Zamane Se Kya Darna

In terms of story Zamane Se Kya Darna (ZSKD) is a rehash of Reena Roy's Sanam Teri Kasam, that released 12 years earlier.

While Anand Milind's music is not of the same level as RD Burman's track in Sanam...most of the songs are still hummable, Aankhon Se Hum Baatein and Maine Tujhe in particular.

The paralysis of ideation and thought in Bollywood is blatantly visible when you see Guddi Maruti playing Raveena's friend, the actress having played the Reena's friend in Sanam Teri Kasam a dozen years earlier.

That said, what works for ZSKD is the lead pair.

Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon make for a classy, extremely good looking and perfectly well-matched couple - a rarity in Bollywood films. This is one pair that deserved more films than they eventually appeared in.

It is their crackling chemistry that makes ZSKD an interesting watch.

Dutt was the No.1 star at the time this film released, in fact at the peak of his career, and his star power ensured this film made good money. Though not a huge hit it made a lot more than the amount invested in making it, and was not a flop as many are quick to label a film that is not a big hit.
