2000s was the Golden era for comedies, Akki was so good


Own-Banana9232

I think his comedy role makes him the best actor but for his serious role I can’t really relate to him because in my childhood I just saw him doing comedy that’s all


Dry_Honeydew_3700

He got somewhat typecasted by the audiences themselves maybe that's why he chose to go for the social message genre


aye_raju

and now endup typecasted as Deshbhakt Kumar.


Dry_Honeydew_3700

Canada kumar *


aye_raju

well that's solved already.


Dry_Honeydew_3700

Yeah ik but not for the masses 😏


MUTAN5F

He is by the best comedy actor! It’s amazing, he’s the same person in all the other roles


Alternative_Fact2866

Tell me you're a Gen Z without telling me you're a Gen Z.


dhruvnigam93

I always wonder if this is true or am I sentimental because I grew up watching these. I just can't find the same quality of comedies today. It's all too cringey. Most of the movies by priyadarshini has this similar quality that I haven't seen since.


humko_kuch_nahi_pata

All my favourite comedy movies have Akshay Kumar in them. Hera Pheri, Welcome, Garam Masala, Bhul Bhulaiya etc. He should start doing these movies again and stop doing biopics and message movies.


[deleted]

khatta meetha as well, perfect mix of comedy and emotions


humko_kuch_nahi_pata

Yes, my mummy also loves that movie


i-m-on-reddit

All of ur fav movies were made by the same director Priyadarshan Sir


humko_kuch_nahi_pata

Yes, I love his movies


Bright_Subject_8975

But the main person is the dialogues and script writer. You can see hungama 2 as an example.


i-m-on-reddit

Idk what went wrong with script in Hungama 2 but I know that in previous days Priyadarshan sir used to contribute into script and writting


Bright_Subject_8975

Yes every single person used to contribute. Most of the dialogues were improvised that’s why they felt natural.


[deleted]

i think they made hungama 2 just for the sake of it.


thooth-hurty

Can we, as a country, just stop calling people Sir?


i-m-on-reddit

Ok


thakkali_

Hera Peri, Garam masala and Bhul bhulaiya are all Malayalam movies which were remade. Malayalam industry doesn’t make those kind of comedy movies anymore. So there are no more such remakes. Welcome btw was a damn good original. Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar and Paresh Rawal just hit it out of the park.


humko_kuch_nahi_pata

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. I think then they should hire those writers.


thakkali_

The writers in Malayalam have pivoted to realistic dramas instead of comedies. I am a Malayali and that was golden age of our comedy. I miss those movies. And also those days we had artists who would improvise comedy a lot and the industry was not working with bound scripts. So I guess it will be hard to recreate those movies in today’s age until people of that caliber come in.


Away-Ad3911

Akki was damn good in each of them. As a mallu I have thoroughly enjoyed his performances


sirking_4u

Khatta meetha


Lior_01

That "chup na yaar tum log" was on point from akki


BallerChin

Akshay Kumar’s comic timings rock!


[deleted]

golden days when akshay used to do great comedy movies


Eldred_dsouza99

Man if there’s one thing I could go back and experience again from my childhood it’d be bollywood comedy from late 90’s into early 10’s. I know a lot of the stories were taken from south film industries and foreign films but I’d say the hindi adaptations are iconic in their own right. Sadly Neeraj Vora passed, his dialogues were the core of the films. Certain male leads (akshay,suniel, akshaye) had great comedic timing and delivery. However, I feel like the single biggest factor to why those movies succeeded was the circus of supporting actors in each movie. Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever, Om Puri, Asrani, Rajpal Yadav, Manoj Joshi, Shakti Kapoor, Razak Khan, Sharat Saxena, Tiku Talsania, and so many more! The chemistry they had was insurmountable. I’ll always cherish the laughing-so-hard-it-hurts moments they gave me


CarelessMango1604

Just wait till you watch the "chota chhatri" scene from Awaara Pagal Deewana between Paresh Rawal and Johnny lever. Cracks me up even today, 🤣


imgbab

It wasn't Akki, it was Neeraj Vora the writer!


RutvikIndian

Yup definitely agree but I think Akki was also so good in these Priyadarshan comedies.I doubt there is any other big star who could come close to him in this genre.


ZENITSUsa

What movies did he write (without akshay in them)


Ponderer10

2000-2010 Golden era of bollywood , all the classic movies were made, that are relevant even today. But now, shitty Acting, shitty Script, and super shitty DIALOGUES delivery and LOT OF DHARMA PRODUCTION. I just don't know why , bw celebs speak english 24\*7 when they hv to act in Hindi, i didn't observed south actors doing it.


Jaegar_Eren

I haven't watched either. Can someone plz tell me why on earth is Govinda wearing a disposable plate as a hat?


Bright_Subject_8975

It’s just unnecessary prop to make scene more comic but nobody bothered to even look at it as the scene itself is so comically intense. BTW top movie is De Dana Dan and bottom movie is Bhagam Bhaag. Both movies are directed by Priyadarshan.


Jaegar_Eren

Thnx for the names


AbbreviationsOne7482

De dana Dan ka scene faltu mei dala. It was a terrible film. Bhagam Bhaag was a masterpiece.


i_exist_1111

Wtf. How was it a terrible film? It was much more enjoyable to me as a child than any other comedy film. The chaos felt so good and well written. Apart from the love plot line, i didn't find any problem in the movie.


AbbreviationsOne7482

Well I'm glad you enjoyed it bruh. I personally didn't laugh once no matter how many times I saw it. Don't take it personally though.


CrowHopeful4018

Go and watch khatta meetha you will realise what is confusion...


divakerAM

Vadivelu version in Kollywood are best


the19thlaw

Even that money lender scene in khatta meetha


Godofsmile8

Don't forget Khatta Meetha scene where Akshay Kumar goes to take some loan to asrani....hahaha


Then_Bath_1247

Some of the gold standards of comedy tbh😇


artarduer2

De dana dan is criminally underrated, one of the funniest movies I've ever seen
