Deewane Huye Paagal

I really loved this movie in my childhood but when I saw THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MARY it seemed Dull. I saw There is something about mary very late but I liked there is something about mary much better. Action sequence has been given in the climax in this movie, which I have not liked from the beginning, the only good thing in this film is the jodi of Akshay and Vijay Raj. If we compare Shahid Kapoor's character of deewane huye pagal with Ben Stiller's character of 'there is something about mary', then Shahid's role seems very small, doesn't it seem that his role is main. But i really loved the chemistry between Akshay & Vijay that's why i giving this a 5 star.

Despite being an Indianized version of There Is Something About Mary, DHP is a really entertaining film. So, you get the idea of the story.

Akshay Kumar is really good in the film. Paresh Rawal is also good, but not as much as he was in Awara Paagal Deewana or Hera Pheri. Shahid Kapoor and Rimii Sen give decent performances. Johnny Lever and Vijay Raaz are good in their supporting roles. Good to see Johnny Lever back in his comedic form.

But it is Suniel Shetty who is the surprise packet in DHP. Good see him in a good role. He makes the best use of it. He has plenty of scenes where he manages to raise some of the biggest laughs.

On the whole, DHP is a thoroughly enjoyable entertainer. Good doses of comedy, gloss, music and stunts.

Based on the 1998 American cult movie 'There's Something About Mary', Vikram Bhatt's 'Deewane Huye Paagal' is a silly film, that doesn't pay the correct homage to the film it adores.

Remember Ben Stiller sterling performance in 'There's Something About Mary', Diaz's charm, the witty dialog placed wonderfully in the screenplay and super direction. Sadly, 'Deewane Huye Paagal' is a letdown by very silly jokes, characters, dialog and mediocre direction.

The film begins ably, but loses energy 60-minutes in the film. The culmination is the biggest downer. It's plain bad. Bhatt is a pro when it comes to making Horror films, and after watching this film, your assured that Comedy isn't his favorite dish.

In the acting department, Shahid Kapoor is mechanical. One could've never imagined that he would transform into a caliber that would even nod a film like 'Kaminey' and perform superbly. An actor who has taken Giant Strides! Akshay Kumar is over-the-top, but that's the demand of the character. Sunil Shetty is good. Rimi Sen looks stunning and plays her part nicely. Paresh Rawal hams. Johnny Lever is his usual self. Vijay Raaz stands out, a true scene-stealer. Vivek Oberoi's interpretation of a Narrator is an eye-sore.

On the whole, not much left to talk about. Verdict: Strictly Average!

If you haven't watched 'There's Something About Marry' then you might enjoy this lame movie .... Lame because every joke is lifted directly off 'Something About Marry'.

Seems like nothing original is left in Indian film industry (or may be very little). Stay away from this piece of junk, watch 'There's Something About Marry' and you'll laugh throughout the movie. After watching the original you can watch 'DHP' just to compare how cheesy it is!! Its sad to see that good actors like OM Puri are working in such movies. As far as other actors are concerned they are ordinary actors not like Amir or Shahrukh who like to work in quality movies only.

I was really excited when I heard about Deewane Huye Paagal because it is the sequel to Awara Paagal Deewana, which is one of my favorite comedies, so I couldn't wait to see it. And I'll tell you that when I did, I thought it was hilarious!! The story is nicely developed, and even though there are a lot of characters, somehow, the plot never becomes confusing.

Performances, out of all the actors, were very good! Akshay Kumar is great, once again, and you find yourself laughing out loud at the way he acts and his dialogues! Shahid Kapoor plays the character of a very shy and innocent guy well, and he's easy to root for in the movie. I can't say anything specifically about Rimi Sen except that she was good. Sunil Shetty proves that he can do comedy. I loved his character and all of his dialogues. And last but not least, one of the funniest actors around, Paresh Rawal, is wonderful once again! Awara Paagal Deewana and Deewane Huye Paagal-both very fun comedies!
