Unintentionally Funny, Must-Watch Bollywood Movies: Paathshala
04/26/10
Paathshala is an epic look at the state of our school system today. About how the commercialization of education will be the end of us and, separately, how reality TV shows exploit children for ratings. Well, at least that’s what I *think* they were going for. What the final product actually ended up looking like is a territory best left uncharted. Unfortunately, chart it, I did. And, this, for your consideration.
SUGGESTED READING – The man whose intelligence knows no limits… or punctuation marks. http://twitter.com/shahidkapoor
Smugman, indeed! Hehehehe! Maybe the abrupt ending was cos the folks are planning a sequel
A sequel you say? *shock*horror*shock*
Wait.. Wha…? What did it start with and wtf did it end with?! Absolutely hilarious, though.. great work, Sahil!
Loved the cape
Good work, this one! I’m still laughing
Absolutely loved the cape … n the smugman name ….
Dayyam!
they finally outdid prince….
it’s shahid kapoor teaching english, n u care bout Sahil dying after Prince?
ROFLMFAO
btw…lacking your edgy sarcasm….await your review on Apartment…
p.s.: no fodder in phoonk 2….u might wanna cnosider jus blowing over it…..
ROFLMFAO
My younger cousins picked this out last weekend. Being the elder sister I paid for and sat through this torture while a woman next to me sniffled and sighed!
But this comic sorta made up for it. God bless you!
lol. wow.. words fail me.
btw, checked out The English Teachers Tweets, and YIKES! CRIKEY! Holy Chalk Dust.. someone stole all his punctuations. For real. And left him with a surplus of full-stops. A subtle suggestion, i think..
Maybe having a cousin who is a much loved Lit Prof in one of the best colleges in Delhi qualifies him to play teacher teacher. Maybe that’s all research film-stars need for such roles. And isn’t there an actual chain of schools run by the RSS by the name Sarasvati Vidya Mandir? Jo bhi.
As always Smugman saves the day and all is right with the world. 3 cheers for Hindi cinemah. F*** you Vigil Idiot.
Sholay reunion reference was a total bouncer this time around.
And the majestic Ayesha Takia was just an eye-candy for mr. smug? Sadness!
Good work… Cheers..!!
Loved the cape. Awesome.
But why no mention of Ayesha Takia?
Vigil Idiot, unfortunately not your best, but I’m guessing you work with what you’re given! I guess, I’m just used to rolling on the floor stuff when it comes to your comics!
hahahahaha… hilarioussss…. \m/
Mr.smugness!!! LOL
N WHAT an ending man! Such a logical conclusion… never seen b4. Think Mr.Smugness got tired of all the good deeds n working non-stop for the noble intelligent kaam… so declared “The End” ……
Btw, no mention of Mr.smugness’s Miss sunny smiles??? THAT short a role that Even you edited her out?? not a single panel! or is it something else?
Oh …. I loved the puddle of tears around everyone…. LMAO. N da cape on him… superb!!!
Awesome comic!
You rock dude! Amazin sarcasm…. Btw, can we guess you didnt have the patience to take up Ramu’s Rs 10 lac challenge regardin phoonk ?
No reviews…….. anyway, waitin fr ‘apartment’…
Cheers
I actually watched it coz u didnt review it last week
hehhe…funny as usual…
Why do these people waste money making such rotten movies…?
Waiting for your next review
is it a bird.. is it an airplane…. no..its SMUGMAN!!
PS: the puddle of tears.. GENIUS!! still laughing!!
a) Shahid Kapur is Schizophrenic. He thinks he’s Shah Rukh Khan.
b) I LOVE the cape
c) I’m glad you’re not dead. Don’t die.
d) Why us Ayesha Takia not in the scheme of things?
Loving it!
Seriously worse than Prince! u missed that trustees and the principal to wear a uniform…an ill fitting jacket!
Oh I love that last panel! Fabulous man!
Another piece of awesomeness !!! Though disappointed by no Ayesha Takia references…..I thought she’d be excellent fodder, considering her *ahem* assets….
BTW, in the 7th panel from bottom, did u cut/paste the row of students to make it look like a crowded assembly ? NAd then, in the next panel, they disappear and we’re left with just one row !! And what’s with the shorty student in the middle ???!!!
nice one… again the last panel is gr8.. good work man…
whoa this was one of ur funniest reiviews!i luv shahid’s refernce as self-righteous smugman!totally rofl!!this thing has some good witty,spontanious/obvious quotes tht the movie shuld hav had.keep on writing reviews like this:)
Silence! Smugman has spoken!
I think that may be my new all-purpose quote.
The only thing that kept me going till interval was how beautifully this will be stripped
( and 200 ka ticket 
)
You what will be intentionally funny? Watching the movie now with this review in mind – which is very much what I intend to do.
The industry could seriously do with more critics like you, I say. Go get ‘em!
gauri
ROFLMAO
epicpwnage..yet again! so, you died another death to make us laugh another time!
am sure you’d get more people watching this strip than those who watched this dayyam movie
panel with everyone in the pool of their own tears – awesome
Sorry about my ignorance folks, but what’s Dayyam?
‘Damn’.
another Raaking review; but who am i to say this. Smugman has already spoken
The Sholay reference was a bouncer. I mean, you need someone from the Sholay-crew to really make that joke work, no? Unless I am missing something…
Agree with RS: panel with everyone in the pool of their own tears – awesome
Came back to read this one a second time
Forgot to say this earlier – loved the panel with those pools. Tears, pee, who can tell?
This year movies are going to vie with each other for best ‘worst ever’ award.
You have a gift Sahil!
@ Ashs tampa: HAHAHHAHAHA…THIER OWN PEE???
HAHAHA…… makes sense too………….!!!!
btw i thought uw ere atlaking abt SRK the whole time!!!
Ignorant me 
THE NEW SMUGMAN IS HERE…YIPPPEEEEEEEE
update at regular intervals na… so that we have a fixed slot to wait for the next one

Hey sahil.. thanks for the hilarious review. Now “Housefull” awaited desperately… this movie deserve your review.
A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!! freaking hilarious dude!
Nice very good work:) Thanks for posting it. All cast of this movie is my favourite. Thanks again.
Still no new ones ???!!!!!!!! It’s been 3 weeks !!!! C’mon dude ! You can’t have a large following AND the luxury of skipping weeks……..we are very demanding, you know ! We need our weekly dose of Sahil humor to keep us going…….
Housefull HAS to be the next one on your agenda !! It is BEYOND description !!
Do ‘Badmaash Company’! Please please, pretty please!
pliz do another review. my bheja’s rather fried and could do with some humour of your sort.
nothing since 26/04?
Where are you? Been coming back every single day for close to 3 weeks now!!!
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude………….not cool. So many gems coming out in the recent weeks……Housefull, Badmaash Company…..and no squeak from you ???
Please do a review for Kites…absolutely boring movie…wasted 3 hours ! Atleast reading ur review will make the experience less painful.
Why aren’t we making fun of Kites??
Where have you disappeared? I’m eagerly waiting for the Kites strip!
hohohoohh………the cape gets my vote……
I love the way you leave a blank box for the moments when all logic is lost. Good work. Now, I want to see all those movies you ridiculed. Your reviews should come out in dailies. Maybe that’ll help draw the crowds.
Can some1` pls explain the Sholay reunion thing?I am unable to get the sarcasm
Hahaha ..I am awesome like that ..haha …i feel like I have seen the whole movie
