  • By the 1980s, Dev Saheb had lost his cinematic enchantment. His film style had become absolutely stale by the 1990s. But one thing that makes Dev Saheb's films special is the unconventional subject matter of those films. Be it a film made on corruption in cricket (Awwal Number) or the story of a Professer Father who taking revenge from his daughter's rapist (Hum Naujawan). Dev Saheb was making a film every time with a new subject. Sau Crore, inspired on a true incident, was likewise an offbeat film. The film is based on the life of Indian badminton player Syed Modi, who was shot dead on 28 July 1988 as he was exited the K. D. Singh Babu Stadium, Lucknow after a practice session. The subject matter of the film was very controversial. But Dev Saheb had his own style. Despite the fact that it is based on a genuine story, the film lacks soul.

    Raj and Kamlesh are in love. When Raj and Kamlesh's love story reaches the level of marriage, it devolves into conflicts, infidelity, and suspicion. Somnath, a politician, is head over heels in love with Kamlesh. Raj dislikes the fact that Somnath is ever spotted around Kamlesh. One day Raj is murdered on the road in broad daylight. Everyone is suspicious of Somnath, because his love for Kamlesh is well known. Minister Mohan Bhai summons CBI Director Kumar Prashant to ascertain the truth. When Kumar takes on the case, things start to get interesting. Kumar gradually gets closer to the truth, but suddenly things take a dramatic turn.

    Will Kumar be successful in uncovering the truth? Did Somnath kill Raj to get Kamlesh or has he become the victim of some big conspiracy? You'll have to watch the movie to find out the answers to all of these questions.

    The film's weak plot and shoddy direction make it appear extremely mediocre while having a compelling story. When it came to acting, only Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher stood out. Dev Saheb is okay. Ananya Mukherjee, Raman, and Fatima were let down by their shoddy performance. The movie's soundtrack was likewise dull and uninteresting.
  • You've got to hand it to the man, even if you are not such a big Dev fan as i am. Dev Anand is one the great three of yore, Dillip Kumar, Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand. Dilip gave nothing back to the industry, Raj Kapoor gave some films but more important gave us Randhir Kapoor, Shashi kapoor, Shammi kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Karan Kapoor, Kunal Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor and above all Rishi Kapoor. But Dev Anand gave us his films. Every film again and again had a topical issue. And nowadays paople say that a film is ahead of its time, Dev Anands movies are at least a decade ahead of its time. He even made a cricketfilm Awwal Number with... Aamir Khan! This movie stars himself and Nasserudin Shah and one of his forgettable finds Fatima Sheikh. Worth seeing also for the songs by Bappi lahiri sung by Amit Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar amongst others
