Yes K, Pukar was a good movie and as Anjali, Madhuri had done a good jolb.

But the film suffered the same problem as others - a weak ending. Wonder why the ending always plagues most of our good movies? 😕



The story was good, but den endings r always dicey in such movies. 😆

I am actually surprised to see objections on Ghagra song..
To set the record straight' madhuri did not played a ProstitutE in it..
She was introduced as .Agray ki mashhuur Mughaniya-

And as pure urdu been my firstvlanguage, i want to share that .mughaniya- word means SingeR and its far away from being a pros.. mughaniya is a good positive word used to use for chaste classic singers in old times..
Also if a much older rekha can do a sexy item number 'paheli zindgani' then ghagra was only a funfilled comictype song.. not some vulgar item number at all... so, yeah.

Thanks Tanya for the clarification of the term 'mughaniya' - I didn't know about it, and it's always nice to learn something new.

I find the Ghagra song okay - could have been better. But as you rightly mentioned, it was a fun-filled number.

As for 'Kaisi paheli zindagani' number by Rekha, thats a vintage clubhouse jazz deal - which Rekha did effectively seal 😆

she was actually introduced as agra ki azeem fankaara. here are the lyrics: Sahebaan, kadardaan, meharbaan
Dil thaam ke baithiye kyun ki
Ab aapke saamne tashreef la rahi hain
Agra ki azeem fankaara
Mallika-e-Husn, noor-e-nazar
Mohatarma Mohini

but she was a prostitute in it, the song took place in a brothel. and the dialogue inbetween her and ranbir where he says something about package rate. but theres nothing wrong in this. she's an actress. theres nothing wrong with playing a prostitiute. some people just have narrow minds.

Even if Madhuri played a prostitute in Ghagra song, her moves and antiqs were more dignified than those half-naked recent Bollywood actresses be it in Sheila or Munni or other 1000+ songs 👎🏼 Anyways, thanks for the topic, read some good stuffs in here abt Madz and Sri after long time <3..

I like Madhuri a lot, but her acting has never been her greatest strength to me. That does not mean she is not a good actress or I don't enjoy her acting. But for me, Madhuri means dancing. I am one who usually forwards the songs, in Madhuri movies I watch the songs more.
Sridevi is Madhuri's direct competition in acting. I have grown up watching Sridevi in three languages. Though her best movies to me are in the South, Sridevi has always been the better actress to me and definitely based on body of work.

BTW, you are an excellent resource for research 😆
Like your username a lot - rhymes with restaurant in Park Street, Calcutta - Trincas

Has been in existence for long now - almost makes one feel nostalgic
