Funny... Govinda Funny
ViniB1 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Govinda movies are always funny. Even if they are a bit vulgar. Sure its no Dulhe Raja, but the combination Govinda, Raveena and Kader Khan was generates enough laughter and box-office success to consider it as a non-flop.

The acting of friends - Harish and whats-his-name - and their girlfriends was ridiculous as is expected of Hindi film extras focusing all the attention of the lead actor and "his" story.

The side story about Gopi's Brother and Sandhya's father was completely unnecessary, but every Bollywood movie has to have a villain too, if no other reason than just the climactic fight.

Crap
silvan-desouza18 December 2009
By the tradition of No.1 films Aunty No.1 was another film in No.1 category sadly everything of the film is anything but No.1

The film is another film wherein the hero dresses up like a woman Surprisingly, another film CHACHI 420 released in the same year which was much better

This movie is awful

Kirti Kumar also mixes a villain plot of Raza Murad who disguises himself as his mute brother(dual role) who is kidnapped by him There is another lame sub plot of Reema Lagoo(the real Rani Saiba) and an affair with the much older Saeed Jaffrey

The whole film is boring, suddenly shifting from a comedy to a serious scene The film pales compared to HERO No.1, COOLIE No.1 which where nothing outstanding but were good comedies

The only notable thing is Govinda dressing like a girl which too pales front of CHACHI 420

Direction by Kirti Kumar is bad Music is okay

Amongst actors Govinda does his usual stuff though he must be praised for carrying off the role of a woman well Harish and the other looser are bad Kiran Grover and the other actress is just okay Amongst supporting actors Kader Khan is boring to watch here, Saeed Jaffrey hams as usual Reema Lagoo is okay Raza Murad is as usual, Satish Kaushik is funny, Sadashiv Amrapurkar is okay Bindu is alright too

Quitessential Govida

Must see if even you remotely like Govinda and his irreverent brand of comedy.

The year is 1998, Govinda/Kader Khan partnership is in sublime form, the irreverence of Govinda at its peak, each scene of the movie is filled with effervescence of Govinda ... GOVINDA GOVINDA GOVINDA

Shows the irreverence what we are missing this day and age ...I repeat irreverence because Govinda's spontaneity is unmatched ... only a city like Mumbai could have bred a street smart actor like Govinda

Tempted to say if you're NOT a 90's kid growing up north of Deccan , you just might not get the brilliance of peak Govinda which is evident in this movie.

Legend Govinda😍

Govinda is a living legend, he is one of the most versatile actors of 90's. The way he carries out the role of a female and the dance on Aunty no.1 song is just outstanding. No one could have done it better than him. All his 90's films feel like new even in 2024. Only Krushna can act and dance like his uncle Govinda others cannot. Most dynamic, versatile, handsome, talented, great actor of all generations Govinda the Great. I am watching this movie in 2024 and still enjoying his dance and his super hit acting. Legendary actor and none can replace him. No words to describe his acting and character.
