Double Dhamaal

CAUTION: When you are about to watch this film please don't forget to take a headache tablet. Yes I am not kidding mate. Just one word describes the film in short- "Torture". Pathetic film with bad humor and a rubbish storyline. Too much of mimicry that doesn't connect with the audiences. On the contrary they get bugged watching when it gets repeated again and again. Utter nonsense story . On the plus side lies Satish Kaushik . You,ll definitely enjoy his presence in the film. The first half of the film does include a few scenes that are enjoyable.But post interval is fully on the negative side. Bringing gorillas in between makes matter more worse. Stupidity personified. Talking about the performances, Javed is good,Ritesh is silly,Ashish and Arshad are average. Sanjay Dutt- The biggest disappointment of the film. Another factor that doesn't click is the music of the film. I,ll go for 3 out of 10. Watch Dhammal 1 again instead of watching this one. I bet u,ll enjoy that rather than this silly film.

Double Dhammal ==============

Director :Indra Kumar Music :Anand Raj Anand Starring : Sanjay Dutt, Ritesh Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Javed Jaffery, Ashish Choudhary, Kangna Ranaut and Mallika Sherawat.

Movie Review : 2 Star : Double Dhaamal is NOT Double Dhamaal. ============

the 1st part was executed much better. There are some scenes that make you laugh . But most of the other comedy scenes are double meaning and are loud. There is no new treatment given to the movie.

Indra Kumar was top of the directory during 80's and 90's with his hits like Beta , Dil , Ishq . expectations were high but it didn't worked out in his favor.

Aanand Raj Aanand has given good music. Even he is one of the popular music directors from the 80' 90's like Tridev

Music Review : 3 star : Music is Good . There are some songs which will be diffidently played by DJ's . Good dance numbers. ============

My Fav Pick are :

1. Chak Kudiye by Mikka : Rap and a mixture of Bhangra. 2. Jalebi Bai : Item number by Mallika . everyone is going to compare Jalebi bai with other item number songs like Sheela and munni songs.

There are total of 4 songs

1. Chal Kudie : **** ( 4 star ) Anand Raj Anand & Mika Singh

2. Chal Kudie (Remix): ** ( 2 star ) Anand Raj Anand & Mika Singh

3.Chill Maro **** ( 4 star ) Mika Singh

4.Chill Maro (Remix) **( 2 star ) Mika Singh

5.Jalebi Bai **** ( 4 star ) Ritu Pathak

6.Oye Oye **( 2 star ) Sunidhi Chauhan

7.Oye Oye Remix * ( 1 star ) Sunidhi Chauhan

More information : Don't miss out the 1st part "Dhammal" (2007) also directed by the same directory Indra kumar .

Other Movies directed by Indra Kumar : Beta , Ishq , Dil Music directed by Aanand Raj aanand in other movies : Tridev , Kaante, Major Saab , Musafir , Kaal , no problems etc

horrible movie.i wonder how i managed to stick for 2 hrs 15 min.but there was nothing to offer in this flick. thejokes were rubbish,the plot ,iwonder if there was one. and the worst part of the movie,they scare in the end for the next part.this one was equally bad as the first one was good.so my recommendations don't go for it.it will definitely bound to give you a headache. Talking of performances... the most disappointing was kangana ranaut...it was as if she was picked from some roadside and pushed to act...mallika shehrawat as usual had nothing to offer. sanjay dutt's acting was lame... even riteish deshmukh was a big disappointment. sp i would conclude that this movie is a perfect mixture of bad script worse direction and awful acting...so if u want to see how bad a film can be go for it ....else look out for something else

Double Dhamaal directed by Indra Kumar and a sequel to the sleeper hit Dhamaal does not offer anything double in terms of jokes.

Of course,Double Dhamaal does have its moments but those are very far and few.

Story:- After losing a huge sum to a police officer, Kabir Nayak (Sanjay Dutt); four slackers: Aditya Shrivastav (Arshad Warsi), Boman Contractor (Ashish Chaudhary), Manav Shrivastav (Javed Jaffrey) and Deshbandhu Roy (Ritesh Deshmukh) find themselves unemployed and broke. Then they come upon Kabir, who apparently lives a wealthy lifestyle now along with his wife, Kamini (Mallika Sherawat), and sister, Kiya (Kangan Ranut). They intrude in his life, find out he is having an affair with a woman named Gulabo, and blackmail him into making them partners. They also rope in a gangster-turned-saint, Bata Bhai (Satish Kaushik), into investing in an oil project - but are humiliated and go on the run after finding that Kabir has conned them. With an enraged Bata on their tail, the hapless foursome manage to escape to Macau with the help of a gangster, Mohsin Bhai (Zakir Hussain). It is here they will run into Kabir - who is now the owner of 'Four Jokers' Casino - and make elaborate plans to avenge their humiliation as well as ensure that he winds up alone and penniless.

