Unintentionally Funny, Must-Watch Bollywood Movies: We Are Family
Before we start, a retraction. A few of you were kind enough to point out that I’d picked on the Sex & The City 2 people a little unfairly on at least one count. So, let it be known that there are, in fact, women in Abu Dhabi who wear designer Versace outfits underneath their Burkhas. Apologies to the makers of the film. But your film was still shit.
Now, I am man enough to own up to a mistake when I make one. I will always call a spade a spade. As a corollary, you can safely assume that I will not call a card that is not a spade a spade. For example, you will *never* see me buy the rights to a semi-popular Hollywood flick, take a gazillion creative liberties with it, add my own Ekta Kapoor-esque ending, and market it as an official remake… Unlike the makers of this louliness of a film.
Couple of shoutouts to Atrisa & @MumbaiCentral here! I’m sure you lovely ladies can figure out your contributions to this comic. Many thanks! =)












1st comment!
Padh liya. Haan theek tha. Bas now I’m bored, demand 3D stick figures.
I dread to think how kareena or miss horseface would look like in 3D given the accurate description in this post
.
Well… Technically, at Size 0, Kareena in 3D and Kareena as stick figure is #samegal, non? =p
Your comics almost make me wish I watched Hindi movies.
Thank for living, Sahil Rizwan.
Group hug.
Lol…I love pouty Kareena! Good to see you back after sooo long… SIGH.
Haha !!
Back after a long time Sahil, but back with a bang !!
Group hug ?
Superb review! Thank god others believe Karan Johar is super shit!! Why can’t they come up with original ideas??
PS – loved the lolcats inspiration – kthxbai
Mind Numbing…..it hurt even while reading this…
The horse face…I say, whatte stroke of genius.
Awesome review…wish I had caught this before i went for the movie…nevertheless this review is HILARIOUS
Good stuff.. Sahil.. Way to go..
Good to c you back
WB
As usual greatttttttttt stuff.
Kareena’s face, What did i miss?, Aww…Group hug = Pure gold. *thumbs up*
Please don’t go back into sabbatical again. Keep them coming!
Horseface. Group hug. Auditory rape. Not a single detail missed. Mucho awesome!!!!
Finally you are back!
A lot of movies that are worth reviewing came during your hiatus! I am waiting for some of them!
Cheers!
Fantastic review as usual…I hope this film bombs big time…That will teach them to mess with The King…..
u gave the best dialouges to arjun rampal:)))
What’d i miss :X:X:X
awsome stuff man..
Sigh. Yet another film by Karan Johar that is aimed to numb the intelligence.
Ripping off Stepmom like this is an ultimate fail, uff.
Great Stuff Again. Since I am not going to watch this movie anytime, can any of the sufferers tell me who was the icon of whom this auditory rape was done?
The icon is Elvis Presley… they made a HUMUNGOUS mess out of his song!! By the way… awesome review!!
Jail house rock by Elvis Presley
You risked your sanity to write this review for us..we’re overwhelmed..great work..thanks, man
911? Isn’t this movie set in Australia?
Yea! Apparently, in Australia, the emergency services number is 000. But it’s cooler to say 911. No one would get the reference with the other number. =p
Good catch!
fortunately, i was here n i missed nothing. lol. great great job.
Sahil !!!
Hats offf to youuuuuu !!
The comics just get better =) Love the Horse face !!
Cheers !!
Brilliant!! Man i was wondering how long before the next one!! Finaly, we have another masterpiece!
*Karan Johar Rocks*
loved that horseface and the what’d i miss. and loved the color. keep them coming, man. at least every now and then.
Brilliant!!
Karan Johar movies at it again! Depiction filled with so unreal fanciful emotions & cliches. Thanks for ur authentic and insightful creativity. It puts us back with genuineness.
That drawing of kareena…..SO life-like, I thought I was seeing things.
And thanks very much for taking the time to censure what these monsters did to Jailhouse Rock…
Awesomeness! great efforts frm ur side..it shows..every panel is painstakingly and brilliantly done with good doses of sarcasm..BUT! kareena’s face?? she s pretty yaar!
n Yes..no sabbatical please!!!!!!
Dude Where TF is the SHolay Reunion on this strip ?
Who from Sholay was involved in this film?
Absolute pure win. Especially the equine Kareenaface and The auditory rape of Elvis Presley.
Karan Joker can go die in a hole now,kthxbai
WIN
I just got back from the movie and I see this! I should have just skipped the movie and read this instead!
