Deewane Huye Paagal (2005)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

PERFORMANCES: Akshay,Paresh,and Sunil are excellent in their roles.But , Shahid hasn't much to do and Rimi also. In supporting cast there is Johny Lever( not really funny),OmPuri ,but they are not funny.DIRECTION and STORY: After Awara Paagal Deewana(2002) Vikram Bhatt's direction is average this time but he handles the weak story well.Story is not new but have good comic elements. FINAL VERDICT: If you have watched Awara Paagal Deewana ,watch this one also for good entertainment. BEST SCENES:(1) watch out for the first meeting of Sunil and Paresh in film you will guaranteed a laugh.(2) watch where Akshay tells Shahid about Rimi's marriage.

After the success of APD, The team Akshay, Suneil, Aftab(cameo), Paresh Rawal, Music Director Anu Malik, Producer Firoz Nadiadwala and Director return with Deewane Huye Paagal. The film is a remake of There's Something About Mary(1998) which is a cult comedy and very famous in Hollywood, In fact earlier it was remade in Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat(2001) by Rajiv Rai but he changed it into a romantic film and it flopped, Vikram Bhatt however keeps it a comedy. Vikram Bhatt is known to make remakes, his most films were remakes. The film released in 2005 just few weeks after the success of GARAM MASALA when Akshay Kumar's comedies were successful but surprisingly it failed to work. Perhaps the promotions gave people an indication that it was an out n out comedy but because it was a romantic comedy it didn't work? The film starts off on a slow note, the initial scenes are hardly that good and the irritating narration of Vivek Oberoi is painful, The fun starts once Akshay is introduced. Compared to that film, Here Vikram Bhatt adds lot of action, more slapstick comedy and song and dance. There are some scenes copied same to same like the dog scenes which are not too funny in recreation, There also add a new character of Paresh Rawal,Johny Lever which weren't there in the original. Some scenes are funny like Akshay's escapades, The scene when the truth is revealed of characters and the chaos But the added subplot of Suresh Menon, Om Puri doesn't really evoke mirth In fact the comedy at several portions is too slapsticky and the ending focuses more on action like APD and the end just like the original but more overdone is okay.Direction by Vikram Bhatt is good Music by Anu Malik is good, Chakle Chakle which is a copy of an English song is okay, It's sung by Anu Malik and he is good Anu Malik also lends his voice for Mere Jaane Jigar and sings superbly The best song is Aisi Umar MeinAkshay Kumar dominates the show, Unlike in APD where Paresh dominated He does a superb job in a comic role, Those days Akshay Kumar's comic bone was getting utilised a lot after the success of MSK and Garam Masala. Shahid Kapur is decent but is mostly overshadowed by others. Rimii Sen is annoyingly dubbed and doesn't look good, blame it on her make up and all she doesn't look fit for the role, but her acting is okay Suneil Shetty overdoes his walking to add to the fun of the character but he does provide some funny moments. Paresh Rawal gets some funny scenes but it's nothing great unlike in APD. Johny Lever is funny, but irritates at times Suresh Menon annoys, Om Puri is as usual, Supriya is funny Asrani and other sre okay

my title says it all. This movie is funny and good to pass time with but the constant rips of S.A.M keep u turned off. Hollywood need to start suing Bollywood for all its rip off even if those rips and originals both suck. "Akshay Kumar has returned back to some really good acting after a terrible mess in Garam Masala. Paresh Rawal is well used in this film, along with some pretty good scenes from Sunil Shetty, Johnny Lever and other members of the film." is true as said by other user also true is was said about "SUNIEL SHETTY WAS AMAZING LIKE PARESH RAWAL. HE MOVES HIS THAT NO ONE CAN MOVE BODY LIKE HE DID. THAT WHY HE IS A MACHO MAN OF BOLLYWOOD AND KING OF TOP ACTION." also written by other user I'm doing this to make up the stupid 10 line rule complete BS.

If you haven't watched 'There's something about Mary', you might enjoy the story of the movie. Only the 'scientist' variable is an added component to the story.Akshay was too irritating after the first 15 minutes of his intro. But I was impressed with Johnny Lever's comedy rather than Paresh Rawal.There are too much off unnecessary stunts in the movie, which is plainly meant to show off and does not add anything to the movie scenario.But I was impressed that they did not take a complete rip off of the original movie, but made a few stitches in the movie.
