Vijay review :
Yash Chopra remade his own blockbuster Trishul (1978) with Rishi as Shashi Kapoor and Anil Kapoor as Amitabh Bachchan. Anupam Kher played Sanjeev Kumars role. Rajesh Khanna was totally wasted. So was Hema Malini in a grey shaded role which didnt suit her at all. Newbie Sonam was presented in two piece bikini and gave some bold kissing scenes with Rishi Kapoor.
Overall, Vijay belongs to Yashraj's downward phase in mid 80s. It flopped at the box office but Yash Chopra bounced back with super hit Chandni in 1989 and then didnt look back. Released at the Metro cinema, Mumbai.
