Review of Avinash

Avinash (1986)
8/10
Mithunda loses his memory
15 December 2021
A dealer of stolen goods and a singer, Avinash finds his life turned upside down when goons break into his house, assault his fiancée, Dr. Sapna, and his brother, Sumit; kill his mother; abduct and then torture him in order to compel him to tell them about the whereabouts of a missing video film. He attempts to fight back, is shot at sea, and is believed to have perished. He does survive, but has lost his memory. Soon he will not only be chased by goons, but a woman, Nisha, will attempt to seduce him; another woman, Alka, will claim to be his wife; Rajan, a Police Inspector, will befriend him; and a terrorist, Pratap, and his goons are determined to get the video-film at any and all cost.

Gripping action-thriller with shades of the Bourne identity in regards to our hero -mithunda- losing his memory and getting swept out into the sea and loads of bad guys led by Prem Chopra on his trail. It's well-paced, has intrigue, twist and turns and suspenseful enough to keep you tuned. It's a solid entertainer with some action sequences, plus Poonam Dhillon, Parveen Babi and Bindiya Godswami sizzle on the screen.
