Easily among the worst films I've seen
8 May 2020
When Raja and his Mama were at the gym, Vicky was trying to rape Shalu while everyone was just watching. Raja was not allowed to fight with anyone before 12 am. So, he sees everything for two minutes, and just when clock ticked 12, he beats Vicky and partners alone. This single scene defines the film, which can be described at best as plain stupidity.

Story: Raja(Akshay Kumar) trusts his luck that he is destined to become a king(i.e, rich) and he doesn't even need to work before that. Chanda Mama(Satish Kaushik) is the one who made him believe so. Shaalu(Juhi Chawla), for some reason, wants to marry this idiot but her father Badri Prasad(Kader Khan) wants a hard working man as his son-in-law. On other hand, Chanda mama advices Raja to stay away from girls. Will Shaalu be able to convince her father, Raja and Chanda Mama?

I don't feel that a film has to be completely logical but this one is devoid of any. The actions of all the characters at every time are plain stupid. No girl will ever love a boy who is hostile towards everyone, treats her father badly and is so rude. The story gets more stupid as it progresses. Both of them were taking marriage very lightly. The way he gets money is stupid, and so is the ending.

The songs not good enough, and are distracting. A special mention for, "Jab tak rahega samose mein aloo",like what they were upto. Who wrote the lyrics?

I used to enjoy it as a kid. So, it's my personal bias which kept me from giving it the lowest possible score. Or maybe because the meassage they wanted to convey is good.
