Stylish and a superhit

Warning: Spoilers
Feroz Khan after Dharmatma returned as a director with Qurbani(1980) The film which had him paired opposite Vinod Khanna(earlier offered to Amitabh) and Zeenat. The film is known for it's stylish look and hit songs It's a typical friendship film, we have Feroz play a con artist, while Vinod Khanna befriends him, in twists and turns, both fall for Zeenat. There's also a hilarious Interpol Cop played by Amjad Khan, There's Shakti Kapoor and Aruna Irani as villains, Amrish Puri however is introduced as a villain but then he is relegated to the background and suddenly killed. The film has a scene when Feroz Khan smashes Amrish Puri's mercedes, at a time when Indians had not seen one, he imported 2 for that scene. In typical style of FK, in most of his films the other actor died, be it Vinod Khanna in this film and later in Dayavan, Anil in Jaanbaaz or Sanju in Yalgaar. Direction by Feroz Khan is decent Music was a big hit, Laila O Laila is still remembered, while the other songs too became famous like the title song, Aap Jaisa Koi by Biddu was a big hit

Feroz Khan repeats his usual style, Zeenat Aman who also did Dostana in the same year with a similar role does well, Vinod Khanna is good in his role Amjad Khan is funny in his role, Kader Khan is decent, Shakti Kapoor and Aruna Irani are good in their negative roles, Amrish Puri has a brief role and is okay rest are okay
