Golmal Returns Review

Golmal ReturnsMovie Review: Golmal Returns; Movie Star Cast: Ajay Devgan, Tusshar Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Amrita Arora, Celina Jaitley, Arshad Warsi and Shreyas Talpade; Director: Rohit Shetty; Rating: **

Golmaal Returns tells the story of Gopal (Devgan) who along with his wife Ekta (Kareena) stays together house along with sister Esha (Amrita) and a dumb brother in law Lucky (Tusshar). Ekta’s is a very suspecting wife whose suspicion habit is further influenced by watching Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji TV serials. One night, Gopal has to spend the night out with a beautiful young lady Mira Nair (Celina) on a yacht due to some unforeseen circumstances. But to avoid any misunderstanding with his wife, he lies to her that he was with his friend Anthony Gonsalves that night. One lie leads to another and Gopal to save his skin has to involve his junior, Laxman (Shreyas) but then a corpse of his office employee is found and the investigating officer happens to be Madhav (Arshad) whom Gopal hates. All this leads to a huge chaos where everyone is busy hiding something and ending up lying to one another to avoid further problems!

It needs to be made clear that the film is not actually a sequel of the hit comic caper Golmaal (2006) by the same team. It just has the same four main protagonists of the original in a different situation. Shreyas comes in place of Sharman Joshi though. Golmaal Returns aims to be a light entertainer which expects you leave your brains at home before you enter the cinema hall. But if it aims so then it’s the maker’s responsibility to keep you engaged with some really entertaining histrionics by everyone involved with the film. To begin with the plot is banal. It instantly gives one a feeling of déjà vu. There is nothing new in the offering. The plot situations aim to be hilarious but the writing is so weak that it all falls flat. It is then only the actors who give out their best and make the film a little bit bearable. Rohit Shetty had committed the same mistake in his last outing, Sunday where he managed to assemble a talented cast but failed to pack in the right content that could compliment them. No wonder the film flopped badly at the box office.

To be fair there are a few funny situations here and there but they appear funnier only because of the actors enacting them, especially Tusshar and Shreyas. One also fails to understand why the makers felt like poking fun of Ekta’s Balaji serials when it was just done to bad results in the recently released flop C Kkompany also starring Tusshar Kapoor! While C Kkompany had Ekta Kapoor’s K series serial actress Sakshi Tanwar making an appearance you have another Ekta protégé, Ram Kapoor making a special appearance to zero effect! One of the biggest contributing factors to Golmaal’s success was Paresh Rawal. How one wishes he was there as a main character in this film as well!

Amongst the actors, the ones who impress the most are Shreyas Talpade and Tusshar Kapoor. Ajay and Kareena do well but don’t really make a good pair. Poor Arshad Warsi gets the least scope as compared to others despite being excellent in his comic timing. Amrita Arora continues with her dumb belle act. Celina for a change fully clothed manages to bring a few smiles. Murli Sharma, Rakhi Vijan, Ashwini Kalsekar, Vrajesh Hirjee and Mukesh Tiwari lend good support.

The music by Pritam is average barring Tha Karke which is very lavishly shot and is entertaining to watch.

If you expect more fun in Golmaal Returns than Golmaal then you are going to be in for a major disappointment. So venture in if you wish with zero expectations and there are chances you might enjoy a moment or two but the end result wouldn’t be that satisfactory!

At the end Golmal Returns is a major let down in terms of content.

    I personal use to be a grt follower of your reviews..!!

  2. hey guys i just saw the movie ……

    the first half is really very hilarious but the 2nd half is not so funny ……

    one thing i wanna admit is that , ARSHAD WARSI is being out played in this movie……………

    this movie is not as good ,as the last one was …..
    but the movie was a real fun …

    there are many moment’s when you cant stop laughing…..
    but we expected more from ROHIT SHETTY…..

    GO FOR IT………….

  3. agree with you dinesh good for 1 time watch- GO FOR IT!!!!!

  4. chal itne dhansu picture hai apne reviEwS apne taak simit rakh…..

  5. Saw movie today only,
    to be frank, no one expected any logic from this movie….right???
    then why to dissapoint by reading stupid reviews……

    Just go and see movie

    Movie is just great……..

  6. fully faltu movie

  7. pls dont go by promos of this movie…they r deceptive..this movie is just a torture for any1….lack in content… poor comedy…poor humour…a sure shot waste of time n money…golmaal returns is a major let down in terms of everything…I strongly feel tat this movie shud not b realised at this occassion n in dis market condition wen people seek to get sum refreshin time to get over things

  8. yes,i do agree completely with him who wrote this review.this movie is really a complete waste of time.its faltoo.its bakwaas.its hopeless.its useless.its an absolute waste of money.its better to sleep at home than to watch such useless movie.

