Mahaan is a 1983 Bollywood film, directed by S Ramanathan and starring Ashok Kumar, Waheeda Rehman, Amitabh Bachchan, Parveen Babi, and Zeenat Aman. The movie is a masala entertainer with all elements of an action-packed drama, romance, comedy, and music. The story is about three friends, Vikram (Amitabh Bachchan), Ravi (Parveen Babi), and Vijay (Waheeda Rehman), who work together as secret agents. Vikram is an undercover cop who acts as an arms dealer to expose the smugglers, Ravi is a journalist who uncovers the truth behind the corrupt politicians, and Vijay is a lawyer who fights against injustice. All three come together to fight against the dangerous criminal Mr Billimoria (Ashok Kumar), who is behind all illegal operations in the country.

The movie begins with a scene where Vikram is caught by the police, and the story moves back to show how he became an undercover cop. He infiltrates Mr Billimoria's gang to expose their illegal activities, and the rest of the story is about how he, along with Ravi and Vijay brings down the criminal empire of Mr Billimoria.

The movie has some intense action sequences, which were quite impressive for the time. Amitabh Bachchan's performance as Vikram is noteworthy, and he has delivered his signature style dialogues with ease. Ashok Kumar, as the villain, is charismatic and suits the role perfectly.

The romantic subplot between Vikram and Ravi adds a light-hearted touch to the otherwise serious theme of the movie. The chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi is quite good, and their love story adds a layer of depth to the character of Vikram.

The music of the movie is quite popular even today, especially the song 'Pyaar Mein Dil Pe Maar De Goli,' which became a chartbuster upon release. The song was picturized on Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi and is a classic example of evergreen Hindi film music.

The movie also has a comedic side track, with the character of Johnny Lever providing comic relief through his hilarious antics. The story is multi-dimensional, with various subplots interwoven beautifully to culminate in an action-packed climax.

Overall, Mahaan is a well-made action-drama that has something for everyone. It boasts of talented actors who have given impressive performances in their respective roles. The movie has a good mix of action, drama, romance, comedy, and music that makes for an enjoyable watch. It is a classic example of a quintessential Bollywood film, complete with all the elements that were popular during the '80s era.

In conclusion, Mahaan is a must-watch for all Amitabh Bachchan fans and those who enjoy masala entertainers. It is a movie that stands the test of time and continues to be relevant even today.