Good one, Sahil
The last one was superb..!!! And yeah, I-phone is God level..!!
Welcome back..!!
What’d I miss?
The movie.
I’m glad.
ROFAMILYO
welcome back sahil..kjo brings in the best in you and this was no different…have started at that ‘censored panel’ and laughed hysterically for about 10 minutes after reading about that auditory rape!
great stuff once again man!
what did i miss :p
Hey Sahil,
Brilliant! I knew this movie was shit anyways…you just reaffirmed my faith in KJ
Awww..group hug!
The Yakult panel.. just bloody brilliant… Rizwan is back woo hooooooooo…..
amazingly brilliant! way to go group hug
Hillarious!!!
“What did I miss??” hahhahahhaha
God like iphone…hahahha…ROFL!!
Thanks Sahil!
Hi,
Sorry i’m new to short-forms…wat is ROFL?
And Sahil is back… thanks for this brilliant piece man, it was worth the wait…. ok lets not let us wait for this long….
Loved those pics about cliched locals…. brilliant piece, hope you won’t mind if we put yourpiece on our blog… kthanxbai
Hehe, thanks Kunal! Share away, I say! =D
Thanks Sahil…
Your blog makes me wish I saw Bolly movies man!!! This sounds like a bad remake of Stepmom though? (not that Stepmom was a good movie)
@Maria
You got that right. It is a very bad remake of Stepmom. The tragedy is that the King’s legacy was also tarnished with a loony cover of Jailhouse Rock.
You have to stop such awesomely funny reviews! It makes me wanna watch all these dumasses in action!
Ok ignore that.. next review please!
Sahil .. missed u man . Lets be frank it wasnt one of ur best works but u still managed quite a few good ones .
Waitin for the next awesome comic from the master .
Cheers !!!
Hehe, thanks Amit! Maybe a little rusty from the break. =)
Brilliant as always – horseface / khurpa chin was awesome. Respect !!
Last nail in the coffin! excellent mr. sahil!
Thank you, all! =)
For the people who asked, the blacked out panel is indeed the mutilation of Elvis Presley’s ‘Jailhouse Rock’. *Shudder*
Also, Kareena was supposed to have a pouty face… Not a horseface!
Meh, whatever works.=p
That crap imitation makes me cringe everytime I hear it
But IMHO if there is anyone who looks marginally less horse-like than SJP, it’s gotta be Kareena!!!
“If she had a body to match her face, her parents could enter her in the derby.”
You back for real? or just picking on Karan Johar?
Awesome piece!!
Great to have you back in action…finally!!
Hey Sahil..
Good to have you back.I was bored of re reading all your previous posts.
Anyways waiting for more now…
There were so many masterpieces released in the past few weeks that you have missed.
Hope you have time to do their reviews.
sahil this is too good ! Waiting for you to review MALLIKA … Plz review it my main man !
Have finally found a reason to be happy that kjo makes what he makes – that reason is you
will spend the rest of my free moments trolling through your older reviews, yah!
Haha well done , interesting and funny (unlike the actual movie )
keep up the good work
Haha! LOVED the censored bit! and Group HUG! DUDE you rock!!!!!!! PLease write on GHajini
Thanks so much for the review. I was so glad to see you back for this. No one rips a KJo movie like you. Hope this movie FLOPS big time and teach the people involved NOT to copy movies whether he pays for it or not.
EPIC!
I’ve been reading your comic strips for some time, but this is my first comment. That was just so spot on. If only the super rich movie makers with all the film-making access in the world had this much brain. Thanx so much for this!
Dude. Youh. God. :O
*applause* =D
Like, the iPhone is a revolutionary device which enables you to find out drunkard teenage girls without any contact with their girlfriends! WooHoo. Pervert Pwnage.
sent from my iPhone
Brilliant piece of work! Your reviews are just out of the world! Mind-blowing!
Running out of words actually!
Keep up the good work! (:
u are an #epic..what did i miss..heheh
And the karoke with live musicians (towards the end of the audio ra*e of the classic)…and doctor’s only advice throughout the movie…”go tell him, go tell her, go tell kids…”, the best way to break news bout your expected death to your near ones…order a pizza
…Iphone…sorry god-phone…brilliant stuff Sahil…
The Vigil Idiot, now in technicolor. EPIC!
