Dalaal review :
Worst of Prakash Mehra
Worst of Mithun Chakraborty
Worst of Ayesha Jhulka.
Cheap and third grade movie.
A C grade movie from Prakash Mehra banner was least expected but Dalaal was exactly that. Mithunda, as Ayesha Jhulka's pimp who is unaware of her real profession, was simply unconvincing and distasteful. The film was titillating, vulgar and obscene in every aspect. The dialogues like "Chamdi bech ke damdi kamate hai" were pure cringe. Songs like 'Chadh gaya upar re' reeked of double entendre. As if that wasn't enough, they added Ayesha's nude shots using a body double. Following her then beau Armaan Kohli's advice, Jhulka took Mehra to court over it. Incidentally, Mehra won the case and it dented Jhulka's image irreversibly as producers mistook her stand as arrogance. Inspite being her biggest fan, Dalaal is the only Ayesha movie which I just can't stand!!
