What critics said
Critics broadly found the film an entertaining, star-powered Bollywood slapstick caper, though some felt its strongest gags deteriorated into excessive and crude comedy.
What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Bobby is presented as Kishen's wife and later Sunny's wife, while the three couples collide in increasingly elaborate misunderstandings.
Kaajal suspects Kishen, Pooja endures Prem's philandering, and Kishen's attempted affair intensifies the film's conflict around trust and double standards.
Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan, Fardeen Khan, Bipasha Basu, Lara Dutta, and Esha Deol drive the film's broad comic energy and verbal-sight-gag rhythm.
Kishen's attempt to conceal Bobby's identity expands into multiple false marital roles and a mass confrontation at Sanjana's wedding.
