Hey people, this is yet another fun post I could not stop myself from writing. This is all about how movies were in the 90’s. Recently, I got a wonderful opportunity to go to Baroda to conduct a training session. After a day long session, I headed to the hotel for some rest. This is where this post begins. Garam panni sey nahaney key baad, I switched on for some entertainment. Source: apna purana TV. After channel surfing and watching Aasta pey baba ka prawachan and PTC Punjabi pey thoda bhangra, I decided to settle for some prolonged entertainment.
Set Max, 90’s movie print, Govinda and Sonali Bendre. What else could I ask for? I knew I was in for some great entertainment. I became sure when the villain of the movie was Shakti Kapoor, (Aooooohhhhh!). Thou I started watching the movies half way thru, I could gauge what was happening. Hero ki ek behen, heroine ka ek bhai, ek corrupt horny inspector; no prizes for guessing apna Shakti Kapoor. Instead of describing the entire movie, I’ll tell you about a song fromm the movie.
Govinda whose name is Raju (How innovative!), Bendre whose name is Paroooo (ha ha ha ha), is liked by the lustful eyes of Shakti Kapoor (Surya Dev Singh). Bendre has an evil mama (uncle) who is called Mama through out the movie. He hates Bendre and her brother who is now dead. Confused? Me too yaar. So the scene is Bendre brother is dead and her Uncle is not supportive about taking the body home. Still wondering about the song where it can be placed? Keep reading, keep reading. He wants the morgue authorities to burn the body in the electricity ka bhatti. I was like WTF? Abey tu kya pagal ho gaya hai kya. But, with no time to waste, apna Raju lands at the morgue. Why? He has to save somebody who is already dead. But, apna Raju saves the day. He takes the body and Bendre too. Waaah! Macho haan.
Day 2. Shakti Kapoor is all pissed off with Govinda saving Bendre. But, Shakti Kapoor ek rapist hi nahi bakey ek corrupt police inspector bhi hai. So, all alone he reaches where apna Govinda and Bendre. Apna local couple studies in the same college. When Shakti is dragging Bendre, Boom! Raju all dressed in checked shirt, which has a purple t-shirt and a bunch of pals with mullets and high-rise pants and white Action sports shoes shows up. He pulls Paroo towards himself and Shakti Kapoor kay ahkoon key samney Paroo smooches, I repeat smooches Raju. Lucky little ba****d.
Can you guess what happens next? Song! Song! I was like ha ha ha ha ha. Abey ha ha ha ha. This was an extreme case scenario. Achanak song chalo. The lyrics go something like, “Jab majnoo merrey saath, tho bech mein kya karega karela?” Ha ha ha. The whole fuc**in song has such euphemistic statements. To add on, Raju’s mullet-ted friends danced all thru the song and backed him in mocking Shakti Kapoor. The whole sequence was so funny; I could not stop my ass of. To end this post, I must say, Govinda is the best. Reason he managed to get me hooked to the movie for more than half of it. Too good Raju.
