Despite the poor characterization, Rajesh Khanna is terrible.
#Rajesh khanna movie song dog skin#
Such retarded mentality is expected of lower class citizens but when an educated, well-cultured and sophisticated member of society acts like a humping dog, based on skin colour, that's going a little too far especially when this is presented as something normal and okay. Watch his reaction in the scene where he watches Tulsi dance in the rain and the tan colour pour down her body revealing the real skin colour.
But, what is most frustrating is when Rajesh Khanna's character, who is supposed to be this well educated agent, all of a sudden can't keep it in his pants when he discovers that Tulsi is actually light skinned. It is understandable that such low-class goons won't even bother noticing a dark skinned woman (considering the cultural history where people are taught that light skin equals beauty and dark skin equals ugly). Sridevi's character has to tan her skin in order to appear dark to protect herself from goons that are raping the young light-skinned women of the neighbourhood. Ravi Tandon's direction is quite poor but this may be due to the terrible script he has got to work with. Actually, what 'Nazrana' really has going for it is Smita Patil and Sridevi. There is nothing wrong with the way the two perform. If only there was a good director and writer who had cast them together. However, it is a pity that this is wasted in a bad movie. It is quite rare when two powerhouse performers, like Sridevi and Smita Patil who have such a different approach to acting, share screen in one film.
