| 14 | Munnu and Bunnu (Govinda, Pandey) form a |
| 15 | slapstick comedy duo as the wayward sons of |
| 16 | the jeweller Hasmukh (Khan). They become |
| 17 | entangled in a plot to create via plastic surgery |
| 18 | a double for the Chief Minister (Babbar in a |
| 19 | dual role) in order to arrange the release of the |
| 20 | criminal Natwar Shyam (Grover). The first half |
| 21 | of the film consists solely of the duo’s antics as |
| 22 | they fall for Priya and Ritu (Rageshwari, |
| 23 | Shivpuri). In the second half, Munnu is |
| 24 | abducted by the criminals and loses his |
| 25 | memory, whereupon the film produces two |
| 26 | more character doubles, Hasmukh’s long-lost |
| 27 | twin (Khan again) and his son Gaurishankar |
| 28 | (Govinda again). Gaurishankar is wrongly |
| 29 | kidnapped along with his father and |
| 30 | grandmother (Pathak), and eventually the two |
| 31 | brothers, aided by a wayward policeman, |
| 32 | Pyare (Amrapurkar), get the criminals. The film |
| 33 | continued the enormous 90s success of |
| 34 | lowbrow, rapidly cut action musicals with |
| 35 | strident soundtracks featuring Govinda. |
| 36 | However, the film’s main feature is that it |
| 37 | seems to be in the grip of a compulsion to |
| 38 | repeat, obsessively doubling its characters. |
