Must Watch Movie...Watch it for Dharmendra

First it was Carry On Jatta, then Lucky Di Unlucky Story and Bhaji In Problem, and now Double Di Trouble. Smeep Kang is one director who is reshaping the market for Punjabi cinema with his quirky stories. Interestingly, this time he has chosen William Shakespeare as his source of inspiration. One of Shakespeare's most read and critically analysed plays The Comedy of Errors forms the base of Double Di Trouble (DDT).

STORY:- Ajit Singh (Dharmendra) and Fateh Singh (Gippy Grewal) come to Chandigarh in connection with a court case without realising that their lookalikes - Manjit and Ekom - also live in the same city. Manjit's wife (Poonam Dhillon) wants a diamond ring as her marriage anniversary present and gets into a huge fight with her husband over the issue. Manjit vows to not come back home without a ring, but things take an unexpected turn when he is asked money for a ring which he has not even received. You got it. It's more of Angoor than The Comedy of Errors. Only this Punjabi version replaces the master-servant concept with a father-son duo.

WATCH OR NOT:- The Comedy of Errors is not known for its in-depth conflict and it solely relies on quick witted reaction dialogues and hilarious situations. DDT does exactly this, and surprisingly it doesn't get dirty in the process like usual Punjabi movies. The presence of a veteran like Dharmendra at the helm of affairs helps the film immensely, and Gippy Grewal plays a second foil to him. Their comic timing is good and Dharamendra doesn't overshadow Gippy. Yes, the double role scenes look amateurish but overall DDT manages to tickle the funny bone. so i thing you must enjoy this movie
