Riyasat – Rajesh Khanna’s last film

The Emperor Bids Goodbye

  


Riyasat

Always adored in a romantic avatar, Kakaji (Rajesh Khanna) will now be seen in the role of a Don for the first and last time.

India’s first Superstar Rajesh Khanna’s Riyasat is about a powerful Don ‘Sahab’ who is worshipped by the people.

Unfortunately, Kakaji passed away while shooting for the film.

As a mark of respect for the superstar of yesteryears, it would be foolish to critically review the film. But here is the storyline…

Riyasat is a story about the much loved Sahab played by the late Rajesh Khanna. Sahab has ruledfor many years and has established his kingdom.

People look up to him for everything. He has truly been the Godfather for the people of the city.

But then, few people enter the city with malicious intent which Sahab is aware of.

Obviously, Sahab protects his kingdom from evil eyes and thus starts a war which changes Saheb’s life forever. Will Sahab protect his kingdom?

Will Sahab winover the evils and emerge as a winner?

The movie is directed by Ashok Tyagi and Riyasat also features Gauri Kulkarni, Aryan Vaid, Aryeman Ramsay and Raza Murad.

Producers Vijay Sirohi and Diwaker Singhal shared, “The biggest tribute to Kakaji would be ensuring that Riyasat reaches to every fan of his. Kakaji’s character Sahab is inspired by The Godfather. But we’ll see Sahab in a true Rajesh Khanna style.”

This films is released on the occasion of Kakaji’s (Rajesh Khanna’s) second death anniversary.
