User Reviews

Theatre play

This is one film i still wonder what it was for?

The film tries to show A male chauvinism society but sadly the situations are overtly funny suddenly and suddenly dramatic and then too theatrical which gets boring

The comedy scenes are at times funny especially the Johny Lever portions and some more and all scenes involving Govinda, in fact Govinda saves the film by providing several hilarious scenes Watch it for him

Direction is old fashioned and looks like a stage play Music is okay some songs are nice

Amongst actors Chandrachur Singh looks overweight and is too theatrical and falls flat Sad from a talented actor like him Tabu too stumbles in her delivery and gets painful Ketki Dave repeats her TV act and does provide some funny scenes with Johny Johny Lever is awesome in his role though he does overdo it many times yet it works with his character He is another scene stealer Vinay Anand looks like a pale imitation of his uncle Govinda and is bad Isha is nothing great Govinda saves the day with his funny monologues and performance he is outstanding Juhi Chawla is his perfect partner in this Amongst rest Shakti Kapoor is nothing great Sayaji Shinde provides great comedy in his small role while rest are okay
