Review of Darr

Darr (1993)
5/10
shadow of the queen bee
27 February 2008
this new attempt of Yash Chopra of making villains out of heroes is satisfactory.Both heroes of the movie, Shah Rukh and Sunny Deol benefited tremendously from this film that will decide their career in the future. Sunny will make more movies where he'll play heroes with intense action like in Jo Bhole So Nihaal while Shah Rukh will use a lot of stuttering in his next films. but it is the choice of the heroine that raises the question. Darr was made after the debacle of Yash's Lamhe. it it obvious that the failure of the movie is blamed upon solely on the shoulders reigning queen Sridevi,as when you are on top everyone wants you down.Instead of repeating the queen,Yash has used Juhi Chawla, who despite of being a talented actress, cannot match even a hair strand with the queen bee Sridevi.Even if Sridevi not being in the movie, the shadow of the queen still hangs around in Yash's mind as he clothes Juhi and makes her dance like Sridevi in a white sari, which Juhi fails miserably.
