Yes as I adult I should be embarrassed about liking a movie that has a kaboother being used to send love letters, but I love the movie for innocence and the cheese. The whole Salman turning his head during the introduction scene, the love for his mother, the innocent love between him and Bhagyashree, the one hand pushups, the 'dosti ka ek husool hain madam, no sorry, no thanks'. I could go on and on about the movie and I have not even talked about the tons of memories i have with it. That is what MPK is to me. I assume many fans have memories of Sallu movies like that.
I am not against numbers, people make movies for money, not charity. But to reduce a movie, that too a mass entertainer to numbers and competition is *shrug*. The value lies in the fun people had and in repeat value.
