Lambu Dada review :

Producer Amarlal P. Chhabria announced Lambu Dada in 1978 with comedian Mehmood as director and Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha in lead roles. The film got shelved in sometime but Chhabria revived the project again a decade later but the director as well as cast were completely changed.

Kabir Bedi became Lambu Dada and the ever graceful Madhavi was his heroine. The plot was basically about an emotional bonding between a criminal and a small child and how she reforms him..

Kabir- Madhavi looked odd as a pair and even the screenplay didn't explore their love angle to the optimum. On the contrary, the scenes between the kiddo and the hero were quite endearing. Despite this, Lambu Dada fell flat at the box office lasting just three weeks in Mumbai's Shalimar Cinema. Flop show!!

Surprised, this movie has no comments, no ratings....

Well, I had watched this movie years ago, when I was a kid, probably 8 or 9 years old (now 20), watched it on DoorDarshan...

Well, don't remember much of the story line now, but I remember, Kabir Bedi is Lambu Dada. A man who saves kids from bad people. Every time kids are in trouble he comes up and the song.... "Lambu Dada... Tun tun tun.. Lambu Dada" starts in the background. I had enjoyed it that time when I had watched it. it was fun then.

Kabir Bedi arrives in a little society when kids and people are troubled by bad guys, a little out of proportion with the way Kabir Bedi handles the situation, but yes it's fun...

And Lambu means a person with good height and Dada means a man like a don. But it's just a title... Kabir Bedi has a normal height (about 6") in the movie and that's it..

Fun for kidz, don't remember now if I can recommend this movie for adults, but that time it was fun for kidz, not sure if today's hi-tech kid will like it or not! my rating:--- 7/10
