Mohra Completes 30 Years

It has been thirty years since Mohra was first released. The 1994 action thriller was a massive success for various reasons, such as the debut collaboration of Paresh Rawal, Suniel Shetty, and Akshay Kumar in this film, which later resulted in several hit movies and the captivating chemistry between Akshay and Raveena Tandon. It would be fascinating to revisit the film after such a long time, now that it has been available for three decades. Mohra is currently accessible for streaming on Prime Video and ZEE5.

Made as an action thriller, Mohra has good twists, fights, and emotional scenes that enthrall audiences. Mr. Jindal is a reputed man in the society, and he makes Vishal, a murder convict, get released from prison on humanitarian grounds. After that, Jindal enlists him to eliminate people who commit crimes. Vishal successfully removes almost all of his targets until Amar, a righteous police officer, steps in. When Vishal and Amar uncover the identity of Jindal, a thrilling game starts between them. Raza Murad, Gulshan Grover, Sadashiv Amrapurkar, and Kulbhushan Kharbanda are also featured in supporting roles in the film directed by Rajiv Rai.

Divya Bharti, the original female lead, passed away shortly after filming commenced, leading the film producers to cast Raveena Tandon in her place. Mohra movie’s climax was rumored to have drawn inspiration from Death Wish 4: The Crackdown, a film from 1987. The climax of the movie was modeled after the 1992 Hong Kong film Hard Boiled. Mohra’s success at the box office was remarkable, outperforming all but one Indian film that year: Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!. The film’s soundtrack also achieved great success in the same year. Raveena Tandon gained fame as “the Mast Mast Girl” after performing in the famous song Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast went viral. Pakistani artist Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s rendition of the hit Qawwali, Dam Mast Qalandar Mast Mast Mast, inspired the song. Following Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!, this film’s soundtrack became the second best-selling Bollywood album of 1994, selling over eight million copies.
