From PARTNER to HEYY BABY, seems that Comedy films are the only way to success. Which brings us to our next case: DHAMAAL. Indra Kumar directs this wacky comic laughathon that will leave you all in splits. Right from the word, "go" the situations, the humor, the funda, everything seems to gel out well, therefore giving the right prescription to humor.
To sum it up: DHAMAAL suceeds in giving you the laugh treatment you awaited for all the time. Ek dum jhakass seems more like it.
4 bums [Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Aasish Chaudhary, and Javed Jaffery] are idiots in life, until they meet up with a dying man [Prem Chopra] who assists them in the secret of the burial of 10 crores in a resort in Goa. Along the way, they meet up with selfish people [Sanjay Dutt], [Asrani] and the Baba singh, who also in pursuit of the money. The rest of the story then unfolds.
While the first thought from the film deviates the plot from Priyadarshan's MALAMAAL WEEKLY, it's actually directly lifted from videshi hit RAT RACE [2001]. Nevertheless, the scenes with Sanjay and the bus kids are hilarious while the portions with Aasish Chaudhary are unbelievable. These guys know how to act in elan!
However, all credit must go to Javed Jaffery. Probably one of the outstanding peformers after Tusharr Kapoor's dumb act in GOLMAAL (2006). Second comes Aasish Choudhary for his mimicry, then Riteish and Arshad. Sanjay the rest are competent and make their presence felt.
On the whole, DHAMAAL is time-pass paisa vasool entertainment. Go watch it for laughs!
