De Dana Dan

Ignore the other ratings! I get that some other Hindi comedy movies are so mindless and stupid they are not funny, but this movie is smart, exciting, and hilarious without being overly stupid. I have watched this over 5 times and it does not get old. Akshay Kumar is one of the funniest and most talented actors, and this movie includes many other famous comedy actors. A must see!!

With the team joins hands back again, the expectations are nothing short of yet another "Hera Pheri". The team needed a desperate hit to redeem themselves from the recent spate of flops in everybody's kitty. Needless to say the pressure surmounts and result is "De Dana Dan".

De Dana Dan gives the opportunity to see all the Priyan's regulars under one roof. There is little something for everybody and to what extent the character is justified is a debate for another day.

The laugh-riot owing to comedy of errors bear uncanny resemblance to Priyan's earlier outing "Hungama". There are streaks of "One Two Three" (under-rated, IMO). The writer should be applauded for being able to weave the intricate complex mesh of sub-plots and integrate it into the main storyline. On the same note, the director deserves brownie points for being able to cross the deliverable milestone. No doubt there is breadth in terms of sub-plots, however the downside is lack of depth in it. By the time a character and the sub-plot sinks into the audience, the story moves on. And when the tributaries join in, the confusion starts to seep in.

In terms of performance the lead performers are do a fine job ie. Akki, Paresh, Suniel, Katrina in descending order of of screen time. Sameera Reddy hardly leaves an impression. The supporting cast as mentioned earlier are Priyan's regulars and seem under-utilised. But hey-ho, everybody seemed to have enjoyed the overseas holiday during the shoot. On that note, it seems basing the story in Malaysia was an overkill. Lets not forget "Hera Pheri" worked because of the simplicity which the audience were instantly able to connect.

Pritam's songs deserve a special mention, great foot-tapping numbers are justified adequately with their picturisation.

Finally Priyan could have come up with a better climax rather the water- shed.

I don't no why this film not trending well theatre.. Really entertaine this film So much comedy film Full on film shoot in hotel Misunderstanding comedy Enjoy 🙏😂😂😂😂😂

Priyadarshan's multi-starrer comedy 'De Dana Dan' is a film that you'll remember, not today, but in years to come. Here's way: Zany entertainers like these never get it right at the ticket window or with the film pundits during it's release... But, over the years, it gains a cult following.

'De Dana Dan' is non-stop non-sense with everything going-over-broad. Be it the length, the screaming, the complications, the confusion. 'De Dana Dan' is probably the best example for 'Escapist Cinema', a town where the word logic seems alien. Priyadarshan is a veteran, but his cinema {talking about his super-hits} have always been comedies... so whenever you tune in any hit-flick of this National-Award Winner please leave your brains safely at home.

Coming to the Performances: There are 25-26 characters in the film, in which each has a character to portray. Surprisingly, all excel in their respective parts. But the ones who stand out are: Paresh Rawal, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty, Archana Puran Singh, Neha Dhupia, Shakti Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, Rajpal Yadav, Johny Lever & Vikram Gokhale.

'De Dana Dan' is funny, but loud, lengthy & non-sensical. Watch this, but don't forget to lock your brains at home.

The movie was hilarious and Akki Suniel Paresh and Johnny lever are the best out of all the characters in the movie! The movie will probably be big hit. DE DANA DAN has so many characters that it gets difficult to pinpoint or single out any one actor. Akshay is at his best in a Priyadarshan film and DE DANA DAN proves it. Suniel is natural to the core. Paresh is incredible; he pitches in a superb act. Katrina and Sameera don't have much to do. Amongst the plethora of actors, Johny Lever, Neha Dhupia, Manoj Joshi, Asrani, Vikram Gokhale and Archana Puransingh deserve special mention. DE DANA DAN is targeted at the masses and it delivers laughter in abundance. Leave your brains behind to enjoy this madcap entertainer!
