Aakhir Kyon? (1985)
8/10
Complelling family fare
20 May 2014
Aakhir Kyon is a neat family film by director Om Prakash. The Rajesh Khanna-Om Prakash combo has always given good films & this is no exception. It has got the versatile Smita Patil in the title role with tina munium & rakesh roshan.

The story is one of women upliftment which was a rarity in those days. Smita patil has given a superlative performance. She is the live wire of the film. She is ably supported by rakesh & tina.

The real surprise here is Kaka. This man sure has guts. Time & again he has done heroine centric films & yet held his own. Here, he makes his appearance only after the interval (which is unusual). He puts in a breezy performance. Till the interval, it is a smita patil show but after that, she has to share the honors with the superstar.

The rajesh smita combo has always done in films like Anokha Rishta & Nazrana & here it is no different.

Rajesh khanna had always a great script sense & this film is proof for that.

The director Om prakash makes the film entertaining yet at the same time, it gives a powerful message.

This is a neat family entertainer with no double meaning dialogues, raunchy songs or violence.

Definitely one of the best films of the superstar, though he does not have to exert much in terms of acting.
