Anari No. 1

Enjoy it but don't use brain while watching this movie.

Kuku Kohli do a David Dhawan and that too better than later.

It's amazing how actors like Govinda & Jonny Lever can make a movie so much entertaining when it has nothing in it.

Pluses: Govinda - He seems effortless. Johny Lever - Hilarious impersonation of Daler Mehndi. Tapori Dance - Timing with Simran and Tandon is amazing. Tapori Songs - Enjoyable tukbandi.

Minuses: Bad Story. Bad Acting - except Govinda. Average direction

Here he tries to whip up the usual concoction of gag bag humour in a double role as Rahul, the rich tycoon and Raja, a poor waiter. Rahul lives in a big mansion with his stepmother, Aruna Irani, and uncle, Prem Chopra, who is eyeing his property and is always scheming to grab it.

Raja always dream of becoming rich. He gangs up with his girl friend, Sapna (Raveena Tandon) and friend, Sattaar (Satish Shah) and kidnaps the rich one. But his conscience gives him trouble so he let him go, which lets a strange villain, Tiger Tadipaad who tries desperately to look menacing, enter the scene. He abducts the rich guy and then tries to create plastic terror.

But, as Shakespeare says, all is well that ends well. Raja makes use of his resemblance with Rahul and after usual antics, succeeds in freeing him from the villain's clutches. Aruna Irani gets her son back, Sona (Simran) gets her fiancée back and there is sudden change of heart in the scheming uncle. And, they live happily ever after.

If you like Govinda movies, don't miss this one.

The Govinda/David Dhawan combination just gets better with every movie..! This one is no exception, right from the lyrics of the opening song to Johnny Lever's hilarious impersonation of Daler Mehndi. Dhawan seems to have a knack of laughing at everything thats established about Hindi cinema... he does'nt even hesitate to poke fun at his own movie - with Sattar Bhai (Satish Shah), Raveena Tandon, and Govinda (Raju) pausing towards the middle of the movie and having a quick on screen introspection on where the movie is heading... ".. is plot mein twist kaise layen yaar..." asks Sattar before introducing a whole bunch of whacko villains and comics to continue the entertainment. For those who spend $8-10 on a puny 80 minute Hollywood production wondering at the end what to do with your half-full tub of popcorn, this movie should put an end to all your hopeless angst. This is actually 2 movies for the price of one - an all-you-can-eat orgy of fun that you will want to see again and again to catch all the subtle jokes. The only reason I did'nt give it a 10 was the rather poor ending - a standard filmi fight instead of more crazy antics or another song & dance sequence from Govinda.

A typical 90s govinda movie..!! Surely one time watch n can enjoy the comedy..!

Govinda, kader khan, johny lever, satish shah, razaak khan.. all r fun to watch..!!
