Diwali release of 1991: Banjaran! Sridevi's surprise hit

Nov 4 2021, today many are celebrating Diwali around the world. Here's a throwback to 1991 when Sridevi's film with Rishi Kapoor, Banjaran, hit the screens. 

Hindsight now reveals that the movie opened well, dipped after a critical thrashing (its a deeply flawed and poorly edited movie) but rose in popularity again. Currently, the songs of Banjaran featuring Sridevi have over 80 million views. There's a huge cult following for the film for its songs and dances.
