When Prithviraj arrives at the scene, Ravi says Abbas's name as Abhishek Bachchan to avoid religious controversies of a temple being broken open by a Muslim. Prithviraj hires Abhishek Bachchan Abbas and is happy with his work, but Ravi and his friends have to come up with a new plan when Prithviraj spots Abbas celebrating Eid as a Muslim.
Abbas and the others convince Prithviraj that the one celebrating Eid was actually 'Abbas', an effeminate man and classical Kathak dancer. The more Abbas tries to manage his dual life without letting Prithviraj know, the more he has to lie to cover up other lies; this forms the crux of the story. We came from them. They will come for us. Rated PG for sequences of action violence, thematic elements and brief mild language. Did you know Edit. Trivia Genelia D'Souza was signed for the film but opted out.
Goofs Shastri introduces about his son Ravi to Abbas and Sania before he comes as if they don't know him. However when Ravi comes, he says he has visited Abbas's and Sania's home many times and greets them. User reviews 37 Review. Top review. Hope this trash from a Hit director stops the avoidable trend of remaking the Cult Classics of Hindi Cinema.
When a director is back after delivering a fabulous string of 4 big blockbusters in a row, then it's indeed going to be a hugely stressful event for him undoubtedly. Because not only the viewers but the industry also is bound to expect a lot from his project keeping in mind the excellent track record of his successes. And when further, the same director is back with a remake of one of the Top 10 All Time Favourite Comedies of Indian Cinema then obviously the expectations are going to reach sky high.
In fact this very intelligent step of the director remains the only plus point going in his favour, as there are not many in this world including myself who would appreciate seeing an updated revised version of that incomparable original classic having a tremendous repeat value of itself. On a positive note, this is exactly how it should be done as there is no way that any director can re-live a classic film like GOLMAAL after more than 3 decades with the same elegance.
So though we have the same plot being worked upon here, still Rohit tries to rope in some new characters, more comic mannerisms and few more forcibly funny sequences to make his BOL BACHCHAN a completely fresh film based on a famous masterpiece. But unfortunately, the sad part of all this hard work done by the director and his team is that they hugely fail in the process and their newly added ingredients in the re-written script of GOLMAAL simply do not work or fall flat.
In other words, the last 20 minutes of the film, even make you wonder that Is this really a Rohit Shetty film running on the screen? Moreover, the disappointment doesn't stop on the writing and execution level only as all the actors in it also remain a big let-down throughout which was not at all expected in a film by the director, who is known to have the pulse of his audience.
BB starts off unlike a comedy and surprisingly there is no great funny stuff to be enjoyed in its opening 40 minutes. With such an uninteresting start, all the high spirits of watching it actually turn negative and this continues till the intermission working against all the expectations from the Hit team of Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgan.
In the second half too, the director tries to add more elements than required which actually result in a poor mess. Particularly the inclusion of a gay character in the script remains the weakest part of the film as neither the actor Abhishek nor his director are able to handle it well. Frankly I neither could laugh on the English dialogues of Ajay nor on the weird kind of Kathak dancing of Abhishek which was really awful.
Some of the humour is culturally specific and might go over the heads of younger viewers, who might also find the movie too long. The movie is in Hindi with English subtitles and heavily accented English.
This might also present problems for younger viewers. Values in this movie that you could reinforce with your children include selflessness. For example, Abbas risks his own life and safety to rescue a small boy from drowning.
You could also talk about the many cultural differences between western culture and Indian culture and lifestyles as shown in the movie. Skip to content Skip to navigation. Sexual references This movie has some low-level sexual references and innuendo, which are meant to be funny. Alcohol, drugs and other substances None of concern Nudity and sexual activity This movie has some nudity and sexual activity. The head of this village is the able-bodied-but-dim-witted Prithviraj Raghuvanshi Ajay Devgan , a pehalwan who massacres the English language each time he opens his mouth, and who repeatedly claims to have an allergy to liars.
To cover up that one lie, Abbas inevitably ends up concocting more… He persuades a local mujra dancer Archana Puran Singh to pretend to be his mum, and he even invents a gay twin brother — sans moustache — who as it turns out, is promptly hired by Prithviraj as a kathak teacher for his sister Radhika Prachi Desai.
Bol Bachchan plods on for 2 hours and 30 minutes, and huge portions of the film are yawn-inducing. Archana Puran Singh gets some nice scenes to show off her comic chops, the writers throw in memorable punchlines from popular Amitabh Bachchan-starrers in all the right places, and Abhishek Bachchan loses much of his stiffness while playing a part or two that he seems to be actually enjoying.
The women in this film have precious little to do, but Ajay Devgan sportingly plays along as the knucklehead leader of the village. Shetty, who came up with some clever comic sketches particularly in his first and third Golmaal films, appears to be cashing in on past glory with this dull rehash of his successful work.
