Bha Ji in Problem

Sundeep Cheema (Ghuggi) is married to two women. Keeping them ignorant of one another's existence has been something of a challenge. But he's somehow managed it successfully! Until Jeeta (Gippy) enters in his life. Jeeta promptly falls for the lovely Preet (Ragini) who happens to be Sandeep's sister. Sundeep is strongly opposed to this love match, because he knows all about Jeeta's notorious past. Unfortunately, Jeeta also knows about Sundeep's double life! So begins a hilarious battle of wits.

Review: 'Bhaji In Problem' has a lot of weight in the form of expectations from the industry. Director Smeep Kang, who made his producers laugh all the way with 'Carry On Jatta' is back again with another film of a similar genre. Story by the director is in itself. Dialogues by Gurpreet Ghuggi and Naresh Kathooria were very catchy.

Smeep Kang as a Director has impressed with this film. BIP, he has followed multiple styles of direction. In some sequences towards the beginning and post interval, he's made the film like a light-hearted comedy where as he's gone overboard and loud in other sequences.

Music is by 2 composers - Jatinder Shah & Surinder Rattan. The numbers are foot tapping and peppy. Music of BIP has been a disappointment as it has failed to meet the expectations.

Coming to the performances, Gippy Grewal was in tremendous form. It was a pleasure to watch him act. He's become strong and stronger with each passing film. Ragini Khanna was all right. Khushboo Grewal has really grown as an actor after Carry On Jatta. Veterans Om Puri & Avtar Gill were all right. Show stealer as always was B.N. Sharma.

Overall, Bhaji in Problem is a film which has it's own merits and will stand tall on them. Music & Story could have been better than what they are. Also it has fine performances from all its actors. It was a treat to watch both the GG's - Gippy Grewal & Gurpreet Ghuggi.

'Bhaji in Problem' is just as hilarious as it comes out to be, and looks. From the director of some of the most funniest Punjabi films ever, including Carry On Jatta & Lucky Di Unlucky Story, this film too, as expected, is extremely funny. It has excellent performances from most of the cast, and also has an exciting story.

One of the problem's with the film however, is that the story is now a bit old and despite being quite different, resembles the director's earlier film Carry On Jatta so much that you can't stop thinking about that while watching this. Though both films are equally funny and entertaining in my opinion, Carry On Jatta strikes on Number One because it released earlier and despite the two sharing a similar story, is much stronger.

Anyways, if you're bored or with your family, and looking for a good time-pass or just a simple family-comedy to watch, this film is great for you! Especially for fans who enjoy Punjabi comedies, this one's a winner! 8/10!

Seeing my first Punjabi film in over a decade, maybe 2 (just life) and what a way to start.

An absolute laugh riot. The production quality is average and sometimes you feel the story moves too fast but once the stage is set (and assuming you buy the premise), it is just non stop laughter. As others have mentioned about BN Sharma, his confused questions are marvelous, just wow, you feel he overdoes it, but that's the point isn't it? And anyways he is reacting to the situation as it is developed by the director and story writers.

Was thinking whether to rate it 8 or 9, but I thoroughly enjoyed it so despite minor complaints, going with 9.

Watching the Punjabi Industry grow, here comes Akshay Kumar entering the scene to en-cash the current trend, producing yet another comedy of errors featuring the singing star Gippy Grewal in the lead. Expectedly following the on-going craze, Akshay too teams up with the 'master director of such films' Smeep Kang, investing in his routine squad and set pattern followed since CHAKK DE PHATTEY released in 2008. However the good news is that though based on exactly the same blueprint of creating a comedy through mistaken or hidden identities, director Smeep Kang yet again comes up with a winner, which mostly provides the entertainment factor throughout its 2 hours of duration smartly and gives you not much to complain while walking out of the theater.

Having nothing significantly new to offer in its script, the film purely focuses on giving only one thing to its audience right from the very first scene, which is Comedy. It basically scores because of its well- written, witty and hilarious dialogues rendered in a punching style by the entire cast. And since Punjabi comedy largely or rather solely depends upon its comic dialogues only written in a raunchy style, BHAJI IN PROBLEM delivers the goods and you mostly feel satisfied with the content served.

Another major achievement of director Smeep Kang in this latest venture remains that the master is able to generate almost the same impact of his previous hits, even without two big veterans in the team namely Jaswinder Bhalla and Binnu Dhillon. And considering the name, fame & comic timing of these two actors, its nothing short of a big triumph to deliver such a product without their 'much desired' presence & contribution. Having said that, a few still might feel that the film could have reached much greater heights with the complete team performing together, as seen & enjoyed in their last hit CARRY ON JATTA.

Among the downers we can count its unimpressive & not-required songs, poor cameos of both cricketer Harbhanjan Singh and Bollywood's Akshay Kumar, completely lazy and uncaring kind of comic portrayal by Om Puri (can be called a misfit too) and pretty routine kind of camera-work and background score as usual.

In short if you thoroughly enjoyed their CARRY ON JATTA last year, then you are sure going to get entertained while watching BHAJI IN PROBLEM too since this also has the same energetic kind of second half with many hilarious one liners & particularly B. N. Sharma giving you a real good time along with Gippy, Ghuggi, Ragini, Avtar Gill and more.

But talking about the future of Punjabi Film Industry, it now stands on a more risky or dicey stage than ever before………, because if this film becomes a HIT then once again, everyone would start making comedies without any set vision or content. And in case this performs below average then even the Hit directors like Smeep Kang would have to think about re-inventing themselves and the Industry would again be searching for a genre to please its regional viewers.

In clear words, as stated earlier in few recent reviews, till Punjabi Film Industry witnesses different Hits coming from a diversifying range of genres and not just comedy, it will keep struggling for long in a sad state of confusion and would find it tough to reach the next level of growth in cinematic terms.

Yes as the title says this movie is perfect combo of Fun & Masti. Don't get me wrong guys this doesn't have any relation with Hindi movie Masti or Grand Masti but its far better than both of them by making it a nice and simple comedy without any double meaning words. I watched this movie as First day First show and appreciated the work of actors and Directors. When star cast of Carry On jatta and Lucky di Unlucky story teams up with the same Director Smeep kang then one thing is must thats comic moments which makes you laugh number of times. I will not add any story part here to spoil anyone interest but if you like mindless comedies and watch movies for enjoyment than this is your dish. Gippy is amazing as always and this is first movie Ghuggi plays a lead better than Gippy and has good screen presence with amazing dialogues. Akshay and Harbhajan Singh are hardly for two scenes so don't expect much on acting part from these two biggies. Karamjeet Anmol and Ragini Khanna are amazing in their role. Other actors who appeared in the movie are Om Puri, Rana Jung Bahadurand Avtar Gill are strictly okay. Akshay produce this movie and Smeep Directed this and trust me it will hit the Jackpot and collect good amount as there are not much competition in market except Krrish 3 and Raam Leela and also it has been First Punjabi movie released with lots of screen in Delhi.

I will rate this 9/10.
