ok fine my khala is a big fan of govinda so this afternoon i watched this movie with her:khumar:
MONEY HAI TOH HONEY HAI is like flying in an aircraft without a pilot. You don’t know where it’s headed!
The writer of this film is the biggest culprit. The writing touches a new low with this film. Ganesh Acharya tries to pack in funny sequences, but just two bring a smile – the Archana Puransingh-Upen Patel track and Govinda’s encounter with a Vijay Mallya lookalike, who is surrounded by a bevy of beauties.
The songs [music: Nitin Arora, Soni Chandi] too show up without any valid reason whatsoever, although a few songsare tuneful and well choreographed.
Now to the performances! Govinda looks too old for his part. The role demanded a 20 + actor and Govinda looks completely out of place here. The age shows! Imagine, he calls Jawed Sheikh his father and Ketaki Dave his mother!!! Besides, why is behaving so kool by speaking in English? It looks fake!
You feel sad to watch an actor of the calibre of Manoj Bajpayee being reduced to absolute nothing. Is he the same actor who acted in SATYA? And ZUBEIDAA, PINJAR and 1971?
Aftab Shivdasani looks right for the part, but he hardly gets any scenes. Upen Patel does a good job and his scenes are truly funny.
Hansika goes over the top. Celina Jaitley gets no scope either. Archana Puransingh, besides Upen, provides a few laughs. She’s excellent. Prem Chopra is wasted. Ravi Kishan too doesn’t impress.
On the whole, MONEY HAI TOH HONEY HAI is a poor show. , a damp squib!
