Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Chrysanthepop 'Do Knot Disturb' is one of the worst movie I've seen recently. David Dhawan has a reputation of ripping off other films and his movies look overtly glossy, colourful and very tacky. 'Do Knot Disturb' is no different at all. I suppose Bollywood has run out of Hollywood movies to copy so now they have started copying French movies. 'Do Knot Disturb' rips off 'La Doublure'. 'La Doublure' itself was by no means a great movie but it looked classy and made me laugh at times. 'Do Knot Disturb' can only be compared to a cheap knockoffs that nobody wants to buy. It's cringeworthy from start to finish. However, since I heard that it starred Sushmita Sen and Rituparna Sengupta, I thought there might be something to look forward to. I wasn't aware of the rest of the cast. Sengupta is wasted in a miniscule role and Sen, what was she thinking when she signed on for this? Govinda and Ranvir Shorey are at their worst. I've never thought of Deshmukh as a great actor but here he achieves a new level of crappiness. Sohail Khan is among the worst actor ever and he's never even done a passable movie let alone good. I should have checked out the cast list beforehand, then I would have avoided this.
sumanbarthakursmailbox A long time ago in a galaxy not so far away, Govinda and David Dhawan were a formidable actor-director team who you could count on to deliver a few good laughs. Much time has passed since, but the duo is still flogging the same formulas over and over again. Their latest collaboration, Do Knot Disturb is a flat-out rip-off of the French comedy, The Valet, but if you didn't know that you'd say it's a rejig of their own previous films, Saajan Chale Sasural and Kyonkii Main Jhooth Nahin Bolta, with a generous helping of the director's Biwi No 1 thrown in for good measure. Govinda stars as the cheating husband of a suspicious millionaire wife Sushmita Sen who hires private-eye Ranvir Shorey to follow her husband's every move when she chances upon a photograph of her spouse with sexy item-girl Lara Dutta. To hide his affair from his wife, Govinda tracks down Ritesh Deshmukh, a waiter who can also be spotted in the picture, and pays him to pretend that the siren is in fact, his girlfriend. The wife is not fooled; she plays the situation for what it's worth, making her husband jealous of his mistress' new living arrangement with the waiter. It all ends in an agonizingly harebrained climax at a five-star hotel where much chaos ensues when husband, wife, mistress, her ex-boyfriend, detective and waiter, all show up and run into each other. Its humour derived from such staple David Dhawan clichés as mistaken identities and misunderstandings, Do Knot Disturb is a repellant comedy with irrational plot-points and flaccid punch-lines. The jokes are stale; most of them involve slapstick gags like a corpse getting stuck in a laundry chute, and a possessive ex-boyfriend who goes around punching everyone in sight. Hanging off a wafer-thin premise that barely holds, this film is repetitive and boring, and doesn't even give its actors much scope to push their comic boundaries. The once dependable Govinda is reduced to a mere caricature of his earlier self, his performance now amounting to a variety of facial contortions, and silly dialogues yelled out at the top of his voice. Ritesh Deshmukh and Ranvir Shorey are wasted in thankless roles, and Lara Dutta spends most of the film batting her eyelashes and speaking in a squeaky voice.The film's one major eyesore is the usually elegant Sushmita Sen whose unflattering wardrobe does nothing to hide her sudden weight-gain. As the doubting wife determined to catch her philandering husband, Sushmita ought to have considered sitting on Govinda, and more than likely he'd have confessed his infidelity in the first ten minutes of this film itself, thus sparing us the torture of watching the rest of this drivel.Vulgar, loud and entirely pointless, Do Knot Disturb has virtually nothing to offer anyone with even half a brain. At best, Rajpal Yadav scores a few chuckles with his manic physical comedy. It's hard to believe this film was actually directed by someone. Was David Dhawan ever on the set at all? Perhaps Sushmita Sen ate him! That answers two important questions.
Sherazade Govinda plays a man who is married to a former Miss Universe(played by Sushmita Sen) while he's having an affair another former Miss Universe (Played by Lara Dutta). If you believe this storyline, well I've got a bridge I'd like to sell ya. Ritesh Deshmukh, Rajpal Yadav, Ranvir Shorey and Sohail Khan co-star.This film manages to bring out the worst in everybody's acting. Sushmita Sen was dressed to accommodate her recent weight gain but she looked beautiful as ever and I liked the styling but she was horribly wasted in her role.
sniperswagat Do Knot Disturb sees the return of David Dhawan's favorite story, the infidelity story. This coincides with the return of his favorite actor, Govinda. So, is it worth disturbing the theaters for? Govinda plays a man who cheats on his wealthy wife (Sushmita Sen) with a hot model (Lara Dutta). Unfortunately for him, his wife finds out and sets her childhood friend (Ranvir Shorey) to gather evidence against him. Now, Ranvir has had a crush since childhood on Sushmita, so decides to go the full hog to get any evidence. Govinda decides to put his wife's suspicions to rest, so he hires a waiter (Ritesh Deshmukh) to act as Lara's boyfriend. But Lara also has a real boyfriend (Sohail Khan) who suffers from anger pangs. What follows is the mayhem of Do Knot Disturb.Now, Dhawan is surely a believer in chaos theory. But he needs to understand that there are limits to the amount of chaos someone can fit into a scenario. DKD descends into a farcical situation where the chaos is not funny, it's just chaos. Also, is a slap comedy? Given the situation, yes. Are 2? Suppose so. DKD, unfortunately, has a plethora of slaps. Everyone seems to be slapping everyone, and it's not funny. 50 slaps is not comedy, it's a slap fest. Poor work by the writers. Let's bear in mind here that Dhawan is working with a sub-par script. That makes me feel sympathetic for him to some extent. He tries his best to make this ensemble rise above the script, but fails; hampered by the shoddy work done before him.Govinda tries hard and succeeds to some extent. But playing the man with the roving eye in David Dhawan's movies has been his main role throughout his career. He looks a little overweight in some parts of the movie, though. Riteish Deshmukh does a good job. He stands tall in front of Govinda, and even steals the show from him in some scenes. He is the best performer in the movie.Sushmita Sen should have picked another movie for her comeback. She has a miniscule role with nothing to do. Lara Dutta looks glamorous, but has little else to do. Sohail Khan is good in a small appearance, but could have done better in a meatier role. Ranvir Shorey shouldn't be in this movie. And all the 'John Matthews' jig, only increases the runtime by 20 minutes, while adding nothing, including laughs.The songs are the regular David Dhawan fare, with only Neeraj Shridhar's 'Bebo' being hummable. The sets are good, and look realistic. In fact, they seem the only realistic thing about this movie.Final Verdict: After having ranted so much, you must have guessed my final verdict. Please, give it a miss.
