The
four
jokers,
Adi
(Arshad
Warsi),
Roy
(Riteish
Deshmukh),
Manav
(Javed
Jafferi)
and
Boman
(Ashish
Chaudhry),
are
back
with
the
laugh
riot
in
Double
Dhamaal.
The
film
starts
with
a
quick
recap
on
the
first
part
Dhamaal,
giving
a
brief
intro
about
the
characters
to
the
audience
who
have
not
watched
Dhamaal
and
are
clueless
about
the
plot.
The
best
part
is
that
Double
Dhamaal
exactly
starts
from
where
the
prequel
concludes.
Nothing
in
the
sequel
changes,
the
four
characters
are
still
in
competition
to
top
the
stupidity
level,
they
are
still
useless,
they
still
dream
about
a
richie-rich
life
with
no
hard
work.
And
then
suddenly
they
confront
their
enemy,
the
corrupt
Inspector
Kabir
Nayak
(Sanjay
Dutt).
These
four
friends
discover
that
Kabir
is
no
more
a
cop
and
has
become
a
millionaire.
Out
of
the
sheer
envy
they
blackmail
Kabir
to
make
them
his
business
partners.
However,
soon
their
dreams
turn
into
nightmares.
Kamini
(Mallika
Sherawat)
Sanjay's
girlfriend
and
Kiya
(Kangana
Ranaut)
are
well
aware
of
the
mystery.
Batabhai
(Satish
Kaushik)
is
well
used
to
make
the
characters
life
miserable.
Director
Indra
Kumar
has
once
again
integrated
a
generous
dose
of
light
moments
in
the
film.
Though
Dhamaal
was
one
of
his
kind
slap-stick
comedy.
The
uncontaminated
comedy
in
Double
Dhamaal
works
big
time.
The
airtight
screenplay
(Tushar
Hiranandani)
also
takes
a
part
of
the
merit.
Kumar
has
perfectly
executed
the
script
with
a
brilliant
comic
timing.
The
credit
of
the
film
cannot
be
given
alone
to
the
script,
the
chemistry
between
the
four
boys
is
outstanding.
Moreover,
unlike
the
prequel,
this
one
is
added
with
the
glam
quotient
with
actress
Mallika
Sherawat
and
Kangana
Ranaut
as
important
part
in
the
film.
A
big
toast
goes
to
the
witty
and
brilliant
dialogues
(Farhad-Sajid).
Soundtracks
(
Anand
Raaj
Anand)
in
the
film
is
well
complimented,
especially
Mallik's
'Jalebi
Bai
act'.
Aseem
Bajaj's
cinematography
is
top
notch.
Performances
Arshad,
Riteish,
Jaaved
and
Aashish
are
stars
of
the
comedy
world.
Riteish
is
simply
outstanding.
It
won't
be
wrong
to
say
that
Double
Dhamaal
is
his
career-best
work.
Arshad
is
amazing
with
comic
timing.
Jaaved
couldn't
have
been
more
stupid.
Aashish
is
a
complete
revelation.
In
fact,
the
four
actors
make
the
film
look
flawless
and
unblemished.
Sanjay
Dutt
is
the
catalyst
in
the
film,
the
perfect
man
for
the
job.
Both
Mallika
and
Kangana
are
excellent.
Double
Dhamaal
will
make
people
realize
that
Mallika
can
handle
comic
roles
with
effortlessness.
Kangna's
scenes
with
Riteish
are
sure
to
be
noticed.
Satish
Kaushik
is
outstanding
with
his
one-liners.
Zakir
Hussain
is
adequate.
Over
All
All
said
and
done,
Double
Dhamaal
is
an
eruption
of
laughter.
It
is
definitely
not
for
people
who
are
looking
for
wisdom
and
rationale.
People
who
enjoy
light-hearted
entertainer
with
a
good
laugh
are
called
for
a
treat.
Have
a
Double
Dhamaal
this
weekend
with
the
jokers
on-screen.
