It's been 28 years since the release of the epic Khuda Gawah. A film worth watching on the big-screen - the magic of its grand scale, cinematography is mostly lost on shoddy VHS Tapes! Waiting for a blue-ray version of it or on Digital Platforms.
The movie is a singular argument and affirmation that movies were meant to be seen on the big screen. Everything about it is so over-the-top fabulous.
At the peak of their power, fame and prowess, its pure joy to watch the last Emperor and Empress of Bollywood together in a film of this size and magnitude; the formidable Sridevi and Amitabh Bachchan. And then, in a polar opposite reel, to see them together again twenty years later in English Vinglish, was wonderful. Last of the truly greats of Indian cinema...
