Pukar has been in the making for many years now, but finally it is complete. The film's director is famous as we all know, and seems to have a winner on his hands. Madhuri has a superb role in this film. You will see Madhuri in a completely different light in this film, with her playing a negative character. Exactly what she does is unclear, but from what people are saying it is a mindblowing performance. The story is captured in an army-backdrop. Apparently there is a love triangle between Anil, Madhuri, and Namrata Shirodkar, where I believe Namrata is married to Anil. The story involves Indian-Pakistani Relations, where Anil Kapoor plays an Army Major. Also Anil Kapoor has stated that the credit for this film belongs to Madhuri Dixit, who will have a very good role in this film. This film should be Madhuri's BEST FILM in '99!
STATUS:
The shooting for the film is now complete. The film has been delayed many times, and no one has a final release date for the film. By the looks of things, the film might release early next year. No one really knows what is going on with this film...
It has been noted that one of the songs in the film, Shing-a-ling-la-la took 23 days to shoot in Hyderabad. Also this song itself costed about Rs. 50 lacks. Wow!!
