Kishen Kanhaiya is a 1990 Bollywood masala film directed by Rakesh Roshan, known for his successful films like Khoon Bhari Maang and Krrish series. The film stars Vikas Anand, Ranjeet Bedi, and Bindu Desai in pivotal roles. The film is a remake of the Telugu film Govindudu Andarivadele. The film revolves around the theme of the importance of family, traditions, and values.

The film begins with Kishen Kanhaiya (played by Anil Kapoor) studying in London, where he meets a girl named Radha (played by Madhuri Dixit), whom he falls in love with. Kishen is a kind-hearted person who believes in helping people. He receives a letter from his father, who is ill, asking him to return to India immediately. Kishen returns to India and discovers that his father has passed away. Kishen meets his estranged grandfather, who had disowned his father years ago. His grandfather, Amarnath (played by Amrish Puri), is a wealthy businessman who is deeply rooted in traditions and values. His family has a history of conflicts between them, but Kishen wants to reconcile with his grandfather and bring peace back into the family.

Kishen meets his cousin, Bhanu (played by Shilpa Shirodkar), who warns him not to interfere in the family's business and traditions. However, Kishen is not one to back down and starts working with his grandfather's company. He also takes up the responsibility of reforming the village, which has been suffering from unemployment and corruption. Kishen gains immense popularity in the village, which irks Bhanu's father, who wants to become the village head. Bhanu's father tries to create discord between Kishen and his grandfather, but Kishen's goodness prevails, and he wins the hearts of his family members.

Radha visits India to be with Kishen, but her father opposes their marriage as he does not approve of Kishen's background. Kishen's grandfather too is against their marriage, as he feels his granddaughter-in-law should belong to a family with similar financial and social status. Kishen, on the other hand, believes that love is all that matters and decides to elope with Radha. However, before the marriage can happen, Kishen's grandfather has a change of heart and decides to accept Radha as his granddaughter-in-law. The film ends with a happy reunion of the family, and Kishen and Radha's wedding.

The film boasts of several hit songs, composed by Rajesh Roshan, including "O Beeti Na Bitai Raina," "Mere Humsafar," and "Tu Mujhe Qabool." The film also features beautiful cinematography, capturing the essence of rural India. The film's strength lies in its message of the importance of family and values. The film is a perfect blend of romance, comedy, and drama, making it an entertaining watch for all ages.

In conclusion, Kishen Kanhaiya is a heartwarming family entertainer with an important message. The film has stood the test of time and is still remembered as a classic Bollywood film of the 90s. The film's performances, music, and direction are exceptional and continue to entertain audiences even today.
