Duplicate

'Duplicate' is a failure. While Shahrukh is competent, the script is ridiculous. His role as a villain is plain nasty, while the good Shahrukh is too childish, almost behaving like a six year old. Again, Juhi Chawla is energetic, but is saddled with weak lines. The story is obvious and corny, the humor too overacted to be fun and the climax is not to be believed. One plus point: some good songs by Anu Malik, and a hot Sonali Bendre who struts her stuff very well. A disappointing film then, because it really should have been much much better. Keep hand on remote ready.

Overall 3/10

I know it's a bad movie, but when I was a kid, Indian movies were very famous in Azerbaijan and I found it funny and entertaining to watch in my childhood.

Babloo (Sharukh Khan) is basically a daydreamer and aspires to a chef on international repute. He is forever daydreaming of cooking at five star establishments. Manu Dada (Sharukh Khan) on the other hand is a ruthless criminal on the run. Babloo is in love with Sonia (Juhi Chawla) who is the Banquet manager of an up market hotel that Sharukh Khan works at. Manu Dada likes Lilly (Sonali Bendre). Babloo and Manu's tracks keep alternating till they converge at the interval part of the film. After which Manu takes advantage of the innocent Babloo and continues his violent escapades using Babloo's identity and Babloo uses Manu. This film was a good movie and very funny. I loved watching the fighting parts.

The show is not that bad, Bablu/Manu acting is okie... great tagline. The songs are great... but too many... it's like a musical...

It is funny, it is a comedy, isn't it? It is highly enjoyable.

It has great songs and great dance (SRK in a silver T-shirt hitting Juhi against his chest - the best moment in Bollywood ever)

It has some wonderful (comedy-type, Bollywood-style - never forget this judging this one) acting

It features SRK and Juhi together - such a wonderful pair.

And it has one more fantastic quality: Shahrukh definitely looks his best - he's still young, yet not so teen-age-like anymore, you can see his wonderful dark skin (which was whitened more and more in the movies as he became such a huge star later on) and as he carries two totally different roles - he makes the full range of his cute and angry eyes.

10/10, no further questions
