Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya

Turned out to be exactly as I expected: A no-brainer, total nonsense masala movie. Exactly what we expect from David Dhawan(DD). But I don't mean any of it in a bad way, coz the movie never tries to be anything more, and in its silliness and absurdity, works well for the comedy genre, while sticking very much within the confines of clichéd family entertainment.

The excuse for a story revolves around a bachelor Casanova Doctor (Salman Khan) in love with a model (Katrina Kaif). But to leave the relationship just to an affair, he tells her he is already married. When she insists on meeting the Wife, he ropes in his ever-doting Nurse (Sushmita Sen) as his fake wife. We also have Arshad Warsi play a sidekick/friend to the doctor, and Sohail Khan as Katrina's intervening neighbor.

As usual, DD defies all logic and intelligence for a movie that is out of his assembly line. It is not one of his best, but definitely better than the mediocre ones he has made us suffer. The comedy is not loud (except for the Rajpal Yadav scenes) and works mostly, especially with Salman and Arshad translating it with their impeccable timing. Sushmita Sen is her usual warm self. Katrina Kaif is a Bombshell, looking every bit as gorgeous as made out to be. And even though she hardly acts, she never comes across as plastic. Sohail Khan is forgettable at best and annoying at worst.

If you are getting bored and have three hours to spare, you'll have a good time watching this instead.

MOvie is not bad, but not good either. Confusion and Chaos creates comedy, but I think bollywood has overdone the formula. It was funny in Golmaal and even other David Dhawan flicks but this one just didn't make me laugh. Maybe all the controversy surrounding it. I thought movie was ordinary,not a laugh riot like his previous comedies. Movie had certain predictability to it too. Sush ending up with salman khan. The performances were OK. Salman's best comic film was Andaz apna apna. In other films he went over the board. This one he was OK, though he did manage to keep a confuse look on his face throughout. Just like he was constipated or was it expression of confusion or distress? Hhaha. Sohail Khan, whats up with that voice? He goes over board on most of the scenes, well not his fault, probably Salman taught him to do it like that. If you see Hello Brother, you know what i mean. Katrina Kaif was not that great. She seem like a robot with no expressions. I don't think she knows Hindi,she didn't even open her mouth in most of the dialogues. She was dubbed for sure.Finally, Sushmita Sen was good. She is hot, graceful, magnetic, and when she talks she carries great confidence. She is a good actress in my mind, she has a wonderful body, great voice, great charismatic approach to each character.She is good to me all the movies she does. Arsad Warsiwas good too, funny, but he had great comic timing since Tere Mere Sapney. He is a great actor. fine performances in all the films he does, at least ones that i have seen. I hope Bollywood don't type cast him to being a comedian. I think he can be a great all around actor. Beena Kak as the mother was OK. Rajpal Yadav is a funny man, he too is a great actor. the movie was disappointing for me, although its bearable watching once. I would not say its gonna be a classic as some David's films were. The Salman controversy didn't help it either.

I am not a fan of Salman Khan in fact i hate him plus Suhail Khan is also there so here it is "Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya " a movie from which i had no expectations and knew right from the beginning it is going to be a Masala entertaining flick with absolutely no space for rational. It turned out to be exactly the same.

THe plot like any other DD's movie is well set for lots of scope of comic errors confusions and stark dialogs. Salman Khan plays a Casanova doctor who to avoid the risk of commitment keeps telling his girlfriends that he is married. The problem starts when he falls in love with a model (Katrina Kaif). Everything goes fine but then Kat asks Salman that she wants to meet his wife so Salman somehow convince His secretary (Sush) to play the part of his wife. To add more troubles in the life of Salman Pyaremohan walks in as a friendly neighbor of Kat. The film reminds of golden days of DD's film making when he gave hits like the No.1 series , Aankhein and all. He lost his touch in between by making movies like Ek Aur Ek Gyarah , Yeh Hai Jalwa and few more but the last movie Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and MPKK shows the real potential of this entertaining director. Performance wise Sush is absolutely amazing she delivers the role point perfect her smile kills you and her Nakhras are awesome. Kat had a role of a model romantic lover and we all know she could do that pretty easily. Amazingly Salman Khan gave a solid comic performance no more irritating laughs and those stupid giggles of Hello Brother. Arshad Warsi is getting better and better in playing the Hero's friend's character. SUHAIL KHAN is a HUGE set back for the movie but David Dhawan had enough brains to keep his role very short and concise but still he damages the movie to some extent.

MPKK is good because of extremely good dialogs and yes they are by JAffery and Sanjay CHel . My personal favorite is the spoof of old mother and how Sush tries to irritate her by the common methods of age old Indian movie. Music is catchy and hip hop so it goes with the taste of the movie IN the end sit back give your Grey cells a break and enjoy the movie as it comes I am sure when you will be driving back home you won't regret for your time and money on this movie 6/10

Plot Outline: Samir (Salman), a doctor by profession and a flirt by hobby; is in love with Sonia (Katrina) but has unfortunately lied to her that he was already married. Trouble brews when Sonia airs her intentions to meet the alleged wife. Samir approaches his dutiful nurse Naina (Sushmita) to play 'wife' in a drama that turns out into a comedy of errors. Also involved are characters of Rajpal Yadav, Sohail Khan & Arshad Warsi.

Comment: David Dhavan returns again with his comedies and mixed relationships after his last Mujhse Shadi Karogi which was a poor copy-paste of Hollywood's Anger Management. Although the story has nothing vis-à-vis the typical Bollywood, the execution is neat. However, I felt Kya Kool was a better comedy this year.

The movie's negatives and positives emanate from the Actors themselves. Although Salman has done a good job trying to understand why he fell in love (after he probably fell in love during Maine Pyar Kiya in 1989), I found it difficult to see him play Doctor on screen. His brother, supposedly in a comical role is painfully irritating on screen. Other two noted comedians could've done better if their roles were scripted better. Katrina looks lovely, and Sushmita's neat. Music: 'Just chill' makes a good ring tone.

Rating: 3/5

Jeez whatever movie I like, I find out later its copied. This is one of them. Bollywood does not want to put in any efforts.
