Yamla Pagla Deewana, apt to the title brings together the three Deols Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol as never featured before in a film genre comprising of comedy, action and romance. The film begins in Canada, travels to Banaras and eventually makes its way to Punjab. The Father Son duo of Dharam Singh and Gajodhar Singh (Dharmendra and Bobby Deol) are the biggest conmen in Banaras. Their happy go lucky existence involves drinking and pulling off hilarious cons on unsuspecting people.

The only hitch in their perfect albeit notorious life arrives in the form of Paramveer Singh Dhillon (Sunny Deol). A brawny and honest NRI from Vancover, Paramveer lands up in Banaras claiming to be Gajodhar's elder brother separated at childhood. The duo willingly accepts Paramveer into their fold only to exploit his muscle power to serve their con games. Meanwhile Gajodhar falls in love with Saheba (Kulraj Randhawa), a beautiful Sardarni from Punjab. As their romance reaches its peak, her brothers arrive and forcibly take her away. Paramveer saves the day with a crazy plan to win the girl back for Gajodhar which leads them to the rustic heartlands of Punjab.

What follows is a rollercoaster ride showcasing the Great Indian Joint Family, Eccentric Relatives, Marriage Mayhem, and a classic case of Mistaken Identities! "Duniyawaalon! Iss kahaani mein Comedy hai! Action hai! Romance hai! Drama hai! Melodrama hai! Emotion hai!... Aur saala bahut saara Confusion hai!!"

This movie was entertaining and full of laughs for one that understood the story and jokes :p although it might be necessary for the watcher to have some background knowledge to understand many of the jokes, to a viewer that was aware, this movie was hilarious. Although the beginning of the movie was somewhat slow, it picked up a pace and never dropped from there. From jokes to a good story that one can finally enjoy with their family, this movie had it all. This story might not be original, but it did deliver the right punches at the right time to cast its own little spell on the viewers. The songs werent the best, but the actors did their job well. Not the best movie of the year, but def a movie that could be seen more than once. I rank this movie a 6.5/10.
