Yamla Pagla Deewana

Movie Name: Yamla Pagla Deewana
Genre: Drama, Comedy
Language: Hindi

I recently watched this movie as there were not many others and I was not in a mood to watch any heavy drama.

The plot was simple about an NRI gentleman who comes to India to find his long lost brother and father. How he solves their problems and manages to win their hearts in order to take them back to his mother is the story all about. There is a subplot which involves the love story of his con brother. There are many funny characters which are given small screen space and they are able to maintain freshness in their characters. Movie does not give any message in particular. It is a fun ride. The chemistry between two brothers and Dharam-pa is something to look out for.

This movie is not a tear jerking drama or story full of twists and conceit people but it aims to make you laugh and it is successful in doing the same. There is not much to do for anyone from acting per say. Dharmendra has done well as a loving father and aged con artist. Bobby has done well in his good for nothing role. But the real shining star is Sunny who makes us laugh with his dialogues, action and expressions. Action sequences are way beyond comprehension, so just enjoy them without giving trouble to brain cells. Sunny has made spoof of action sequences from his previous films which make a person to burst in laughter. Music is not particularly melodious but one or two songs will make your feet move.

The only negative point with the movie is its length. The movie could have been much better with lesser number of songs and some editing. If you like Deol-family then go and watch the movie for their superb chemistry. My rating is 3.0/5.0.
