Shaadi No. 1

I was looking forward to watching this movie as the trailers looked good. It is directed by David Dhawan, who has given us a couple of entertaining movies in the past. Shaadi No. 1 has an incredibly large cast of actors and looked like a Hit. A lousy script about 3 guys who want to commit suicide because there not happy with married life (how realistic and funny). They suddenly make a deal with a man to fall in love with his spoilt daughters and dump them. After many appalling flirting techniques, they manage to romance these childish girls. Suddenaly, a stranger comes and tells them he knows about their affairs, and he will tell their wives. It then follows into cheap comedy, that doesn't make you laugh a single bit. Sanjay Dutt is the stranger, why did a Great actor like him make this pathetic movie. Fardeen Khan has given us some good films, but he seems to be making worser movie over and over again. Sharman Joshi was funny in style and maybe the least annoying character in the movie. Zayed Khan gives us another Flop movie, remember (Main Hoon Na = Anybody that makes a Shahrukh Khan film have a big advantage). Esha Deol and Soha Ali Khan give dreadful performances in annoying roles. Ayesha Takia looks sexy as ever and is incredibly cute with the sweetest smile, but her looks couldn't save the film. Riya Sen is another sex bomb, that couldn't save the film. Introducing singer Sophie in a unimpressive role. Finally Aarti Chabria who looks pretty but her acting once again was poor. I would of given this a 0/10, but because of the girls a 2/10. Out of all the girls, i would love to have a three some with Riya Sen and Aarti Chabria. Their is a song in this film Zara zara where Ayesha Takia shows her melon curves, wow i would love to suck them melons.

I thought that Shaadi No.1 was a fun movie to watch. I saw this movie after I saw No Entry and they were very similar, but it's definitely a sure time-pass!

Acting: Sanjay Dutt was OK, but he overacted and "missiles" and his Punjabi accent get very annoying after about 10 minutes.Fardeen Khan was fine in his role and justified it, but I didn't think he was that great with the comedy.Zayed Khan was the best overall in the movie and I think he did very well with the comedy. He also dances so well! I really did enjoy his performance in the movie, and he was definitely my favorite to watch.Sharman Joshi- I don't really know why but he kind of annoyed me in the film. He also justified his role.

The wives(Ayesha Takia, Esha Doel, & Soha Ali Khan): they didn't get much scope, but they were fine in their roles. I think the best was Ayesha Takia. The girlfriends (Aarti Chabaaria, Sophie Choudhary, & Riya Sen): They also didn't get much scope, but they fulfilled their roles. I would say the best was Aarti Chabaaria.

Songs: They were all very good, they had nice lyrics, and they were choreographed well.

It was fun to watch and I completely enjoyed it

The best thing I liked about the film was the many references to other films. Lucky's "misaals" are mostly nods to well known lines from past films, Munnabhai, Sholay, etc.

The "misaals" are impossible to translate, and will make no sense to viewers who had no exposure to the cultural references contained in it. Perhaps this is one reason IMDb users rate it so low.

I found the film enjoyable. The scripted dialogue is very clever and quite funny. On a second viewing, I got a lot more of the jokes and cultural references. Most comedies do not warrant a second viewing, but this one improved with it.

DD earlier made remarkable comedies though illogical yet funny

This is a weird film by him, he tried the MASTI formula and brought an identical story of 3 guys who hav 3 wives and search for love outside even the characters are similar

The comedy scenes are so cringe worthy, it looks like we are watching a stage play, the dialogues too are damn stage like

The spiderman jokes are so bizarre while the Sanju angle and all other stuff is contrived

The ending is the worst part of the film

Direction by DD is bad Music is ordinary

Camera-work is only saving grace

Amongst actors Fardeen Khan and Zayed Khan shout too loud and act artificially mostly Sharman excels in his part, though this isn't a patch of his best works Amongst girls Esha overacts, Ayesha is just there and the rest are all bad Sanjay is plain horrible, he hams it up badly

the reason i give this movie 8/10 is because it does have some flaws but otherwise it can make you laugh David Dhawan is the Steven Spielberg of comedy he knows how to pick his scriptwriters Milap Zaveri did the dialogues can you please put that down IMDb.com i don't know who the screenwriter is because the credits don't show it overall good movie it basically runs on a pattern and how everybody mainly the main male characters get out of trouble that seems to pop up everywhere seeing that is funny overall great acting by everybody too many songs but luckily i watched it on DVD so songs weren't a problem the heroines were sexy good movie this deserves a chance please watch it and enjoy
