Cool pot-boiler from Bollywood. Rakhi has an unusually important role with wide range and depth in both characters. This has to be her best movie ever. The other review describes the movie well but completely missed the soundtrack.
Sharmilee is one of the best ever Hindi music soundtracks. Each and every song is incredible. These are not catchy simple songs but classical songs rooted in Hindustani ragas. No wonder then that serious contenders in singing contests will often pick tunes from the soundtrack of Sharmilee.
Without the songs, I would rate this movie a 7 but with such a soundtrack, this is a must watch.