  9. good movie
    fully times pass
    rating according me
    3.0/5

  10. nice movie better than golmal1

  11. a nice movie 4 entertainment…………
    ……….GO for it………have a BLAST……………..

  12. excellent movie

  13. first off all this movei was defineitly not a golmaal 1 standard film…because first of all…..the guys are not friends which doesnt end up to be a sequel…its like just anotheer story with everyone with same names….the movie is fany at points but not gud to watch for da second time…

  14. Awesome movie a must watch stuff…..

  15. well listen guys…everyone has different opinions ….nothing else ….movie overall is not so good n also its not a waste of tym .. u can watch it once its a funny movie a good comedy movie

  16. WORST movie of the year. Manchester Karrena with dark eye bags has nothing to show now. Atleast they should have shown what one man and a woman could do together in night without doing any thing and still get the yacht messed up.

  17. what the hell kareena is doing in this movie……………

  18. first half is awesome second is awful i am still confused whether 1st half is better in being good than the 2nd in being horrible so all in all an average movie

  19. what a **** film! cheap third class comedy … **** dumb acting by Tushar Kapoor .. waste of money and time …

  20. SUUUUperb Movie, didnt expect such a comedy and perfect direction… just saw the movie and my laughing is not stopping :) but i should say +16 :DD but 10 / 10 and off course the best part is done by tushaar, GREAT WORK man.. :))

  21. I think Golmaal 1 was better than Golmaal Returns.. I dint like the Last part where Tushaar kapoor speaks. He shouldnt have done dat. if he speaks here, then there will be no fun in the next part, coz people will not have the same opinin towards him as dumb. and they have done more like a reality, coz they say like “Yeh Pehle Mein Tha,” or “Yeh Pehle mein nahi tha”. wat is dat. ? A movie must be like a movie.. Not as reality

  22. JUST BAKWAAS!!!

  23. It was good but below expectations. Good for one time WATCH

  24. Asalem Malekum
    Enshallah yeh movie hai ya ek gandhi yeh. Amo poche yarner kob achote se to that

  25. very good movie……….i feel better than the 1st part…..go for it…….u will die laughing…….i rate this movie-4/5…..

  26. ajay davgan superb telented actor of bolly wood i think he is real king just wait and watcj rajnate london dreems asoka and next hom production welldone ajay farrukh hussain karachi 03462803956

  27. just ajay davgan wow umaaaaahhh i love u huma imran

  28. i think ajay davgan is the most superb actor in bollywood prove that two times natinol award winning srk is not best ajay and amir is real super star

  29. It the worst film i have ever seen in my life, such a cheap comedy , i will never suggest anyone to watch any next Mr. Rohit shetty’s film, He should be banned in bollywwod, pathetic film , and song was extreamly irritating .. i dont know how Kareena and ajay has choosen such a bad script film ..

  30. the movie is not very good it’s average movie.

    it’s boring movie

  31. why they make sequel?

  32. its not as good movie as the earlier one. But its worth watching.Its entirely a new story.

  33. If are carrying lot of expectations of laughing in the theater u will be surely dissappointed!!!
    bcoz its no comedy just bakwass….
    I havent seen a Bakwaas movie like Golamal Returns!!!
    Golmal 1 was far better and returns is no way comparable to tht!! its just a waste of time & ticket money!!
    Kareena has no role to play exept suspecting her husband
    and so are the other two heroines!!
    the only watchable actors in the mpvie are Tushar & Shreyas
    I thinks Himesh’s karz was far better than Golamal Returns :-)

  34. i agree with some of you here.. that golmaal one was far better than golmaal returns.. i had a lot of expectations from this movie.. the songs had nothing to do with the story.. that was so silly they just added it for no reason.. there was no connection.. but it’s a good time pass with family n friends …a good laugh.. in some of the parts you die laughin.. there is no story.. its just comedy.. i didn’t like the part where tushar speaks in the end.. didn’t like that at all.. it killed the whole story !!

  35. this movie you can not campare to even welcome to sajan pur coz that movie is more good than golmaal returns. which persons are telling they can’t stop laughing to watch golmaal returns they should watch cartoons thats more better than golmaal returns.

  36. very funy movie

  39. I will go and watch this movie today.only then i can give impartial comments.

  40. only & only ajay devgan

  41. Hi Sampuran,

    Why do you say that movie is a big letdown ? I saw the movie today and it is absolutely halarious comedy. May be not as good as Golmaal but why do you compare. In today’s world of tensions and misries , if people can open heartedly laugh in theatre, then I will say movie is definitely worth and this movie fully complies with this requirement.

  42. tis movie is d weirdest movie of d yr……kareena,ajay devgan sucks…….d songs copied frm a tamil movie ’shivaji the boss’,rajini kanth is known 4 his style.ajay devagan sucks.i just hate him.not only d name of d movie is golmaal but d movie is a golmaal.
