Unintentionally Funny, Must-Watch Bollywood Movies: London Dreams
11/02/09
London Dreams tells us the story of a small-town man… A small-town man who has only one dream in life… The dream to play in front of a packed house at Wembley… Scratch that – To play Hindi Indipop in front of a packed house at Wembley! Now, as far as small-town dreams go, they don’t come any fuckeder-upper than this… So props to whoever came up with this lil’ gem of a plot premise… Because, Wow!
If not visible, yous all can download the strip from here.
“Shakes head in disgust, disapproval and gives up.” Brilliant stuff! Torn between wishing there were more reviews every month and getting rid of this foul bile taste caused by the thought that actual people spend real money to entertain themselves with non-parody versions of this!
This is getting quite ridiculous. I haven’t seen any movie in months, being warned off by your very awesome reviews (and rightly so, who wants to watch this tripe?) but honestly, what is Bollywood coming to? And if I’m not mistaken isn’t this a story they wrote a million years ago and kept getting shelved? They actually thought this was worth holding on to?
*fails to understand how people’s minds work*
Nice. I loved the last TURN TURN artwork.Loved the remaining too.:) Keep em coming.
Hahahaha…friggin awesome…love the “last scene”!!!
@Prashant: Hehe! Can’t roast every release without the requisite awfulness and unintentional hilarity, right? Plus This, right here, is about the full tolerance capacity I have for movies that fall in the aforementioned category. Tryin’ to work my way up the chain, though. =)
@Kanksha: Now I just feel bad! You can, of course, watch Bollytripe anytime you want, provided you have the adequate preparation. I have my very own warm-up drill which involves liberal doses of alcohol and finding friends who have a good sense of humour to give you company – Patent Pending! =D
@Aditi : Will do. =)
@Reuben : Already covered you over on Facebook, so there.. =p
Wembley! I lash myself for thee… to wash myself of this, A-SIN.. lol
First time here. Absolutely hilarious! ROFL… But somehow, it made me wanna watch this movie!
Dude, that’s the gayest thing ever..LMFAO!!!
This was brilliant dude. I#ll let u know my views on the movie. Coz I was so disgusted by the utter lameness of this one. I was scratching my head and hands throughout the movie and my mouth was about to burst out with all the abusive gyaan that I had. WTF was Vipul Shah thinking???
Awesome work man! I ‘m stream the movie and laugh my f***ing ass out
Why oh why did i not read this review before i witnessed a visual disaster?
this is worth the movie ticket! not the movie!!!!! I haven’t been this entertained even at the movies in a long long time! Thank you!!!
Dude… that was MIND NUMBINGLY BRILLIANT!
I don’t think Bollywood Movies can get any more Fun than THIS!
THE LAST SCENE & THE SCENE WHERE HES FLOGGIN HIMSELF ARE INSANE!
the SARCASM was MAD!!!
Keep it up bro… will await more
Thankings peoples! =)
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooperrrrrrrrrrrr!
Dude!

Seriously awesome blog.
Can i send you like 10 times the movies ticket money i shelled for such movies?
Thats how entertaining reading your blog is.
[Its actually a 1000 times more entertaining, but i can't afford to pay you that much
Hah! I will actually take you up on that offer man! Don’t make false promises and let a man down! XD
Thanks though, really! Much appreciated! =)
>>Can i send you like 10 times the movies ticket money i shelled for such movies?
Oasis? Granted, watching Man City all their lives could drive someone to suicide but they were still alive last time i checked.
The members are all alive, but the band broke up. So to mark the death of the band, you see? =)
Hey! You missed some of the comic gems of London dreams
1. The hand shaking like a leaf in the (storm-fan created) wind after (at the most) 3-4 days of drug and alcohol abuse.
2. A-sin’s rock ho’ look. and dancing. and asin.
3. PRAAAA mera PRAAA, PRAAAA, PRAAAA…..PRAAAA. (At bhatinda, on forgiveness trip)
4. My personal Fav. “Maine drugs ki hai, Cocaine, METHANE, and Marijuana..”
Salman Khan accepts he smokes Gobar Gas. I got my tickets worth right there.
He says Methane? Methane?! He says Methane, and I missed it?! X-(
Why would they even try using itna dimag? :s I sure have a good gut feeling about movies that are gonna screw up! looking forward to the reviews of de dana dan
Oh! oh! if you are talking bout leaving london for bhatinda please post a review on swades…
Hehe, will have to wait for the next time it reruns on TV so that I can brush up on all the finer details. =) I don’t remember thinking of it as all that bad though. Probably because of AR Rahman’s music though, that.
Awesome, awesome blog. Nifty artwork
, but the dialogues are the stuff ROFLMAO dreams are made of. Keep at it, man.
P.S. As regards the four Kabristan notables, I am pretty sure they must be still doing cartwheels
Great stuff…just LOL…. And I feel your reviews accurately sum up what is in the movie…Wonderful…keep it coming!!!
Thanks A & A. =)
oh i love how all the great rock artistes turned in their grave….muaahhahahaha….
awesome stuff bro….may your tribe increase…..no really!!!!
Now, as far as small-town dreams go, they don’t come any fuckeder-upper than this…I laughed the most reading this. *Sides aching*
Thanks all! I’m not actively doing any publicity right now. It’s all been word of mouth. So tribe expansion rests solely on you readers. May the force be with you, my children! =D
Hey this blog is just awesome.
Did you notice that this movie has been copied (most of the scenes) from the Hollywood movie “Amadeus”?
Salman Khan plays the role of Mozart here…hahahahahaha
I’ve actually had Amadeus on my watch list forever now. Still haven’t gotten around to seeing it. I don’t doubt anything you said for a second though! XD
Holy-lord-snorting-cocaine! This is excellent shit, dude. Please do all the movies you can find into such comicstrips. On the converse of what someone said, I’m watching all these movies now simply because the review makes them sound improbably funny… Maybe they’re just being marketed wrong. There’s a thought.
Good language + kickass sense of humour = plenty of readers and very good fun.
Thanks for getting the formula right (even though Bollywood has been trying different formulae for years and #failing all the while!)
BRILLIANT!
Thanks Sona & Ramaa! I try! =)
One of the best ever review by anybody! I got introduced to your site just today and I have already come so far!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks Kalyan! Hope you keep reading! =)
Make writing such scripts an unbailable offense!
“find a south indian groupie cum backup dancer chock .. dhik-chik ..” rofl!! you are very good man .. certainly sumbling on your blog is the higlight of my day ..
Hehe, thanks Ramesh!
@Arpan: Don’t say that man! I’ll be out of a job! =p
hey sahil,
this is so on the button … i just loved the wit and in-ur-face sarcasm … y’know, u probably have a great future in script writing… bollywood-style …. if u ever want to consider a career change … lolz
Nah! Will never get into that. Not after doing this. Hehe, those who can’t do, review. =p
turn!!
hey there! I stumbled on your blog by accident and man I love it. great work. looking forward to new blockbuster fil– err strips
the penultimate panel is awesome … salman with his current weight issues would have just fallen off the stage …. heheehehe….
ooh and the last one too…
i am a fan !!!
I think i fell off my chair guffawing after “turn”..im a fan..(bows in respect)
I must’ve read about 5 of your comic strips in the last hour or so coz I just couldn’t stop after one! I am so going keep track of these now. And this bit from above: “Break into a melodramatic speech about his dreams… in front of a full-house… in motherfuckin’ Wembley… *Narrator shakes head in disgust, disapproval and gives up” – I think it’s rather inappropriate to make people laugh like they have no business being in office the way I did! Really, keep up the great work!
Definitely a huge fan!
