Bol Bachchan carries off its rapidly thinning, virtually villain-free plot thanks to its fast-paced presentation of a storyline that hinges on a succession of double identities and escalating fabrications.
Top CriticThough Shetty's movie love is noticeable, his reliance on frantic sound effects and empty action-comedy set pieces over well-thought-out farce mechanics is ultimately wearying.
It feels over-familiar, worthy of only the occasional grin.
Director Shetty delivers another successful comedy after box office hits like Golmaal, All The Best and Singham.
Audience Reviews for Bol Bachchan
Super Reviewer
Abbas Ali (Abhishek Bachchan) moves to Ranakpur village from NEW DELHI after losing out on his ancestral property. An unexpected break in at a local temple brings him face to face with Prithviraj Raghuvanshi (Ajay Devgan), a local power lord. In an attempt to cover up his real Muslim identity, Abbas creates other believable cover-up characters for himself posing as a Hindu, a homosexual and a flurry of other supporting cast to help cover his garb. Rest of the story is about Prithviraj coming to terms with real identity of Abbas accompanied by a string of comic goof ups and hilarious mis-identities coming in to play.
Positives:
--> Abhishek Bachchan's hilarious portrayal as a homosexual
--> Entertaining sequence of events and
--> Original plot from old movie Golmaal
Negatives:
--> Cliched story line when compared with current cinematic standards
