Indra Kumar is known for weird sense of cinema, he gave blockbusters like DIL, BETA but if you see his comedy in his films there are really stupid surprisingly nowdays he is doing only comedy. His films in 1990s had comedy in first half and emotional in second half. The film is a remake of Kannada film, Mallammana Pavada (1969), starring Rajkumar, and B. Saroja Devi. It was remade to Telugu as Abbaigaru, and again to Kannada as Annayya. The entire track of Aruna torturing her husband and keeping Anil's character illiterate may sound hard to believe but is well handled, Anil's romance with Madhuri is well handled though melodramatic a bit The entire Madhuri vs Aruna track is well handled, but there are some stupid comedy scenes involving Anupam Kher, Bharti Achrekar Also some scenes are hard to digest like the entire track where Adi Irani and his wife Kunika are made to work in the field The end is even more melodramatic, Anil after having poison suddenly gets up and bashes the goons
Direction is decent Music is good, Dhak Dhak was the biggest hit though which is a copy of Ilayaraja's super hit song "Abbanee teeyani debba" of the 1990 Telugu movie Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari starring Sridevi and Chiranjeevi which in 1991 was dubbed into Hindi as Aadmi Aur Apsara. The song "Koyal Se Teri Boli" is a copy of the Tamil song "Kondai Seval Koovum Neram" from the movie Enga Chinna Rasa by K. Bhagyaraj, with a similar storyline.
Anil Kapoor handles his role perfectly, Madhuri Dixit is superb in her role, Aruna Irani is exceptional despite being few years older to Anil, Adi Irani(brother of Aruna in real life) is as usual,Kunika is as usual, Laxmikant Berde does have some funny moments, Anupam Kher and Bharti Achrekar irritate, while Akash khurana is good as usual, Satyen Kapoo and rest are decent
