Paresh Rawal role Baburao ganpatrao apte became a iconic character

This movie is very hilarious and entertaining! It has great dialogue, great comic sequences, great entertainment and action, and great performances, most notably Paresh Rawal. He has immortalized the character of Baburao as one of the most remembered Bollywood characters of all-time. He is excellent and hilarious, and his timing is great. Akshay Kumar and Sunil Shetty do great as well, and they also did great comedy. Tabu was sort of wasted in her short role however. The script is great and iconic; so many of the dialogues like "Kaun Devi Prasad?" have become famous and remembered. Honestly, the only thing that threw me off was the music; it wasn't too good; only "Jab Bhi Koi Haseena" stood out. The direction was also pretty good; this film is what gave Priyadarshan a big name. But besides that, if your'e looking for a great time, this film gives you that for sure.

I love love love this movie and have watched it several times, and each time I laugh out loudly. Its one of those classic comedies that you can watch over and over and appreciate even more for the lack of truly funny movies in this genre. The comedy is completely slapstick, but Paresh Rawal, Akshay Kumar, and Sunil Shetty make it work so well. This is where Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar's comedy partnership commenced, and they have worked in more successful comedies.The story is about three men who have an opportunity to con someone, and everything ends well. I highly recommend it, but be prepared for slapstick comedy. Om Puri is also added to the mix and is funny as well. Om and Paresh make a good pair too.

I just saw the movie for the twelfth time, and my ribs are still cracking from laughter.Hera Pheri is an amazing movie. Typical Priyadarshan movie - a scan mishandled by a bunch of novices leading to a comedy of errors, the movie has excellent comic timing and witty one-liners. Without giving away the plot, I can mention few instances, for instance when Sunil Shetty gives the kidnapping threat - "I'll cut your dog to pieces and feed it to your granddaughter" (It's the other way round - granddaughter was to be killed in the threat"Jokes apart, the movie has an excellent depiction of the problems faced by the urban poor - those who flock to the cities in search of opportunities, the bonds of friendships among the people in small communities, bureaucratic mess and a load of others, lending a humane side to the comedy The performances are good, particularly Paresh Rawal, the crude garage owner with a heart of gold. Music, thankfully, takes a backdrop in the movie, and the romantic portions (a bane on Bollywood movies) are limited to a few. Rating: ******** and a big thumbs up to Priyadarshan. All in all, a great family movie (the few crude alcoholic jokes not- withstanding), one that you would doubtlessly enjoy many times over.
