Advantages: Amitabh Bachan, Hema malini, Salmaan khan Disadvantages: may not appeal to younger viewers
...it a try. I found Baghban to be a good family film; however I wouldn’t recommend it for younger viewers as they may find it boring. I think it’s more suitable for the age of young adults and up. The main role is that of Amitabh Bachan, his wife’s role is played by Hema Malani and together really bring the love of their characters relationship alive. You can really imagine what it would be like to know them and the deep love that they share for each ... ...coming home and have his tea ready for him. The affection they share for each other is portrayed excellently throughout this film and is breathtaking. They both posses excellent acting skills and have been in many films together before, and this film just proves even as they get older their acting skills are just getting better and better each time.
They both have 4 children of which 3 are married. His children are all adults and are all living ...

...about it all the time.. Baghban is one of them. Parents do expect if not a lot but something good from their children and there is no harm in that of course..

Advantages: A GOOD LESSON TO THE CHILDREN OF TODAY Disadvantages: PARENTS SHOULD NOT THINK OF THEIR FUTURE WHILE FULFILLING THEIR DUTY
Nice acting by Amitabh and Hemamalini.The story says that the children of today do not care of their parents despite the devotion of their parents by fulfilling their duty of growing their children. But while doing their duty one should not think of reaping fruits of it in future.The children should grow and find their own way of living . Though they should think about their parents but parents should not always expect everything.In the movie, though ...
