SCOOP!! & NEWS Hulchul: Empty hullabaloo27th Nov 2004 13.10 IST By Nitika Desai Two warring families straddle the story of this movie that is set in a background providing a good range of contrast from a feudal setting in a village to a college campus. Priyadarshan ’s Hera Pheri was a superbly made comedy and undoubtedly his best work. But his next movie Hungama and now his Hulchul are like testimonies to the elusive fact that his natural flair for making comedies is on the wane. 
Starring Akshaye Khanna , Kareena Kapoor , Sunil Shetty , Paresh Rawal , Arshad Warsi , Jackie Shroff and Arbaaz Khan , Hulchul is the story of two families baying for each other’s blood. On one hand is the family of authoritarian Angaarchand and his four sons who are vowed to the book of misogyny and live by the code of celibacy. On the other is the family of scheming Lakshmidevi and her three sons and a grand daughter. What starts off as a game of revenge between the two families leads to the sowing of the first seed of love that shakes the very root of the rigid ideologies the two families have been living by. Hulchul is in part entertaining and irritating. It is not exactly a comedy but a drama driven by comic situations and characters that now and then invoke laughter by their idiosyncrasies. Many times in the movie rationality is thrown to the winds just for the sake of humor that somehow makes you laugh superficially despite some good performances by the cast, particularly by Arshad Warsi, Paresh Rawal and Akshaye Khanna. |
