Strictly for Deol fans
12 June 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Deols were a saleable name, Dharam was a hot name in 70s and early 80s but then he started doing rubbish films in 1990s, even in his 60's he still played the hero and made trash films like Policewala Gunda.He cameback in 2004 and gave some hit films like Apne and APD mostly with his family. Sunny Deol was a big star in 90s but then his films got outdated, he too got a hit after ages with Yamla Pagla Deewana which is his only hit post Gadar perhaps in this millennium and perhaps some few small average runners. Bobby Deol hardly gave any hits in his career except Humraaz, Soldier and a few more. Nowdays all 3 Deols mostly work together only. Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 as all know has no connection with part 1 just the characters are the same. This time the film is set in London, and shot lavishly Director Sangeeth Sivan after crap films like Apna Sapna Money Money(2006) follows the same formula of those type films. The film has the same plot and tries very hard to make you laugh. The film has scenes which make you wonder which era do this writers belong? Sunny Deol's car starting on it's own? An ape who does so much of stuff? The climax is the most idiotic one has witnessed since long time. In the original Sunny shouted and threw people in air but here he also punches Sumo Wrestlers and Ninjas. The film does have a few redeeming scenes like Sunny Deol's drunk scene, or a few scenes between Bobby, Sunny and Dharam

Direction by Sangeeth Sivan who debutted with Zor(1997) a flop starring Sunny Deol and then came back with Kya Kool hai Hum which was at least quite funny and then ASMM which was terrible is nothing great here. Music is okay

Sunny Deol shows he has good comic timing and does his best though he is getting typecast now and should do some challenging stuff, as he is cross 50+ Dharmendra looks jaded but shows he still has the talent Bobby Deol supports the trio well Neha Sharma and Kristina do nothing much but are okay Annu Kapoor with a wig and a fake English accent is okay too Anupam Kher looks idiotic in his stupid role even Johny lever's mimicry of Srk as DON lacks the punch,He and Sucheta are nothing great
