5.0 out of 5 stars Listen to the music!!! 21 Feb 2009
Format:DVD
I don't think that I am the right person to write a review. My English is very bad. But you asked me , and I give an answer:
Vidhu Vinod Chopra is a very, very good filmmaker. The three actors,Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff are a splendid triumvirat. All wants the best, and all makes the worst. Fate plays with, no escape. It must not be everytime, but sometimes I am happy, when I can say to me: That's nice, East meets West on a gentle way. Since now I thougt always,there must be Eastpeople and Westpeople.
The film Parinda electricised me, because I heared suddenly western classic music.One melody is for the dangerous parts and an other for the bright moments,when the two lovebirds have there meetings. This symbiotic situation in this film, the indian story, together with the western classic music, blow me away. That's not only beautiful, no, it is devine. I love classic music, but I have no music brain. When the film was over, I read all names . I wanted to know, who are the composers? I know the music very well, but I didn't find the names of the composers.Now I started to find out the names of this masterpieces. I have a great collection of classic CDs, and now I started the search. Three melodies are in Parinda. Finaly I found the dark one. It is the obscure part of the Finlandia from Jan Sibelius. A little bit later I found the bright one. It is the second movement out of the Symphony No. 9 "from the New World" from Antonin Dvorak. The third melody, the small one-uff-I am still searching. Nothing is written in the last part. Everybody who loves classic music should look and listen this film. Parinda gives a lot of emotional pictures with the absolutly right music for all the special scenes.For me it is the perfect symbiosis and lift up the film to a masterpiece.
Who ever read my lines, I must say, it made me a very great pleasure. But I don't think I was useful. It's up to you to cancel my writings, but---- I have written!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless Filam (Film)... 6 Jan 2005
Format:DVD
'Parinda' won five prestigious awards at the Filmfare Awards (Indian equivalent of the Oscars) in 1990 (Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay and Best Editor). The awards proving it's quality performances and flawless story.

'Parinda' is one of the best Indian films of all-time and a foreign classic. It boasts a great cast including, Nana Patekar (3x Filmfare Award winner), Jackie Shroff (3x Filmfare Award winner), Anil Kapoor (5x Filmfare Award winner), the 'ever-green': Madhuri Dixit (5x Filmfare Award winner) and a hard-hitting, gritty story from Vidhu Vinod Chopra (2x Filmfare Award winner).

The film is a gangster epic following the lives of children in poverty reverting to crime as men, without realisisng the consequences, highlighting the struggle to get out of that lifestyle. It is a true depiction of life in the 'Indian Underworld' and it is beautifully expressed through the direction and action. The story is heart-renching and performances are pragmatic.

The film is of such greatness, as all the ingredients not only make it a great Bollywood film, but a great film for all...A must buy for any film fan.