The direction is average.

The music is good.

The dialogs are good.

The screenplay is half-baked.

The cinematography is good.

Performances:- Sanjay Dutt is very good.Out of the four men,Arshad Warsi steals the show.Ritesh Deshmukh,Ashish Chaudhary and Javed Jaffrey are fine.Mallika Sherawat is subtle.Kangana Ranaut is bad.Satish Kaushik is damn funny.Zakir Hussain is wasted.

Double Dhamaal,may have its moments but still those are few and far.I am giving it a four on ten for the only 'four' gags that made me laugh.

After watching this comic sequel from Indra Kumar, the man who has excelled himself in drama and overdoing things, I had a Deja-Vu kind of the feeling since the experience was pretty much same to that of watching 'Bheja Fry 2' last week. In other words, here too, where the first part was hugely successful due to its copied status taking sequences directly from its various sources, the second part is not anywhere close to that, making an effort to be an original. But on the other hand, the film is not a complete loser and still manages to entertain you in bits and parts.

Taking off from the concluding scenes of DHAMAAL, it revolves around a story in which all the characters try to fool each other with their own planned con-acts. Needless to say that it's a loud and absurd kind of comedy based on some weird but comic writing, made with a single aim to make you laugh. And I really don't mind watching these kinds of movies leaving my brains at home. But, only if they are capable enough to keep me engaged thoroughly with their entertaining inputs. Sadly that's where DOUBLE DHAMAAL falls short and further with a completely no show by Sanjay Dutt (the main magnetic pull in the movie), one walks out felling less served than promised in its promos.

At times the jokes and one liners work well even when they are ridiculously written with double meanings, full of foul language, even featuring Gorillas swinging to a Bollywood Song kissing each other. But the actors, deliver these dialogues in such a way that you don't mind laughing at them whole heartedly, particularly in the sequences featuring the four friends together on the screen. Post interval the pace keeps dropping at various places with some boring and unwanted songs except "Jalebi Bai" which both has a melody and visual value incorporated in it. But other than that it's a completely uninspiring musical score from Anand Raaj Anand, who has returned after a long gap. Visually the film is better than its first part DHAMAAL and Cinematography works fine both in local and foreign locations. The script keeps adding new twists and turns in the story-plot generating more spaces of laughter regularly. Still, somehow the continuous entertaining value is missing in the film and there seems to be an overdose of everything, which as a result leaves you less satisfied in the end. Moreover the film ends quite abruptly and the director looks like so over-confident of his product that he clearly leaves a message indicating towards its third part.

In few words, the best part of the film remains its four Jokers along with Satish Kaushik returning to his old form after a long time. Obviously the best of the four remain Arshad Warsi and Ritesh Deshmukh as per their star status. But this time Ritesh is better than everyone in the film coming up with a superb performance followed by Arshad Warsi with his impeccable timing. However, Arshad posing as a funny Sardar in the second half once again takes the community for a ride which should ideally be a matter of concern for the community leaders. Both Aashish & Javed Jaffery play their roles brilliantly but I felt Javed having a less impactful role than in DHAMAAL. Apart from these four Jokers the next surprise joker is Satish Kaushik who is a treat to watch as the Bhai speaking some hilarious dialogues in the first half, but at the same time Zakhir Hussain as the second Bhai gets wasted.

The biggest disappointment in the movie remains Sanjay Dutt who surprisingly doesn't have a completely comic role in the film as the con-man accompanied by the two ladies. And I really missed watching Sanjay participating in few comedy scenes with the four fools. Mallika Sherawat as Sanjay's lover is just perfect but Kangna looks like a misfit in her role as she tries too hard to bring in some laughs on her own.

Summing up, I can surely say that there is nothing DOUBLE in here in this new DHAMAAL and few may find it even less enjoyable than its original one. Still it can be watched once for its performances by the five jokers (including Satish) but somebody please stop this mad trend of making sequels which don't really justify their own set standards in the past.
