So it looks like I have already whacked the hell outta my brand new flatmate.
I said - it looks like.
Actually, the chap had dental surgery done last week, and his right cheek was swollen. As if bhai ne ghumaake diya ho do-chaar.
Aur khelo kitchen mein cricket. :|
Because of the stitches, he was having difficulty eating and drinking. Hell, he couldn't even laugh properly. "Please don't crack any more jokes," he requested to me day before yesterday, before forming a circular shape with his lips and letting out a controlled Santa-like ho-ho-ho. (By the way, all those traumatised by my PJs should meet this guy. He can give my PJs a run for their money any day.)
So when he said he wanted to go watch Munnabhai II, my first reaction was "Are you sure????"
"Yeah!"
"But you can't even laugh properly, it will be a waste man."
But he insisted. So I asked him to rehearse his Santa-like laughter several times, because there are few movies in the world that guarantee laughs, and this was one of them.
So we watched the movie.
Oh man.
IloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIloveditIlovedit.
And oh, I loved it!
Vidhu Vinod Chopra ki jai ho! Rajkumar Hirani ki jai ho! Abbas Tyrewala ki jai ho! Munnabhai ki jai ho! Circuit ki jai ho! Sab ki jai ho! Koi bach gaya? Uski bhi jai ho!
I don't remember laughing this hard at a movie in ages. AGES!
Now and then I'd look at my flatmate as he tried to manage his manufactured laugh. Boy, he so needs a second watch.
And if his wisdom tooth fairy is listening, I want a wish (since I doubt he's gonna ask for one).
"I want THIRTEEN Munnabhai movies, and I want every character in the movie to come back in every movie, just like they did in this one. Please don't let anyone associated with the movie die before all THIRTEEN are released."
It's not every movie that you love every miniscule bit o f.
It's not every movie where you can't make up your mind if the first one was better or this one.
It's not every movie that makes you adore a leading guy you never liked in any of his other movies.
It's not every movie that has scenes that can make you laugh and cry at the same time.

U Bet naari!
Circuit ka character jisne bhi conceptualize kiya woh genius hai. I haven't laughed this hard in a movie in a long time. I was so impatient for the intermission to end and for seconf half to start.
Btw movie ke pehle, Eklavya ka trailer dekha tha and I can't wait for the trailers to be released on TV.
munna bhai ko jaake toh ab dekhna hee padega lagta hai!!
and talking abt thirteen sequels, arey agar sanju baba mar bhi gaye(i mean in case, waise woh amar rahein hamaari dua se) toh aap hain naa!!
sir-kit kaa role toh main kar dunga.
dhaansu movie banegi.. ekdum rapchik!! ;)
Gag..
I am reconsidering the sanity of owning your own bar, bhai.
First Karan Johar and now this
Yikes
Lekin bhai...aapki orkut profile kahaan chali gayi..woh condi rice waali?

Looks like I'm gonna have to find tickets for this weekend!:) Too many positive reviews coming in.

I'm before TGFI and I just shot Liz. With this, I lay claim to the gold. :D
And Munnabhai is one of the few Bollywood movies that I'm gonna watch without plans of dissing it. :P

Dayum, woman! Don't tempt me like this, will you? I have an exam coming up in 2 days, and all the while I'm going to be thinking of how badly I wanna watch the movie! *sobs - nay, weeps*

#Sudeep,
All sequels suck. As in, they can NEVER match the first one. That's the universal truth. But the good thing about this one is - it is NOT a sequel! Bole toh? You go watch, tab pata chalega apun kya bol rela hai :D

Sayesha:
You should read my review to see how much we both agree on this! :) If you find it worthy enough to leave a comment I had be honoured!
sneha:
Agree with you! :)

Sayesha, visit the above site for a post inspired by one of your posts last year. It doesnt acknowledge you ofcourse. Maybe, it is a coincidence. Maybe not.
Sounds tempting.Will try and catch it by the weekend.
Vidhu Vinod Chopra is my favourite director. I like 1942 A Love Story, Parinda, Kareeb, Mission Kashmir, Munnabhai MBBS....
aur kuch baki rehgaya kya......it is also my favourite.....ha ha.
Vidya Balan ki jai ho!!.
Laughing like Santa Cluase.
Santa was briefly misread as Santa of Santa Singh fame :P
hey after reading so much .. about this movie.. are you by any chance associated with the movie publicity system?... he he..
Honestly I didn't like it at all... too tapori for me and I think I am slowly becoming a cynic or somthing.. :)
wow, seems to be a great movie from all I hear!
M.B.B.S is so far the only good Hindi comedy I know. In fact it was so good that even my bollywood-sceptical friends liked it a lot.
I'm quite excited to finally see the sequel :)
You wrote that every character was back in the movie. I hope they didn't omit short circuit? Uska nam sab se achha joke hai :)
