram Bhatt!! Once again, I am aware that it is the Hindi remake of the 1992 Hollywood film, "Unlawful Entry", but since I did not watch that original movie, I had the pleasure of enjoying this worthwhile watch. Faraaz Khan plays the beleaguered doctor wonderfully well, and Suman Ranganathan is great and sensual throughout as well. The real show stealer here, however, is the dashing, debonaire yet evil character of Milind Gunaji, who fits his role like a glove! He is one of the most talented, raw, and uninhibited individuals in the Hindi film industry as far as acting ability and persona is concerned. He adds a fiery intensity and psychopathic malevolence to the whole drama throughout, and it is on his shoulders alone that the movie rides to heights of thrills, cinematic brilliance and white knuckle tension. I would highly recommend this one without any reservations. and oh! who could forget the timeless classic song " Yeh teri aankhen jhuki jhuki" that was on the lips of every teenager and youth growing up in the 90s! Wonderful affair.
