Welcome

After more than a decade since its release, I am writing this review after seeing it for like the 3rd time. The movie has been the source of several memes in the last couple of years including the iconic "Alu lelo0O, kande lelo0O", "mirakal, mirakal" among few others. There is hardly any 10 min stretch in the movie that won't make you laugh or admire the creativity and sarcasm of the writer/director. The characters of Udai, Majnu and Ghungroo will always stay in our funny memories. Akshay does a decent role, and Katrina, with her beauty, pulls off another one with the Khiladi. It is one perfect movie to watch with college friends, or family members. All the songs are still pleasant to hear, make your feet move, all while keeping the humor level decently high. If you haven't watched it, you're missing some original comedy.

Still it is more enjoyable than any of nowadays comedy movies.

Simply love it.

With the success of No Entry, the stakes are raised for Anees Bazmee. And does he live up to it? Here is your opportunity to be the judge.

Story:: There is none.

Music:: Disappoints big time.

Starcast:: It would be a gross understatement to say that they have been wasted.

Characterisation:: There is no such word in the dictionary.

Comedy:: The comic portions of No Entry were a laugh-riot but in welcome it falters big time.

Sublime message:: Criticising the people on the other side of the fence, leaves a bad taste.

Verdict:: Don't be fooled by the reviews, "Mindless comedy" and "Leave your brains at home" are the camouflaging phrases used by the critics.

PS:: Akshay's recent success streak will give this movie a home-run though.

What a time 2007 was!

& right we are lacking for a good comedy movie...

& yes Majnu bhai's painting is still famous in market.

Most of the people would have definitely watched this movie, some who haven't, and have come here to check the reviews must be the youngest generation teens and if not, the Englishmen interested in watching the Bollywood movies. My one statement to them - WATCH IT! Yayayaya, it's a little messy, but really well made by the director. My hats off to him, Anees Bazmee for really being able to create such an epic comedy movie. All the characters, oh my god, they are so strong, perfect and so solid and humorous. I've never seen so loving Villains ever before, yes they are villains but you would love them. Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Akshay Kumar, Paresh Sir, and allllll others of them, ten ti twelve more have done a tremendous job , nothing better could have ever been expected. I love love love this movie more than any. This is my favorite comedy movie in the history of Bollywood.
