An entertaining film though a commercial failure.

Bombay 405 Miles review :

Shatrughan Sinha and Vinod Khanna team up to play two tadipaar chors - Kishen and Kanhaiyya - who bump in to a baby girl, a rich heiress abondoned by her evil uncle Amjad Khan. Zeenat Aman is also a chorni who flirts with both Kishen and Kanhaiyya for her own hidden agenda.

Bombay 405 Miles is a complete masala entertainer which was director Brij Sadanah's fortè. From Victoria No 203 (1972) to Chori Mera Kaam (1975), all his successful films were about hidden wealth and bunch of thieves out to get it. Logic be damned, they were all fun to watch and Bombay 405.. was no different.

Zeenat Aman looked absolutely gorgeous and her flirtatious moments with Vinod and Shatru are the films highlight. Pran Saahab had an interesting role of a blackmailer who just dials any random number from telephone directory and warns the receiver of the call that he knows their "raaz". Haha! Amjad Khan was super duper as the main villain characterised by his playing with toy marbles.

Overall, Bombay 405 Miles is an entertaining movie though it didnt do well commercially.

Regards, Sumeet Nadkarni.

Entertaining Masala film

I saw this film yesterday on youtube that somebody posted with the name mumbai 405 miles. I expected this to be a movie i will watch 15 minutes of and then skip it as their are 100s of movies to watch. This film got interesting after 10 minutes in fact. Amjad Khan is at his best again and Bollywood miss him as the classy villain. A classic actor that portrays a bad guy role very entertainingly. The film stars Vinod Khanna whom i was not that much a fan of but he did do some good acting in this film. Shutrungh Sinha is a actor i always hated apart from Amitabh movies he co starred in and Khudgarz. After watching this film, i have to be honest and say he can do comedy and is not that bad of a actor when he wants to be. Zeenat Aman is a talented actress and is very sexy and beautiful in this film. This film is like a comedy love triangle between the three stars, with a lot of humour, action and some good family melodrama added in. The movie is about the two thief buddies who find a little girl whom they consider will bring them fortune as she is a rich mans daughter and later bond with. This is a good film

The movie serves its purpose well i.e. Entertainment.. entertainment entertainment.. It's like a VR rollercoaster ride ..which will not let you bore even for a second.. The star cast is power packed ..be it the good guys or the bad guys... It has action , eye catching sequences and comedy.

So if you are someone looking for a quick break from the monotony..then Bombay 405 miles is the best remedy. All in all, the movie and characters are well woven and definitely it is a worth watch.

Postive -

Vinod Khanna And Shatrughan Sinha Combo Comedy Beautiful Zeenat Aman

Negative -

Length Action Scenes Plotholes.

Hilarious dialogues, good action...not boring at all!

You won't be using your brains much but you will laugh enough and get entertained by each scene. The acting of all the actors lift up this movie and the random dialogues make you laugh. If you don't find anything to watch while browsing and just looking for random laughs, go for it.
