'Coolie No. 1' deserves a watch for the sheer magic of Govinda & Kader Khan. The Supremely Talented Actors, pitch in incredible performances, that stand out.
'Coolie No. 1' directed by David Dhawan, was a Box-Office Smash Hit back in 1995. It's an entertaining film, that is worth your time. A Story about complications within a few people, unfolds on screen, with some really entertaining moments.
The Writing Material is up-to the mark, while the Dialogue are excellent. Dhawan's Direction is nice. Cinematography & Editing are decent. Music by Anand-Milind & Shyam-Surender, is foot-tapping. Performance-Wise: Govinda & Kader Khan, as told, deliver incredible performances. And even their on-screen chemistry, is top-notch. Sadashiv Amrapurkar & Shakti Kapoor are funny, as well. Karisma Kapoor is passable. Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Harish, Kanchan & Mahesh Anand lend good support.
On the whole, A Must See for Govinda & Kader Khan devotees!

Govinda is an excellent comedian and no-one can be better than him. He did really well in this film and Raja Babu as well, I'm surprised that he can do comedy. I was thinking that why he didn't do comedy film in 1980's until 1990's but thanks to David Dhawan who directed both of films. David makes us laugh and enjoy to watch them.
It was a huge hit at that time, they're classic and much more funny than nowaday.
Before the film released, I remember I viewed a very short song trailer on VHS, 'Main To Raste Se Jaa Raha Tha'. It was very rare trailer and difficult to find which VHS that it contains. Someone who is out there might still got them.

Coolie No. 1 is one of the funniest film of the decade. Govinda became possibly known for being a comedy King after this Movie. His earlier work Raja Babu was another Entertainer. Shakti Kapoor won the best comedian for this movie and truly deserved it. The movie has action, romance, family drama and lots of comedy. The weakness in this movie has to be Karishma Kapoor. Karishma Kapoor is one of Bollywood worst actresses. Most of her films are either Flops or Hits because of the actor. Every Karishma Movie I've seen had a deja vu of her always acting childishly immature. Perhaps the director know's this before casting or she just suits the dim witted character like her sister Kareena. Anyway the movie still is a Pure Entertainer. Thanks to Kader Khan, Shakti Kapoor the famous comedy duo. Above all Govinda.
A rollercoaster of a ride a typical 90s comedy with dram comedy amd emotion acton packed masala movie a good entertainer.
