Chupke Chupke

Best comedy movie of 80s era which will give you extreme laughter rolls 😁

Hrishikesh Mukherjee known for his simple and yet excellent movies gives us a comedy which is so delightful, it is remembered even today

The film has several hilarious moments, especially between Dharmendra-Om Prakash and will make you die laughing especially their Hindi vs English scenes

The film has all ingredients well balanced, comedy, romance and it makes for an entertaining film something we miss from today's comedies especially Rohit Shetty type of rubbish comedies

The first half has several hilarious moments which make you die laughing while even the second half have several hilarious moments and you'll keep waiting for more

Direction by Hrishikesh Mukherjee is classic Music by S.D.Burman is superb, Sare Gamapa sung by Kishore/Rafi is superb while Ab ke Sawan is superb and rest are superb

Dharmendra shows his range as a comedian and does a brilliant job, often known for his action roles, Dharmendra was superb in 70s in all genres sadly post 80's his comedy became terrible But here he excels Amitabh in a supporting role excels in his comic part perhaps his first comic role,his expressions and dialogue delivery are flawless Both appeared together in SHOLAY and their chemistry is fabulous Surprisingly both diverse films in the same year Amitabh and Hrishikesh made several classic films like ANAND(1971), ABHIMAAN(1973), MILI(1975), ALAAP and BEMISAAL(1982) Sharmila is a natural and does a brilliant job Jaya Bachchan too leaves a mark in a smaller role Om Prakash is hilarious in his role, his role is the important part in the film and he excels in his part Amongst rest Asrani in a small role does well and rest are okay

Chupke Chupke is masterpiece by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, I love his style of story telling be it Bawarchi, Rang Birangi, Naram Garam, Golmaal, Khubsoorat, Buddha Mil Gaya, all of which are great movies. All his stories have very simple storyline, powerful cast, lots of human emotion and patriotism towards Indian culture and languages.

Dharmendra is truly amazing, and so is Amitabh Bachchan and rest of the cast supports them well. Since most of the dialogs are in pure Hindi, some people may find it difficult to follow. Hrishikesh Mukherjee through his movies and characters always pointed to some aspect or the other of the lives of Indian people, and hence all his characters always feel very real and get deep inside your skin and you become a part of the act.

The practical joke played by a Botany professor on his brother-in-law is the focus of the movie, as pointed out by other commenter. Chupke Chupke is a film in which the dialogs combine with the situations to collectively impart the comic momentum to the movie which persist till the very last minute, very very entertaining film, highly recommended for the entire family. If you liked this movie, then do give the movies mentioned at the beginning a shot, you would thank me later. :) also highly recommended.

This film is evenly paced throughout, though it turns out to be a Dharmendra show! Prominent among the hilarious scenes are, when Dharmendra, as a chauffeur, seeks clarification from Om Prakash as to why 'go', 'so' are pronounced in the same way and why not 'to', and the other is that Amitabh Bachchan (English Professor) is shown memorising some aspects of Botany using a college botany textbook under dim-lit table-lamp, because he has to take 'botany tuitions' for his sweetheart (Jaya Bhaduri)! Gulzar's screenplay and dialogues take the cake in this film! A must-have among the VCD collection! 'Chupke-Chupke Chal Ree Purvaiya' is the pick of songs of this film, which too are melodious.

The performance of Amitabh Bachchan stands out amongst some of the greatest names of the 70s.Hrishikesh Mukherjee yet again shows that he is capable of presenting comedy in as sublime manner as he does emotions.Right through the movie not a single scene seems to be out of place.Dharmendra and Sharmila Tagore keep you spellbound for the initial part of the movie while Amitabh steals the show in the later.Dharmendra does well in his disguise as a gatekeeper earlier and as a driver for the most part of the movie.Actually this brings out of him his comic talent which would not have been possible with his real character of a serious botany professor.Keshto Mukherjee,Jaya Bhaduri and David are full of energy whenever they appear.The scenes which are bound to make the viewer laugh are the ones in which Dharmendra as the driver Pyare Mohan first meets Raghav and the final climax of the movie in the temple where Amitabh and Jaya are getting married.The music of Sachin Dev Burman is superb as usual.Needless to mention is the brilliance of Lata Mangeshkar in the songs "Ab ke Sajan Sawan Mein" and "Chupke Chupke Chal Re purwaiya".
