Chal Mere Bhai

I was hoping for something different here but being Bollywood they played it safe

I thoroughly enjoyed watching David Dhavan's Chal Mere Bhai, a crazy comedy which is a complete laugh riot for the entire family. The movie has drama, action, romance and comedy, all blended together to create a picture that keeps you entertained from start to finish. The film tells the story of two loving brothers, Vicky and Prem, both of whom fall for the same girl. That sounds rather dramatic, but everything is flavoured with great humour and is great fun to watch. Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan play the leading roles, they do a great job and have a great chemistry with Karisma Kapoor, but more than anything they just look like real brothers simply because of their own friendship behind the cameras. Everything in their interaction is incredibly convincing and nice to watch. Sanju is restrained and subdued and Salman is naturally funny with his happy-go-lucky attitude. Karisma Kapoor is awesome as the innocent and unassuming yet smart Sapna. These three leads act according to the film's mood and provide the film's most hilarious moments. What I particularly liked about the movie is its lighthearted nature. The movie has practically no villains and the supporting cast pretty much resembles the big good family of Hum Aapke Hain Koun. Anand-Milind compose a lovely soundtrack for the film. Among the songs, "Aajkal Ki Ladkiyan" is very catchy, "Chori Chori Sapnon" is also very nice, but my favourite number is "Meri Neend Jaane Lagi Hai", which is very melodious and is beautifully pictured on screen. Chal Mere Bhai is not some extraordinary film but it's very entertaining and deserves many repeat viewings, at least according to me.

David Dhawan in 1999 after the superhit BIWI NO.1 with Salman repeated Salman and Karisma for the 4th time in his film with this film which released 2 months after the not so successful DHLJ

The movie is the same formula Salman, Karisma and Dutt have done for ages Similar to SAAJAN minus there Sanjay was the lead and he had a great role here he is just the typical no nonsense kinda boss who falls in love Even the music is ordinary here and also the romance

It's like 9 years after SAAJAN you make a diluted version which looks like a rehash of several other films

The film is nothing different and is actually boring to watch Remember DILLAGI, Remember SAAJAN.etc

Direction by DD is bad Music is nothing special

Amongst actors Salman does his usual stuff he did mostly those days though he was more lively and natural compared to today's comedies of his where he is bad Sanju seems bored Karisma does her part very well Dalip Tahil is okay Shakti Kapoor, Himani are routine Sushma Seth is good

Vicky (Sanjay Dutt) and Prem (Salman Khan) are brothers and the closest of friends. Sapna (Karishma Kapoor), Vicky's secretary, and Prem fall in love, but Prem waits to announce it hoping that his older brother will find a wife first. Unfortunately, when Vicky settles on a bride, it's none other than Sapna. Prem is torn between his new love for Sapna and his long-standing devotion to Vicky.

As often happens with Bollywood, this begins as a lighthearted romantic comedy, but in the second hour becomes a more serious family drama dealing with love, duty, and sacrifice. Dutt and Khan have excellent chemistry together and were entirely convincing as brothers. Kapoor, as usual, gave a fine performance, both comedic and serious. The musical numbers were good and the costumes were beautiful. Overall, it's an excellent and enjoyable movie from beginning to end.

I enjoy watching this movie . Salman Khan and Sanjay dutt have done a excellent acting. Full of fun and emotional between brothers , the movie shows love between brothers ..good movie by David Dhavan.
