David Dhawan sticks to his oft-repeated formula of slapstick comedy in Ek Aur Ek Gyarah. The movie is riddled with crass gags and non-sensical humor that has been the backbone of all of Dhawan’s films.
The
narrative keeps shifting from one character to another without any common thread.
The romantic angle between Govinda, Sanjay and their ladyloves is shoddily penned. The two protagonists often act like bumpkins and end up having their own foot in their mouth. Even the romantic songs are forcibly put in the narrative and that crop up at the most invalid situations.
The first half of the film is appealing and occupies a viewer thanks to a few spine tickling puns and pranks. However, the story begins to lose pace in the second half and by the end a viewer is tired of the kitschy situations and puerile jokes.
Both Govinda and Sanjay Dutt deliver commendable performances but fail to make much mark because of the lack of good script.
