Kapil Chandana Sir, is this your idea of remaking a film that you admire? Sir, you cannot just discard the film's soul, which had made it into a coveted entry in the library of Indian cinema, and just process the skin. Sai Pranjpe's Chashme Buddoor wasn't just a comedy, it was an ode to the vagaries of the city's lifestyle. It was a brilliant character study filled with memorable moments. Making your film "badder" (the cue in the title) to match the modern bad world, without backing it up with anything substantial, hardly counts.The new Omi's rhymes fall flat compared to Rakesh Bedi's poetry. As stand-alone movie too, it fails to impress. Ram Gopal Varma made the same mistake with Aag, though your effort isn't horrendous like RGV's, it still comes across empty. Why attempt something if cannot raise or at least match the bar? Some shoes are hard to fill.

akashimdb David Dhawan does what he should have done ages ago, ditches Govinda and takes three brilliant actors and makes Chashme Baddoor (CD). In CD, he does what he does best, makes people laugh out their bones. CD is a remake of some South movie.CD has a simple yet nice story for a comedy. The screenplay is an achievement. The dialogues are a further achievement. "If you cant change the girl, change the girl" is surely picking in the college campuses. The shaayaris are funny and the best part being that you cant predict them.Ali Zafar plays the honest guy in today's generation with brilliant technique. Siddharth plays his lovable character so naturally that he gets the maximum attention in the frame. Divyendu Sharma has made his career by playing this incredible shaayar. Actually all three roles were extremely difficult. but with David Dhawan's leadership, it seems like a cakewalk. Anupam Kher and Rishi Kapoor are enjoyable as always. Tapsee Pannu as Neha is cute and very pretty in her role.The music is very good. Ishq Moohallah and Har Ek Friend Kamina Hota Hai are the favorites. The cinematography is colorful.Chashme Baddoor is a youthful joy ride. Its a must watch and definitely one of the best comedies of all time!

Ketan Gupta Chashme Baddoor was one of the disappointing film which had good comic timings and hilarious moments but was saddened by weak direction and terrible script.Sid , Jai and Omi are best buddies cum room-mates. Enters Neha, a chirpy, lovable neighbor who just moved into her uncle's house. Womanizers Jai and Omi try their luck to woo the girl but fails miserably. Surprisingly , she gets attracted to the third room-mate. Jai and Omi scheme up idea to split the love-birds so that they can avenge their failure.Directed by veteran David Dhawan , Chashme Baddoor was one of the movie I was looking forward to see this year but was thoroughly disappointed with loud comedy , bothering songs and terrible screenplay. Direction wise David Dhawan is not in form. He chose to remake a classic but made it a complete waste. It is Divyendu Sharma and Siddarth who makes the movie fun-to-watch at times. They are top-rated and gives their best to keep you entertained.Overall , It can be viewed once if you are looking for some entertainment. Best to avoid it. Average 2.5/5

mostwanted678452056 If you are expecting a comedy movie similar to something like "Hera Pheri" or "Munna Bhai MBBS" then get ready to be disappointed. The comedy seems staged and over the top. (As if they are trying too hard at it). You will cringe a lot during the movie because of some comic scenes. The story is not worth remembering or worth seeing another time.I had a lot of expectations on this movie. It failed to impress me.The only redeemable aspect of the movie is that the actors did well even with the worst dialogues. There were some very cheesy lines ("Dum hain boss!" -- whenever the actress said it, my hair stood on its ends and I had to cringe...Like WTF! Couldn't they come up with a better catchphrase!!-- Shame on the story writer and dialogue writer)Overall I gave it 5 because I am a fan of Divyendu Sharma and Siddharth (Ali Zafar needs some more acting lessons). Watch it after switching off your brain. You "might" enjoy it.
