Beta [1992]

Beta
Reviewed 08 June 2007

I had bought the DVD some time back and haven't seen the film since I was very young [sometime in the 90s, probably when it first released]. I remembered it being quite a good movie but I wanted to watch it again to remember it.

It sucked. It sucked bigtime!!

I don't know why it's called Beta... Anil Kapoor's character was unnecessarily given too much importance... His character was annoying and sucked, and his performance didn't help. Anil has delivered such good performances but this is definitely not one of them.

Madhuri Dixit stole the show. She made the otherwise terrible and disgusting film worth watching. She wasn't amazing or anything, in fact she acted quite poor in some scenes... but overall her performance was quite good. I wish her character was the lead one and not Anil's... 'Coz her character was a lot more interesting and Madhuri did a pretty decent job. She looked very pretty too!!

So, yeah... it's a sucky film and I'm disappointed Madhuri, and maybe one or two of the songs, are the only reason(s) to watch the movie.