The Kill ! Group Hug
Awesome!!! Good to have you back!!! (Group Hug) Btw totally agree, Auditory Rape, of The King’s Jailhouse Rock… …
The strip is superb!! Maybe We can reconsider the “Charity Fund” :p
*clap* *clap* *clap*
Fantastic work!! hope to see more hindi movies spoofed here!!!!
What did i miss? I guess, ur reviews since ur last one.
Anyway, this was totally Awww…*group Hug*
kthxbai
This was worth the wait, thank you Sahil.
(And Kareena’s face, genius)
er- shouldnt it be hair fall from the chemo (cervical cancer AFAIK does not cause hair fall)
just saying
Yea, it was supposed to say “Hair loss from the cancer treatment…” Silly mistake. Thanks for the heads up! =)
Heh heh, the movie was bad enough in English the producers must have drooled over the phenomenal drama quotient this script offered. Thanks for saving me a bomb. Why didn t you do I hate love stories before I watched it?
wily
First, thanks for resuming your reviews. I had missed them sorely the last few months.
Second, not having seen Stepmom, I just now started to read its script. Would you believe it was exactly like reading your comic strip?! I could only manage a few pages before bailing. It read as if it was written by Karan Johar himself.
I know i know, most of said before in above comments, so very brief 3 points:
1) “What did i miss??” Awesome!
2) Respect to Elvis. Love you.
3) Welcome *freaking* back dude!! (Emotionally falling into the group hug *sob*)
Dude!! you rock…well i am a pretty old reader, but never commented out of sheer laziness….but today i had no work and this one is hilarious so here i am….i loved the cheek bones of size zero kareena, and the “group hug” and “WHAT ‘D i miss??” ….you’re awesome….kudos!!!
looks like u’ve been wrkin on ur cinematography during d hiatus
welcome back dude…missed u…
Not up there with your best which is understandable since you’re coming from a long hiatus. It was still enjoyable nevertheless. The graphic interpretation of Kareena was bang on! Can’t stand that bitch.
And I hope that you haven’t decided to skip out on the releases in between. There were some pretty good (or should I say bad) ones such as I Hate Luv Storys and Aisha. Oh god please don’t spare Aisha. I felt violated after watching that crap!!!
this is my 1st comment on this blog. u ve done a great job, looks like its just like step mom albeit with a stupid climax scene
You guys stop criticizing Karan Johar. It is because of him that we have such a hilarious comic strip.
Hey,
Your comic strip reflected exactly my thoughts. There was another part where the two leading actresses leave the house in search of the eldest party girl, leaving the two kids alone at home…what form of responsiblity is that??
Anyway, was quite impressed and pleased to read your insight into the movie’s discrepency’s.
OSUM
Epic Fail.Amazingly Trolled. And I believe you have done your bit of trolling on /b/.
You my friend are a part of the cancer xD
Very glad to have you back after a long time! Really enjoy your style, it’s not the usual funny Bollywood movie review routine. Please continue coming up with such gems more frequently. I am sure Bollywood will continue to provide enough fodder to ruminate on
just stumbled across this page while doing a search for “karan johar is an idiot” or sumthin like that…. haha… too funny…. best movie review i’ve ead in eonsss .. thanks
ha ha ha .. OMG …ROFLMFAO … and I guess I didn’t miss a thing.
That was too good.
Earlier directors stole movie ideas and made shit and ppl with greater exposure to H’wood movies found out about the theft and called them liars.
Guess KJ is from a new breed, he still re-uses movie idea and makes shit. So now since he buys the ideas he can’t be called a stealers, let’s just call him a shitter !!
Apart from what are mentioned… meditative locations across New South Wales. Lol … Keep’em coming.
The cartoon was fun but so boring and lengthy, I can imagine how the film would be. Perhaps shorter strips would tell the same story, much better too Mr Reviewer.
omglmfao: yakult probiotic milk FTW ;P
“Happily ever after” roflmao!
Jio mere raaja… aab jai ke review nikli.
Absolutely Lved this… ” I am here what did i miss???”
That kid that keeps asking for group hugs reminds me of me
Whatte waaw! You put horseface on Kareena. Waaw!
And then there is the bespectacled, group hug person. I lowe heem! Very cool comics after a long times…
Great job! As someone else said before me, thanks for living
not the best one but funny still….keep it coming……
one ques whoz the guy at the back of each panel??
@ farham – i think thts the brother….
Anyways, dint find it tht funny…i have seen better ones….
