Mr. & Mrs. Khiladi

It's a pure comedy movie, not like nowadays comedy movies filled with double meaning dialogue and jokes.

Really liked akshay-kader khan comedy combo.

The music and songs of the movie were horrible.

Mr and Mrs Khiladi review :

Two David Dhawan movies clashed on same day - Deewana Mastana and Mr and Mrs Khiladi. While Deewana Mastana fared better mainly due to Govinda's clap worthy histrionics, Mr and Mrs Khiladi was also a decent earner at the box office.

Unlike Akshay's earlier action films in the Khiladi franchise, this one was an out and out comedy with Akshay and Juhi Chawla in lead roles and Kader Khan and Paresh Rawal providing able comic support. In fact, Paresh Rawal frequently breaks the fourth wall to talk to the audience quite like Ashok Kumar Saahab in the popular '80s TV serial Hum Log.

Akshay and Juhi shared an awesome chemistry on screen. Akshay's fight with a Sumo wrestler was much publicised as the film's highlight but unlike his earlier encounter with Undertaker in Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi (1996), this one turned out to be quite pheeka!!.

I can't really make out why this film was made other than to cash in on the Akshay 'Khiladi' craze and to pair him (finally) with Juhi Chawla. The film has a bizarre charm to it, simultaneously sunny and silly and unapologetically illogical. Akshay gives a rare glimpse of a latent knack for comedy, but expectedly Juhi Chawla dominates the show with her patent (and now patented) perfect comic timing. Indian women are never expected to be funny, but Juhi gets all the respect in my book for being the reigning comic beauty of India. (Note to filmmakers: make more comedies with Juhi Chawla! And not just the ones where she has to share the screen with Shah Rukh Khan or Aamir Khan. Write her a great, classic comedy, a la Chaalbaaz!)

When Raja and his Mama were at the gym, Vicky was trying to rape Shalu while everyone was just watching. Raja was not allowed to fight with anyone before 12 am. So, he sees everything for two minutes, and just when clock ticked 12, he beats Vicky and partners alone. This single scene defines the film, which can be described at best as plain stupidity.

Story: Raja(Akshay Kumar) trusts his luck that he is destined to become a king(i.e, rich) and he doesn't even need to work before that. Chanda Mama(Satish Kaushik) is the one who made him believe so. Shaalu(Juhi Chawla), for some reason, wants to marry this idiot but her father Badri Prasad(Kader Khan) wants a hard working man as his son-in-law. On other hand, Chanda mama advices Raja to stay away from girls. Will Shaalu be able to convince her father, Raja and Chanda Mama?

I don't feel that a film has to be completely logical but this one is devoid of any. The actions of all the characters at every time are plain stupid. No girl will ever love a boy who is hostile towards everyone, treats her father badly and is so rude. The story gets more stupid as it progresses. Both of them were taking marriage very lightly. The way he gets money is stupid, and so is the ending.

The songs not good enough, and are distracting. A special mention for, "Jab tak rahega samose mein aloo",like what they were upto. Who wrote the lyrics?

I used to enjoy it as a kid. So, it's my personal bias which kept me from giving it the lowest possible score. Or maybe because the meassage they wanted to convey is good.

Total comedy movie, awesome stuff to watch back in the days
