(translates as "sacrificed")
1991
4/5 stars
Prithvi (Sunil Dutt) and Suraj (Kabir Bedi) are best friends until a tragedy comes between them, turning Prithvi into a dacoit, while Suraj remains on the side of the law as a police officer. Some years later, their children (Aakash, played by Salman Khan, and Chanda, played by Ayesha Jhulka) meet and fall in love. When their romance is discovered by their fathers, they are forcibly separated, and must find a way to be united.
This sometimes melodramatic romantic drama has a predictable plot, and yet it is enjoyable despite that. There is some solidly good acting, especially from the supporting cast. The music, both incidental and songs, is truly beautiful, while the costumes are gorgeous.
All in all, while not an outstanding movie, Kurbaan is entertaining to watch and a delight to hear.
