Director Indra Kumar’s fourth instalment of Dhamaal series has nothing new in the story but with a greater flavor of comedy and adventurous scenes.
The story revolves around Guddu Rastogi (Ajay Devgn), who wishes to marry Aalia (Esha Gupta), a widow with two kids. Jonny (Sanjay Mishra), a loyal friend of Guddu, always lives with him. Aalia puts a condition on marrying Guddu: only if her two kids allow it and accept Guddu as their father. Both kids reject Guddu initially, so Aalia plans an adventurous trip for her kids with Guddu so that they can have a better bond. On this trip, they meet Prithvi (Upendra Limaye), who discloses the secret of wealth, which was hidden on a secret island. A situation comes where not only Guddu but also a few more people like Adhoora (Ravi Kishan); Lallan (Riteish Deshmukh) and his wife Paaro (Anjali Anand); and Adi (Arshad Warsi) and Manav (Jaaved Jaafery) come to know about this secret. Finally, all of them secretly try to reach that island. Whatever happens there at the dangerous island is the real crux of the story. So, to know what happens in the end, one must watch it.
Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Mishra are the center of attraction in the film, and both have done a brilliant job. Apart from them, other artists like Ravi Kishan, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Jaaved Jaafery, and Upendra Limaye have also done justice to their parts. Riteish Deshmukh and Anjali Anand’s onscreen chemistry entertains the audience throughout. Both have fully justified their parts. Overall, every artist, including Esha Gupta and Sanjeeda Sheikh, has made their presence felt.
The film loses its grip till the very end due to the repeating plot from the previous Dhamaal, despite having a talented star cast and a respectable budget. With the exception of the comedic moments and on-screen chemistry between Riteish Deshmukh and Anjali Anand, the film loses its ability to make the audience laugh most of the time due to its repetitious plot and poorly written screenplay.
Overall, this is a mediocre comedy film that will make you laugh but won’t be able to keep your interest because, if you’ve already seen the Dhamaal series, you’ll always feel like you’re watching the first instalment. However, for those who haven’t seen the first instalment, this film might amuse you enough and feel like a paisa vasool film.
