Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

silvan-desouza Hrishikesh Mukherjee was a big name in 70's with several hits like ANAND(1971),CHUPKE CHUPKE(1975) He made films with simple characters, situations plus he used to make good comedies with lot of ingredients like Look alikes, lot of mistakes identities something today's directors like Rohit Shetty, David Dhawan have made a mess out of The film released in 1979 and is till today known as one of the best laughationsThe film does have several stock characters of Hrishikesh Mukherjee like the simpleton hero, Utpal Dutt's character is similar to Om Prakash's in CHUPKE CHUPKE and later DINA PATHAK in KHOOBSURAT(1980) The story is somewhat in the similar vein but the film is superb and makes you laugh throughout The film is hilarious and makes for nice viewing and provides a nostalgic feelingThe film does also have guest appearances like Amitabh, Rekha Amitabh is shown in a shooting scene of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's own film JURMANA(1979) which released in the same year later but didn't work perhapsThe film keeps you involved throughout and isn't farcical like Rohit Shetty moviesDirection by Hrishikesh Mukherjee is fabulous yet again Music by R.D.Burman is superb especially AANE WALA PAL which is still today remembered, Sung brilliantly by Kishore Kumar Dialogues leave you in splitsAmol Palekar excels in the role which is second nature to him, he played similar roles very often later but he is superb in this and got the best actor award Equally superb in Utpal Dutt who can make you laugh even with a straight face, He is awesome Bindiya Goswami who got famous with this film does a good job Dina Pathak is hilarious, I never knew she was so good at comedy rest like David are their usual self

Chrysanthepop Well first thing's first. If you liked 'Chupke Chupke' (another comedy of error by Mr. Mukherjee) then you'll almost certainly enjoy 'Gol Maal'. Mukherjee does what he's very specialized in doing: telling the simple story of the common man and this time again he does it with comedy. The film opens with the hilarious title song and the story slightly falls on the same line of Mukherjee's 'Chupke Chupke' but the humour and the actors make the moments their own and 'Gol Maal' is very much its own film. Amol Palekar as the simpleton who is 'forced' to live a double life, Utpal Dutt as the opinionated boss and Dina Pathak as the vivacious mother/aunt create a wonderful comic team. Lending support are Manju Singh as the happy-go-lucky sister, Deven Verma as...himself and a cute Bindiya Goswami as the love interest. One will notice several cameos by stars like Rekha, Amitabh Bachchan etc. 'Gol Maal' presents several situations of confusion, suspense, and drama - all of it with a touch of comedy. The only thing that slightly irritated me was the poor cinematography as the camera was a little too shaky at times. I was watching it really late at night (a time during which most normal people have already entered REM sleep) and couldn't stop laughing. I think it would have been a lot more entertaining had I watched it with my parents (as was the case with 'Chupke Chupke'). Perhaps thats because there's the additional comedy of watching them laugh out loud.

jrameshjjj greatest of the comedy movies i have ever seen .Great hilarious work by both amol palekar and utpal dutt. the story revolves around ram prasad sharma and his boss . THE roll of the boss being played by utpal dutt .He want a person who can handle the accounts of his office .BUT he wanted the person 2 b unfamiliar with sports and films and parties.To get the service he acted as if he did not know anything about film and sports.He got the servicebut after sometime he had to play a double roll.after that he had few problems he had to cut his moustach and play a double roll. then after that he made one actress to play his mother . After that mother also played a double roll.

abhishekroy This movie is one of the best movies that Hrishikesh Mukherjee gave. A must see for everybody. I don't have words to express how much I like this movie. And I am yet to meet a person who did not like it. Too good.
