Priyadrashan + Paresh Rawal + Akshay Khanna..........u expect a gr8 time pass and some really funny lines as in the past movies like Hulchul, Hungama etc. But this time Priyan really fails to give a full time pass movie. Although there are some really funny moments (Om Puri as always at best), but those few moments does not make a watchable flick. Story is a typical boolywood masala one so i don't think , i need to write anything on that. About acting part, Akshay is dependable, Paresh goes overhead, Rajpal Yadav is a complete waste, Genzil D'silva, i was not expecting much from her so OK, Om Puri is best.
Priyadarshan's magic could not be found in this one. Not as hilarious as his previous ones were. Moreover, there were hardly any good jokes. Om Puri and Paresh Rawal were excellent and funny as usual. The first half was funny and all credits to the duo; but the latter half did the movie in. The Climax was poor. The locations and direction were upto the mark except for a slow moving script and needless songs. Akshay khanna was okay. Genelia D'souza, the actress we saw in Masti and some telugu movies was found to be hyper... don't know whether the role demanded such overacting or it was natural. Rajpal yadav in his short scene was very funny. Priyadarshan had unnecessary scenes, songs, etcetera and he was trying his level best to tie the scenes together. Overall, worth watching if someone offers the tickets or have no other things to do.
What I liked about this film is that the comedy is grounded and not over the top and what really worked was the sweet chemistry between Akshaye and Paresh as father son duo.
This Movie is an typical priyadarshan movie with his favorite stars Paresh rawal, Om Puri, Akshay Khanna and rajpal yadav. Comedy is really very good in movie, and it also shows great father son relationship. This is a complete family movie which you can enjoy with your whole family, though the music is not such good, but I am sure you are gonna enjoying this movie. About actors part, Akshay again did his best and Paresh shows his great talent in emotion here, Om Puri is funny, Genelia rocks in her role, Rajpal yadav and Archana Puransingh was good in their part but was hardly there. The movie was an average one from earning point of view, but if you are looking for a goof family movie, then its a must watch. I will rate this 6/10. Today Priyadarshan is the only Director/ Producer who is making complete family entertainment and comedy movies.
Once again a great movie from Priyadarshan ! Cheers ! Comedy in Indian movies have truly matured its really heartening to note that such entertaining movies are "Made in India".
For an out of the world entertaining experience just go and watch the movie. Paresh Raval is great as always, Akshaye Khanna has carved a niche for himself and to see him in this movie as yet another entertainer is a delight. Other actors have also done their best. Good teamwork generally.
The most refreshing experience is Genelia D'Souza, she's ultimate what a innocent, smiling look. She carries on her role all through the movie with great efficiency. She's the best. I watched the movie twice to see her again ! So for all this congrats to Priyadarshan and team and await more and more like this from them in coming years.
