The Kunwara Movie Review

Every man in his humor, Dhawan istyle

RATING: 6

When it comes to slapstick comedy loaded with fun and frivolity, there's nothing like the tickling duo of Govinda and David Dhawan back with their latest entertainer 'Kunwara'.

To complete the picture is the curvaceous Urmila Matondkar who seems to have a perfect knack for Dhawan's istyle of comedy.

The movie begins with Urmila (Urmila Matondkar) going to New Zealand to teach a lesson to Raju (Govinda) a flirting Romeo who has jilted her dear friend. Raju is a fun-loving and kind-hearted young man who believes in enjoying life to the hilt. After knowing Urmila's intentions, very cleverly, he swaps roles with his favorite sidekick Gopal (Johny Lever), who ultimately bears the brunt of Urmi's wrath. But all this only brings Urmi close to Raju and, as expected, love sprouts between them and comes to full bloom. And the lovebirds spend most of their time crooning and dancing on snow-clad mountains and squeaky-clean streets of New Zealand.

Now, back in India, Raju meets an ideal Bhartiya Nari Sharmila (Naghma), who is dejected from life as she is carrying somebody's paap in her womb. Empathizing with her suffering the kind-hearted Raju decides to help her by impersonating as her husband. But by doing so he only puts his own foot in his mouth as he discovers that Sharmila is Urmi's elder sister. Moreover, the girls' father (Om Puri) doesn't like Raju much and often practices his shooting skills on him. Now, amidst this hullabaloo of ricocheting bullets and the yammer of his nakli biwi, how Raju goes about winning the stewed Urmi's love again is what 'Kunwara' is all about.

Govinda, as we know, doesn't take much longer to strike a rapport with the frontbenchers with his slick performance. Urmila, on the other hand, besides looking fabulous, has been able to match Chi Chi's comical histrionics. Om Puri is quite impressive in his role of a roaring gun wielding 'sanaki' father.

Anyway, by now we know what kind of comedy to expect from a David Dhawan's movie. He seems to be cashing on his tried-and-tested set formula. The comedy in his movies is replete with incongruity, absurdity and foolishness, and the treatment of characters in it has elements of exaggeration and caricature.

In a nutshell, Kunwara fails to do the magic that David's earlier films like Aankhen and Hero No. 1 did. The humor in it is mostly intentional and seldom situational.

Adesh Shrivastava's foot-stomping musical score and Sameer's fun-filled lyrics adds an extra zing to the movie.
