Review: A new genre has arrived in Bollywood! I would like to call it Shetty comedy! The Golmaal director has certainly succeeded in creating a brand for himself with All the Best.
Though some situations in the movie look forced, but cinema is known for taking such liberties. How else do you think Manmohan Desai would have survived. The best thing about Shetty comedies, are they don’t seem repetetive, and every time offers something fresh. Despite using the same comic formula (of punchy dialogues and multiple characters), till now Rohit Shetty has prevented himself from being typecast.
But beyond a point, it’s difficult to maintain that comic momentum. Even comedy king like David Dhawan slips whenever he’s overconfident. The recent example being Do Knot Disturb.
