Triple AAA rating for movie and coincidentally, the abbreviations are also AAA!
OK, this is weird?everyone on MS loves this movie yet, only two reviews have actually been written solely on the movie?so I thought that maybe I should have a shot at it.
Director: Rajkumar Santoshi
Meet Amar (Amir Khan), his dad (Deven Verma) owns a barber?s shop and feeds and clothes him adequately?yet, Amar is not satisfied, as he believes himself to be a diamond that needs discovery. One day, he finds his jeweler?Raveena Bajaj (Hamara Bajaj!) a daughter of a rich business tycoon from London. He sets on a mission to acquire her love. What?s his first step? Sell his dad?s shop when his dad?s out of town!
Meet Prem (Salman Khan!!!!), his dad (Jagdeep) owns a tailor shop and also feeds him and provides shelter, except Prem has his sights set on the Film Industry which his ?trusty? (fraudulent) buddy Johnny (Mehmood!) from ?Wah Wah Studios? (?Wow Wow Studios) will ?help? in realising this dream. He also learns of Raveena Bajaj arriving in India in the search for a suitable groom. Johnny convinces Prem to go and only come back when he has Raveena trapped (?Jaise Maine Tumko Fasaya?, ?Like I have you trapped?). However, he has to sell his dad?s shop AND his dad?s house?why both? He has to give half of it to Johnny who will then ?work? on the script!
Anyway, both Prem and Amar meet on the bus going to Ooty. Both try and outdo the other?one ?owns? a Chaudhry & Sons, whilst the other ?owns? a Mehta Textiles?or that one guesses that the other?s jacket is from America but the other corrects him and explains to him that he got his jacket from New York?lol?
Then they land in jail?well ok, only Amar does?for fighting on the streets (this occurs when both find out each other?s mission)?Prem outdoes Amar here?quite weird since Prem is meant to be the FOOL and Amar is meant to be the smart one!
They then spend the night at a motel where the owner is a miser?for example, you are not allowed to turn the lights on after dark and when Amar questions this and goes
?Main Kapre kaise badluun ga???
(?How am I meant to get changed then??)
?the owner replies back with
?Kyun? Kissi ko dekhna dikhna hai kya???
(?Why? do you want to show everyone or something??)?lol?
There?s more!
They finally get to Raveena?s place and ?convince? all the other hopefuls to get lost?except their plan is foiled and Prem ends up being beaten due to Amar. After this though, Amar still manages to be the first one to try to woo Raveena, by cheating of course! Tails you lose, Heads I win!
He finally ends up in her place?BUT Prem isn?t far behind!
What happens next?! Please watch this movie to find out!
See, where I have ended is not even near the interval! Yeps! But there?s too much to include which I cannot?so I?ll just go on to the memorable scenes and dialogues, even though most of the movie is full of these!
Prem is trying to explain to his father that he can clearly see his destiny
Prem- ?Pitaji, mujhe meri manzil saaf dikhayi deti hai?
Dad- ?Aage Police Chaunki hai, or uske peeche Shaan(?) Ghaat, Kaunsi Manzil Hai Beta??
(Prem- ?Father, I can clearly see my destiny?
Dad- ?Well, in front of us is the Police Station and behind that is the grave yard, What is your destiny then son??)
Amar with his father where he?s trying to explain on why his dad is the best
Amar- ?Aap itne mahan hai, kyunki aap Amar ke baap hain?.Log aapko kehenge, who dekho Amar ka baap ja raha ha!?
Dad- ?Police bhi yehi kahegi, who dekho Amar ka baap ja raha hai!?
(Amar- ?Dad, the reason why you?re so wonderful is because you?re Amar?s dad?people will soon recognise you as Amar?s dad!?
Dad- ?Yeh, and the Police will also recognise me as Amar?s dad!?)
Amir Khan?s red shoes and Salman Khan?s blue cap in the song ?Do Mastane?
All the scenes where Prem pretends to be Doctor Prem Khurana, Iss Dhandhe ka bahut puraana?and where he takes out all the tools that a carpenter might use?feeds ?Tilu? (Amir) the worst food ever imaginable and also, injects him an injection only fit for horses!
Crime Master Gogo (Shakti Kapoor) and his scenes?.
?Aankhen nikal kar gotiya khelunga!?
(?I?ll notch your eyes and play ?em like marbles!?)
?Khaandani Chor hu, kuch to churake jaayunga!?
(?I?m a thief by tradition thus, I?ll have to steal something!?)
The scene where the gun explodes in Teja?s (Paresh Rawal) face?
?Kiske Mamma ki gun?!?!?
All the other scenes involving Teja?s kidnapping of Ram and of course Amar and Prem?s reactions, actions and mistakes?especially the one where Prem is meant to keep quiet about the kidnapping?but can?t keep his mouth shut!
The end scene?Prem gets hold of the gun?Amar gets all hyped?Prem realises there?s no bullet?so?he says it out loud?.ahahaha?
The many twists and turns keep you laughing till the credits?there?s mistaken identity, romance, action, comedy, drama?by-the-way?there are MORE funny scenes and dialogues except I was running out of space?the whole movie?s script should be written here?.
You?ll be in for a surprise??Woh woh nahi hai, tum tum nahi ho, main main nahi hu??!?
DO watch this movie!!!
Direction is superb!!!! Rajkumar Santoshi ji?I salute you!
Music and Lyrics?..aaahhhh?.PERFECT!!
Choreography is cool?especially in the song ?Dil Mera Dhak Dhak Dole??
Dialogues are?I have no words for them?(pun intended)?.?Rabbit!?
Anyways, what else is there? Oh yeh, the actresses?Raveena Tondon and Karishma Kapoor both acted well?very naïve and lost.
I can?t say anymore?. Wonderful movie?.
a MUST see!
Andaz Apna Apna?
Can you guess who the real Raveena is? Can you guess who the real Teja is? Moreover, can you guess who gets the rich girl? Oh and can you guess what happens to the diamonds??
