Do Knot Disturb

Expectations from a David-Dhawan-Govinda film are huge, as they have given us true classics in the past. Their latest offering 'Do Knot Disturb' is easily their weakest fare together.

There is no script at all, yet the first hr somehow entertains. But the second hr, is boring, irritating & REALLY loud. It becomes a complete mess.

Acting is no better either; Govinda, Lara Dutta & Sushmita Sen ham. Govinda's female voice imitation is another sore point. Lara & Sushmita overact like never before. Ritesh is alright. Sohail Khan doesn't work. Manoj Phawa & Rajpal Yadav are fantastic; these 2 steal the show. Ranvir Shorey is wasted; plus the role of his twin is horrible. Himani Shivpuri, Satish Kaushik, Rituparna & Ali Asgar are average.

On the whole, don't disturb these people... and not even yourself!

I just finished watching "Do Not Disturb", and I have to say, it was an incredible cinematic experience from start to finish!

The storyline was captivating, and the characters were so well-developed. I found myself emotionally invested in their journeys, and the performances by the cast were top-notch. "Cem Yilmaz · Ahsen Eroglu · Özge Özberk · Nilperi Sahinkaya · Zafer Algöz · Bülent Sakrak · Celal Kadri Kinoglu · Aziz Yanik" gave an outstanding performance in their role; their portrayal was both moving and convincing.

The visuals in this movie were simply breathtaking. The cinematography and special effects were masterfully done, creating a visually stunning world that immersed me in the story. The attention to detail in the set design and costumes added to the overall atmosphere and authenticity of the film.

The pacing was just right, keeping me engaged throughout. The director's choice of music also deserves praise; the soundtrack complemented the scenes perfectly and added to the overall impact of the movie.

What I particularly appreciated about "Do Not Disturb" was its thought-provoking themes. It left me with a lot to ponder on long after the credits rolled.

"Do Not Disturb" is a must-watch for any movie enthusiast. It combines outstanding performances, stunning visuals, and a compelling story that will stay with you. I highly recommend it!

The entire unit should be made to stand in line for not doing a reality check on David Dhawan that the basic premise of "Do Knot Disturb" resembles "Golmaal Returns". In order to ward off suspecting wife, the husband hires a guy who is supposed to pretend the other woman's lover thereby setting off a chain of hilarious events.

I am surprised how established names like Sushmita Sen, Lara Dutta, Ritesh Deshmukh, Ranvir Shorey have decided to be a part of the project. Even Rituparna Sengupta - oh no! Sohail Khan is getting type-casted into the slot of Manoj Pahwa & Rajpal Yadav. He better watch out (restraint is the keyword!).

David's pairing with Govinda has always resulted in comedy that can be termed, if I dare say "cheap". The formula did work in some part of history but surely not any more. And needless to say Govinda gets unleashed and goes Over-the-top to the point of irritation.

Strictly not advised even for hard-core Govinda fans!

'Do Knot Disturb' is one of the worst movie I've seen recently. David Dhawan has a reputation of ripping off other films and his movies look overtly glossy, colourful and very tacky. 'Do Knot Disturb' is no different at all. I suppose Bollywood has run out of Hollywood movies to copy so now they have started copying French movies. 'Do Knot Disturb' rips off 'La Doublure'. 'La Doublure' itself was by no means a great movie but it looked classy and made me laugh at times. 'Do Knot Disturb' can only be compared to a cheap knockoffs that nobody wants to buy. It's cringeworthy from start to finish. However, since I heard that it starred Sushmita Sen and Rituparna Sengupta, I thought there might be something to look forward to. I wasn't aware of the rest of the cast. Sengupta is wasted in a miniscule role and Sen, what was she thinking when she signed on for this? Govinda and Ranvir Shorey are at their worst. I've never thought of Deshmukh as a great actor but here he achieves a new level of crappiness. Sohail Khan is among the worst actor ever and he's never even done a passable movie let alone good. I should have checked out the cast list beforehand, then I would have avoided this.

As a Hungarian, I was very pleased to see that for once Bollywood is not copying a Hollywood hit, but a little known but very funny Hungarian one!!! What a surprise. And indeed, it is virtually a carbon copy of 'A miniszter félrelép' but with added Bollywood songs, extra unnecessary scripting, chaotic direction, etc. Do Knot Disturb actually manages to ruin the funniness of an otherwise great story.

The reviews of Do Knot Disturb are deservedly negative, however to quote just one reviewer of 'A miniszter félrelép' "it's the best comedy i have seen in a decade. Charming slapstick, shades of Chaplin, witty dialogue and hilarious twists and turns." So people if you went to see Do Knot Disturb with these expectations but came away disappointed, please find yourself a subtitled copy of 'A miniszter félrelép' and you will be endlessly entertained.
