Deewane Huye Paagal

If you haven't watched 'There's Something About Marry' then you might enjoy this lame movie .... Lame because every joke is lifted directly off 'Something About Marry'.

Seems like nothing original is left in Indian film industry (or may be very little). Stay away from this piece of junk, watch 'There's Something About Marry' and you'll laugh throughout the movie. After watching the original you can watch 'DHP' just to compare how cheesy it is!! Its sad to see that good actors like OM Puri are working in such movies. As far as other actors are concerned they are ordinary actors not like Amir or Shahrukh who like to work in quality movies only.

Each and every character shines in their role except for Vivek oberoi . He should have been not in this movie , his first 4-5 mins were the worst part of the movie .

PERFORMANCES: Akshay,Paresh,and Sunil are excellent in their roles.But , Shahid hasn't much to do and Rimi also. In supporting cast there is Johny Lever( not really funny),OmPuri ,but they are not funny.DIRECTION and STORY: After Awara Paagal Deewana(2002) Vikram Bhatt's direction is average this time but he handles the weak story well.Story is not new but have good comic elements. FINAL VERDICT: If you have watched Awara Paagal Deewana ,watch this one also for good entertainment. BEST SCENES:(1) watch out for the first meeting of Sunil and Paresh in film you will guaranteed a laugh.(2) watch where Akshay tells Shahid about Rimi's marriage.

I really loved this movie in my childhood but when I saw THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MARY it seemed Dull. I saw There is something about mary very late but I liked there is something about mary much better. Action sequence has been given in the climax in this movie, which I have not liked from the beginning, the only good thing in this film is the jodi of Akshay and Vijay Raj. If we compare Shahid Kapoor's character of deewane huye pagal with Ben Stiller's character of 'there is something about mary', then Shahid's role seems very small, doesn't it seem that his role is main. But i really loved the chemistry between Akshay & Vijay that's why i giving this a 5 star.

Based on the 1998 American cult movie 'There's Something About Mary', Vikram Bhatt's 'Deewane Huye Paagal' is a silly film, that doesn't pay the correct homage to the film it adores.

Remember Ben Stiller sterling performance in 'There's Something About Mary', Diaz's charm, the witty dialog placed wonderfully in the screenplay and super direction. Sadly, 'Deewane Huye Paagal' is a letdown by very silly jokes, characters, dialog and mediocre direction.

The film begins ably, but loses energy 60-minutes in the film. The culmination is the biggest downer. It's plain bad. Bhatt is a pro when it comes to making Horror films, and after watching this film, your assured that Comedy isn't his favorite dish.

In the acting department, Shahid Kapoor is mechanical. One could've never imagined that he would transform into a caliber that would even nod a film like 'Kaminey' and perform superbly. An actor who has taken Giant Strides! Akshay Kumar is over-the-top, but that's the demand of the character. Sunil Shetty is good. Rimi Sen looks stunning and plays her part nicely. Paresh Rawal hams. Johnny Lever is his usual self. Vijay Raaz stands out, a true scene-stealer. Vivek Oberoi's interpretation of a Narrator is an eye-sore.

On the whole, not much left to talk about. Verdict: Strictly Average!
