All The Best

Description

Veer (Fardeen Khan), a singer in greed of extracting extra pocket money from his step-brother Dharam (Sanjay Dutt), a business-honcho from London, tries to lie about his single status and puts it forth as happily married with Vidya (Mugdha Godse), who he is in love with. His friend Prem (Ajay Devgn), a concept car expert, lends a helping hand in this falsely embossed projection. Prem is happily married to Jhanvi (Bipasha Basu), who takes care of his ancestors' out-dated Chopra Gymnasium . Veer and Prem land up in debts as they had opted for a short-cut to earn easy money. Watch the fun unfold as both get into a bigger soup when Dharam pays a sudden visit to their place. Time does not give a chance and circumstances create such situations that Jhanvi is mistaken as Vidya and Vidya as Jhanvi... Soon the two start juggling between prolonging the debt payment to a local don, Tobu (Johnny Lever), and convincing plus pacifying Dharam about the false status. The outcome is a rib-tickling comic situation where Veer and Prem handle the unexpected incoming characters arriving at their place and coping with acquaintances while they boast and cover up with lies in this hilarious comedy of errors. Comedy is a serious business and Rohit Shetty is a pro at this genre now. This time, the talented Director seeks inspiration from RIGHT BED, WRONG HUSBAND and what works to the advantage are two factors - the written material and the right casting. Both are just right! From time to time, it has been noticed that some films are made with the motive of keeping you entertained. ALL THE BEST is one of those films. Go, have a blast! ALL THE BEST is fun and laughter unlimited. At the box-office, the festive period coupled with the solid track record of Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty and also the strong merits will ensure ample footfalls at cineplexes, making its investors laugh all the way to the bank. Recommended! --platform47.com If you prefer to see Sanjay Dutt fitter and more awake, you might want to venture into All The Best: The Fun Begins, the latest from the Rohit Shetty-Ajay Devgan combo. The director-producer-star duo, who also gave us Golmaal and Golmaal Returns, seem to have concocted a workable comic formula. Several characters gather in a single location, usually a large house. The comedy stems from lies or mistaken identity or a few well-placed slaps but the gags are non- stop. To prevent it from becoming a large screen television-sitcom, Shetty also bungs in at least one metal-crunching action sequence and at least two mind-boggling, over-the-top song sequences. It s seriously low IQ but you can t stop laughing. The actors are having such a good time that their energy is infectious. --platform47.com Rohit Shetty shows that he's mastered the art of making wholesome entertainers that has all the ingredients in the right quantities: music, romance, action and of course, comedy. He seems to have become more confident of delivering the formula after Golmaal Returns and it shows. He especially deserves credit for extracting good performances out of actors not exactly known for their comic timing. All The Best may not be the best comedy ever made, but has enough laughs to ensure you get your money's worth. Of course, like most other films of this genre, it would be advisable to not go looking for too much sense and sensibilities in this one. As the tagline of the film suggests, this one surely is a fun ride. --platform47.com Sanjay Dutt (born July 29, 1959), is an Indian Bollywood film actor and politician.

Rohit Shetty is a Director, Presenter, and Cinematographer. He is the son of the late villain and fightmaster Shetty, who acted in many Hindi and Kannada movies. He is from South India, from the city of Mangalore in Karnataka. He was interested in films since childhood As he belong to a film family. At 13 or 14, he was certain that he wanted to be a Director and never thought of becoming an Actor. He completed his Secondary School Certificate at St Mary's School, Mumbai. Rohit started his career at the age of 15 as an Assistant Director with Kuku Kohli on the film "Phool Aur Kaante" starring Ajay Devgan. Then he assisted him in "Ek Aur Kohinoor", which was never released. He also worked with him in "Suhaag" (Ajay, Akshay Kumar, Karisma Kapoor), "Haqueeqat" (Ajay, Tabu) and "Zulmi" (Akshay, Twinkle Khanna). By then, he had developed a good rapport with Ajay. After that he started work with Anees Bazmee on "Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha" (Ajay and Kajol), followed by Ajay's home productions, "Hindustan Ki Kasam" and "Raju Chacha". During the making of "Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha", he knew he was ready to make his own film. When they were planning Raju Chacha, it was decided that he would make his directorial debut after Anil Devgan, and Ajay would act in it. Thus, he directed his first feature film Zameen as an independent Director with Devgan in 2003 at the age of 29 Review: comedy - very funny movie.its nice to see ajay devgan having fun with his roll.all the characters were very silly funny.great laughs.wouldnt mind a sequel. Review: Slapstick, Lowbrow, and Fun - "All the Best" is a Hindi comedy featuring several big stars of Indian cinema: Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan, Bipasha Basu, and Fardeen Khan. Director Rohit Shetty also made the wildly popular "Golmaal" trilogy, and those who are familiar with the Golmaal films will see some similarities here. "All the Best", like "Golmaal", was filmed in Goa and has the same breezy, fun-in-the-sun atmosphere. In addition, like the Golmaal series, it features a couple of slackers as its heroes - guys who are good at heart but always find themselves short on cash and running into trouble with local underworld-types. Since the official product description is a little tricky to comprehend, I'll summarize the plot here: Veer (Fardeen Khan) lives in a beautiful house in Goa thanks to his older brother Dharam (Sanjay Dutt), a wealthy businessman who lives outside India and doesn't realize what his younger brother is really up to. Veer is a struggling musician without a stable source of income; he lies to his older brother about being married so that Dharam will send a monthly allowance. Dharam often shares this allowance with his best friend Prem (Ajay Devgan), who runs a decrepit, near-bankrupt gym with his wife Jhanvi (Bipasha Basu). Through a combination of gambling and illegal car racing, Veer and Prem go into debt to a local loan shark. Then one day, older brother Dharam shows up unexpectedly in Goa...and you can guess how the rest of the story goes. Since Veer's girlfriend Vidhya is nowhere to be found, Jhanvi must pose as Veer's wife, and when Vidhya herself shows up, she must then pose as Jhanvi. The story elements are typical of a Rohit Shetty comedy: mistaken identities, slapstick comedy, and an ever-increasing cast of characters who always show up just in time to complicate everything. The plot is completely predictable and the action/car-chase sequences hugely over the top and unbelievable, so let's assume that you already know and expect this from a Rohit Shetty film. Here are the good points of the film. First, Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgan are hilarious. Ajay has great talent as a comedian and I found myself rewinding just so that I could watch his expressions and delivery again. The comedic interplay between Sanjay and Ajay is great to watch. Fardeen Khan performs well, though he's overshadowed by Ajay. Bipasha Basu and Mugdha Godse are fine in their roles, but the script doesn't give them much comedic scope - for the most part, they play it fairly straight and the guys get all the good lines (if you want to see a woman in a great comedic part, see Kareena Kapoor in "Golmaal 3"). The comedy resulting from the mistaken-identity plot is so obvious that you'll see it coming from a mile away, but that doesn't mean it's not enjoyable anyway. Unfortunately, the music was disappointing in this film as there weren't any truly memorable songs. (This is in contrast to "Golmaal 3", which had a simply fantastic line-up of songs.) If you're not already familiar with "bollywood" movies, this probably won't be quite as appealing to you since much of the enjoyment rests on seeing well-loved actors like Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgan do broad comedy.
