I watched the movie, the starting varun scenes in the train station were overacting cringey but by the time Kuwar raj came, the movie actually kept making me smile, some good one-liners, and paresh Rawal is a comic genius actor, (miss kader khan) but paresh is very good. the songs are great, ( the tere siva song is missing.) the movie needed to be longer, it's very choppy and rushed. but It had me smiling with it's silly dialogues even though it was so over the top. my favorite line the welding waale glasses one.

varun was inconsistent, but he still is a very good comedic actor when he gets it right. he has too much of a burden, David Dhawan gave varun too much to do, he should have had more of the sisters, there was no meat to sara's and shika's characters. but they were good when on screen. rajpal Yadav was copying some shakti kapoor character, and even he disappeared , as did javed jaffrey.


I think the movie had a lot chopped off to make it 2 hours, it kept jumping around like skits.

not a 5 star movie but still a good time pass movie.


both varun and Sara were very inconsistent in their looks. Sara at times looked stunning but few scenes not so much. and Varun's dark makeup was jarring.


but still love the songs. and want to see the Goa song

and can watch the movie again, which you can't say about too many bollywood movies any more.


other than Mithun, srk, salman, I didn't catch what other actors varun was supposed to mimic?

He didn't like a bit ..no good aspects at all. Meaning it must be really bad. Basically, dialogues writers seem to be making same 90's cheap dialogues, no modifications according to today's time at all.

there is slapstick humor too that is very single screenish

all the actors in the movie have very attractive screen presence , they just needed a better screenplay, script, editing, more depth.


it actually is worth a watch and I will see the old one too now, because I don't remember it to see what the difference is

the movie needed more songs. they are so good

it needed to be like hahk in David Dhawan style

tell me you didn't smile at quite a few jokes and scenes? or with the songs?

I can't think of a recent movie that I have wanted to watch or watched that did that.

so ghar bhaite ye movie if nothing to do, it's worth a watch

I would still go watch it on screen even though I've seen it.

I had more expectations but after seeing the reviews, I had none, so I really did smile through the 2 hours and wanted it to be longer.

hahaha, kitne paise diye varun aur david ne? Yeh aadmi bikhao hain judge saab, jk


seriously this movie is so bad specially the leads. sara doesn't deserve a single movie. farhad samjhi is a d grade writer, who's giving him movies and why? his dialogues are puke worthy.


varun is not even 1% of govinda, all he does is mimic him. kaha se laate hain itna confidence to do such overacting? oh yes audience is chuttiya nah so sab chalta hain.


sara was making same faces like in LAK, tum mujhe tang karne lage ho, yes karne lage ho ab baksh do hamein.

Why would I even smile when I could literally compare Varun and Govinda's scenes in my mind since almost EVERY scene was copy pasted? I could do a comparison for every shot and make a 10 page thread on IF.

Even the songs, I could compare the originals in my head. It seemed like a parody, not a remake.

I only watched it coz my buddy Maroony asked me to. And I did not watch it for the sake of comparison, but subconsciously I did as everything for replicated. Looks like they saw the original some 1000 times before making this one, uska hangover tha.

But you've been enjoying everything about this film since day 1 so you'll never understand what I am saying.