The censored panel had me laffing maniacally! HOW KaranJohar and Kajol could do that is a question for anthropologists to figure out!! To bear THAT in a movie which already had Arjun Rampal and Kareena to skullf*** your senses…*shudder*..What lengths you go to for your readers Rizzu!!
Fida hogayi aapki dedication pe! ..but yeah..Sholay reunion was required!
P.S : Films tht required vigilidiotage-
IHLS and Aisha..atleast
and im just curious…would you hate on Dabangg ?
Firstly – great work Sahil – I think your work is pure comic genius!
Read a review online:
http://www.timeslive.co.za/sundaytimes/article653215.ece/Kajol-Kareena-tops-in-superb-tear-jerker
Can you believe this guy?!!! xD
Just have to echo this: thanks for living.
And this: never go back on sabbatical.
Loved the panels. Just one question: missed the joke in the last panel. Usually one doesnt need to watch the film, the review itself explains everything. This time, I couldn’t understand what the last panel meant….
Help?
First, thanks for introducing some colour into the strip this time…you’re getting better.
Now when’re you gonna do Dabangg and Kites?
hey…awefuckinsome… hope it gets u good press… if u read HT, ur blog got covered along with flyufools… great work… touched by group hug*aWWW*
Sahil, gr8 work here……………i was ROFLOL the whole time while reading this review……..but just a humble request, pls don’t be so inconsiderate and so critical of K Jo’s movies, what if he stops making his style of movies, we’ll be left with very little entertainment in the “Vigil Idiot” reviews…. don’t u think, u owe u’r fame to a large extent to him for u’r reviews of MNIK, Kurbaan and now We are Family…….lol
Suggestions:
Why don’t u start a section something called as classics, and review some of the pasts so called “super hits”……….. all the movies of SRK can feature in it, like Dil to Pagal hai, Mohabbatein, DDLJ, including our fav K jo’s classics like KKHH, K3G, KANK, am sure u’ll get a lot of juices to write on, these movies are actually tailor made for u’r reviews……….
sahil I am so happy that you finally wrote something.. but like a greedy girl.. I want MORE.. plz plz keep continuing..
waiting very eagerly…
A nice one yet again Rizwan. Been following this ever since. I have tried my hand at strippin movies in stick figure style since I found scope in mockin at south movies too.
http://biscuithief.blogspot.com/
Keep rocking.
Sorry to say but it is not even close to this one. And stop calling South. You should strictly call it Tamil
Wot mean kthxbai ?
some ladies are not liking Karina ? are they burning or what ?
Hey Sahil. I was travelling this week and saw HUGE crowds in Mumbai and Udaipur outside halls, waiting for this movie and for DABBANNGG! (I love saying that word). I was also on a longish flight where the in-flight movie was (wait for it) PAATHSHAALA, which I have never seen but I remembered your comic about it from ages ago. So, as much as I tried to watch new episodes of Weeds and Mad Men on the laptop I ended up looking up at the screen of the person watching it next to me. No sound but English subtitles for exxxtra hilarity. LIKEFUCKMEDEAD. Longest flight EVERRR!
I was just going to post here, “Dude are you dead??”
This one came after such a huge gap! And I didn’t even get the notification for it..
Loved the what did i miss part
Thumbs up!
Where were u??? So many master pieces went by…
Keep the idiot alive..!!
Great Work man..!!
Not that funny… Losing your touch of late. Cricinfo effect maybe!
This is hilarious..can u imagine i saw the movie i read after this post…and at every scene i was laughing more than i could have laughed after watching All d best or golmaal…
i love ur posts…i think u should write more often..and please oh please…need a comic strip on aisha..its like such a must!
I saw the movie after reading this…was LOLing half the time!!
awesome this was…keep it up!
It couldn’t have got any better than it already is! I guess this beats the Sex and the City 2 spoof! Great work Sahil! Please treat your readers with more spoofs! You can really make someone’s day with such hilarious stuff and it really makes a difference! My day was not that great but I ended it on a smiley note! Thanks to you!
Cheers!
Fawsome! Much needed break on a mind-numbing afternoon. Not better than sex, but much better than coffee.
This is as boring and as mundane and as crappy as the movie. On second thought, the movie was better.
omg… i jus happened to watch ‘shutter’(english) n then ‘click’(hindi) pathetic movies both!
I haven’t seen this movie yet and I don’t intend to but I like your way much better.
I laaav you!!
Write more often!!
Hey Sahil , very innovative penning of movie reviews … is there a positivity around your reviews in any of the posts … asking out of curiosity?
Exceptional Work!!
