Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The original script for the sequel was supposed to be based on lawyers, as a follow up to the doctor story in Munnabhai 1. Raju Hirani was not happy with the script and continued working for 2 years to develop the perfect sequel. Few episodes regarding lawyers were anyway incorporated in this movie. more

Munna Bhai back!!!, 2 September 2006
10/10
Author: python_prince from India

To start of with i didn't had much of expectation on this movie since I assumed that a second series to Munna Bhai might not be good as the original based on my previous experiences. But this movie 'ROCKS' with a different story line all together, still keeping the characters of MunnaBhai(Sanjay Dutt)in place. The crew is pretty much the same from the original except for the heroine Vidya Balan and she does her part in style with others. The chemistry between Munna Bhai and Circuit, whether its comedy or sentiments was handled with beauty by Sanjay Dutt and especially Arshad Warsi. Boman Irani again proves that he can the best for the character given to him. Go watch this movie with less expectations and you will enjoy this weekend comedy treat.. This movie is sure shot a box office hit and movie for every Indian to watch!! Don't miss it because I bet u will come out with the satisfaction of watching an excellent movie with flawless script!! - Mobs
