Bioscope – V [ Comedy - I ]




It is sad story that none of recent movies could grace the list. I cannot list some sense less movies made in the name of comedy mainly by David Dhawan and Rohit Shetty. I am a big fan of Priyadarshan. However, ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro’ would have been topped the list if I haven’t listed it in the offbeat section. Because, for me the film was one of the best comedy ever made.
