Ankhiyon Se Goli Mare - Govinda returns!!

[echarcha]

Last night we saw the first half o fthe latest Govinda and Raveena Tandon starrrer - "Ankhiyon Se Goli Mare"

It has all the old timer cronies from past Govinda hit films

Kader Khan, Johhny Lever, Shakti Kapoor, et-al.

The story is about Kader Khan being a big time goonda of Chor Bazzar who wishes to marry off his daughter Raveena Tandon to a "naamcheen aur khatarnaak" goonda! So the naamcheen goonda is Shakti Kapoor.

Govinda is a rich building contruction businessman. By Govinda movie-style comic scenarios Raveena meets Govinda thinking he is the match her father selected for her.

Johhny lever is a trainer who trains people to become "bhai" and "goonda". Govinda must now learn to be a bhai to patao Kader Khan to let him marry off his daughter Raveena.

I am going to finish seeing this film tonight.... Will give a detailed review tomorrow!!!

Looks to be a funny film. Govinda is cool...

One song is particularly very cool... Will write lyrics too.. Its about "Bhai log and love between ladki and a bhai"

Is that a raksha bandhan song? Or a "meri pyaari beheniya banegi dulhaniya" type??

[nydood]

I can agree with you because the sugject matter is about "underworld dons and bhai" and that is a very old topic.

But as you know I am watching it purely for Chichi! (Chichi means Govinda to the uninitiated)

[Dude]

this movie got a one star rating only in the times of India .

[tinda]

Govinda is best

TOI always has a "holier than thou" finger stuck in their butt! Their chief reviewer and movie critic made a shitty film called FIza and raved about it on and on!

I prefer to be in the masses looking for mass entertainment than be a "oh so elite and hoity toity" when it comes to entertainment!

[Dude]

that one star rating was not given by Khaild Mohammed .It was given by Jitesh (forgot the surname) or Rashid irani .

Khalid Mohammed no more writes reviews for TOI , atleast he has not written one in ages and in the delhi edition of TOI he never writes at all .


BTW Fiza got a 3 star rating in the TOI delhi edition by Rashid Irani though in the bombay edition the reviewing was done by showman subash ghai and usnay khalid kee dhajiaan uraa dee thee apnay review may .

Elsewhere also I have not heard a single praise for ankhion .....maaray ...though I just love watching Govinda movies , and infact liked Aunty No one a lot which didnt got even a single star rating .


Every news paper in India has screwed up ankhion ....

I have read the story also in details , not at all worth watching I wont go for it at all .

[Dude]

BTW Fiza was ok , and worth watching once and I liked it

Infact even remember the date of watching it .It was 8th or 9th sept 2000 ,the day it was released .I watched the first day first show

Some of the songs were quite good and meaningful and entertaining and Karishma looked devastatingly sexy in one dance .

Mrs Amitabh Bachchan 's acting (Jaya) was simply natural and Bhiku Mahaatrey's acting was as always superb .

Amaan (Rithik Roshan was also not disappoiniting)

Over all the direction was simply superb though the story wasn't all that good .The movie seemed to have been having all the best of bollywood combined .

Saw the movie with “Akhiyon se gold maare” song, Dulhe Raja.
Great time pass. Besides, Givinda, Kader Kgan and Johnny lever, the movie moves at a fast pace never boring you, except ay be in one qawalli.

This is way better than other Govinda movies like coolie no. 1. The consistently even pace actually matches that of Hitchcock movies. RIP the director Harmesh malhotra. Ankhiyon se goli maare with the same director and cast is not so great though. It flips the sides and here Govinda is high class and Raveena is mango lady.

Reminds me- What happened to Parijatika??

[Sane Less]

"Dulhe Raja" probably figures in the top 10 or 20 Hindi comedy movies of all time. It has to... one of the funnier Govinda movies. A close second from the same actor would be "Aankhen"...

I agree both are awesome comedies... but I find Aankhen to be his best!!

I found Aankhen to be much more entertaining than any other Govinda movie.
Aankhen was a class apart.

I love all those old movies where people try to win girls over with "eyes"

And to think these days there is tinder, bumble or something...you swipe and you hook up? jeez!

No meeting eyes, no old fashioned spilling drinks on dresses
