Had a chance to revisit this classic!
For the uninitiated, here's the plot of the film - (TRUE STORY, btw!) In an accident two days before his wedding, a young man forgets the last year of his life. His friends are determined to ensure that he gets married despite his condition.
This is one of those rare films that delivers overall entertainment (A race against the time thrillers + a Comedy; a rare mix) like some of major films with your Ajiths, Vijays, Rajinis, SRKs, Hrithiks haven't done in recent times (yeah I said it!) You can tell this was made on a shoestring budget and went on to be a major success, so if putting hardly any money in and making a lot of it isn't BO success, I don't know what is. Props to the writers and the sound design folks. The actors really sell it too.
And, owing to this success, the film was remade in six languages as Pusthakamlo Konni Pageelu Missing (Telugu), Kwatle Satisha (Kannada), Medulla Oblangata (Malayalam), Suna Pila Tike Screw Dhila (Odia), Shu Thayu? (Gujarati) and Dokyala Shot (Marathi). So if you haven't heard of this story, you have several options and almost no excuses if you're looking to watch something very different.
Should be on everybody's must watch list!
