This film gets a low rating from me not only because it was bad, but also because it seemed promising. You have a cast of Govinda and Sanjay Dutt, your music is by Shankar Mahadevan, and yet if you are unable to make a good movie, then whose fault is it exactly?
I don't have a problem with the mindless Govinda movies. I really like Coolie No. 1, Rajaji, Bade Miya Chote Miya and Maharaja. But this one is hideous to new levels. I didn't feel like laughing even once. The jokes aren't funny, their way of speaking is annoying, people don't react even remotely close to how they should in real life, even the music is bad in spite of being composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and this is just a badly done generic Bollywood rom-com from the 90's.
It's a very forgettable movie that has only gained good reviews because of nostalgia. But that's like Batman and Robin getting good reviews for the same reason. Most of the people rating it nicely were a bunch of toddlers back when it came. Obviously they will like it. But by today's standards this is just a torture to watch.
