Sabse Bada Khiladi by Umesh Mehra


Category: Hindi

This is the third in the "Khiladi" series and is definitely one of the finer Khiladi movies in which Akshay Kumar has acted in. If it wasn't for Akshay Kumar's stunts the wafer thin plot would have collapsed under the weight of it's stupidity.

But Akshay Kumar, his presence and timing backed up with dialogues like, "Yeh Kotha hain, Kasai thana nahi", propel this film into the entertaining cateogry. There's a plot somewhere about murder, revenge and familial ties but I'll leave that for you to discover. The film also stars Mamta Kulkarni, Gulshan Grover as Kekda and a few other regulars including Mohinish Behl who in my opinion re-invented the spoilt brat for Indian cinema, in a brilliant way.

Recomendation level: 2/5 for non-Akshay fans & 5/5 for Akshan Kumar (yes, an original) fans. This movie is really available anywhere but you should get it if you want some fights, funny songs and funnier dialogues.
