Goofs

In the climax when Aamir tells Crime master Gogo more about his childhood expression, Gogo in a long shot holding a gun on his right hand happily shouts to everyone about what others were thinking about him. A close-up is followed afterwards and it is visibly clear that Gogo is holding the same gun on his left hand without revealing why and how.

Quotes

Amar Manohar: Mr. Gogo! I've been hearing stories about your heroism since childhood! Prem, remember what my mom used to tell me when I refused to go to sleep?
Crime Master Gogo: What was that your mom used to tell you?
Amar Manohar: She used to say, "Son Amar Son Amar... Go to sleep! ELSE..."
Crime Master Gogo: ...else?
Amar Manohar: e... else The great Gogo will come!"

Crazy Credits

Names of actors are spelt with two extra letters-like, Aamir Khhhan and Salllman Khan. This is done because the title of the film is an alliteration of 'A' thrice- AAA (Andaz Apna Apna). Hence, two extra letters in names to make it three.
