Hey guys, this one is going to make you laugh and roll until you fell down of your seat. Yes, this comic flick has all the masala to give you unlimited fun for 160 mins.

Statutory warning: Don’t carry your brains inside cinema halls. If you want to enjoy the movie, just forget the logic and go with the mood of 4 wags ( Ajay, Arshad, Sarman and Tusshar).

Preconceived ideas :1. Ajay looks good only in matured and serious roles 2. Tusshar can’t act.

Clarifications: Great actors can do any kind of role, and so Ajay can. He looks good in this movie. Yes, Tusshar can also act, and he looks great if he doesn’t have to speak.

Arshad Warsi is becoming a jester of bollywood , and you can be assured that he will make you laugh with all his deeds. Sarman Joshi’s comic timing is getting better with each movie.

Rumy Jaffery has written hilarious dialogues , which. Aseem Bajaj’s top level cinematogrphy gives this flick a very fresh and lively look. All the jokes are original and thats the big plus of this movie. Songs goes with the story.

What to watch out for: -> Heart strealing performances by Arshad Varsi, Sarman Joshi, Ajay Devgan, Tusshar Kapoor, Vrajesh Hirji, Sushmita Mukherjee and Paresh Rawal.
-> Excellent Cinematography by Aseem Bajaj.
-> Aage peeche song, picturised on Paresh Rawal and sushmita mukherji.
-> Valentines day scene where all 4 went to wish Rimi.
-> Hostel room scene , where Manoj Joshi enters Sarman Joshi’s room and other 3 hides.
-> Excellent dialgoues by Rumy Jaffery and good chemistry among fours, which keeps your tummy rolling.

What not to watch out for:
-> Some Jerky movements and loud comedy. At times, it becomes irritating.
-> Mukesh Tiwari, Rimi Sen has not been utilized properly. Razzak khan, Sanjay Mishra has not much to do in the movie. Manoj Joshi is very loud and irritates at times.
-> Backgroud score is average . For a good comedy movie, one should have a good background score to support the good comic dialogues.

As per the trade reports, Golmaal has got a decent opening(not a fantastic one) with 13 crore gross in its first week. Trade analyst believe that if Akshay kumar had been casted in Golmaal, it could have done wonders at the box-office. Next week release Omkara looks very promising, and may eat up the business of Golmaal. Overall, Its a good time pass , and can be watched once .
