Ladies and Gentlemen, tell you this; threesomes are back in fashion and how?? Well, the least we can do is wait for the weekend to see Sajid comic-king with the new mix. This isn’t the first time the tried and tested formula of duel or triple role being played by actors on screen. From stars to so called “Actors”, everyone has tried to play around with any film they could get their hands on. If you don’t agree then just wait till the film “Humshakals” releases on 20th this month.
From the record holder Mr. Big B, who has done like a dozen films portraying double roles like in Don, The Great Gambler and Sooryavansham with the list going on.
He topped the cake frosting with a cherry by beating himself by doing a triple role in “Mahaan”.
The list can’t go on without remembering a legend and versatile actor Sanjeev Kumar playing 9 roles in a film “Naya Din Nai Raat”.
From the legendary first superstar, Dev Anand’s “Hum Dono”, Dilip Kumar’s “Ram Aur Shyam”, Dharmendra’s “Gazab” to jumping to almost today’s generation Salman Khan’s “Judwaa” , everyone has tried their hands on dual roles.
No one can forget the films which have made a place in our hearts with both comic timing and acting skills. Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma in “Angoor” set the standard for the times to come.
Along with Paresh Rawal in “Andaz Apna Apna”, have made it to the cult list of evergreen classics of Bollywood.
The trend took a sideline in the decade between but only to come with a new Tadka for the youth. Once back on the menu the industry took the formula with much aplomb and the young generation gave it a go to flaunt their skills to the audiences. While on one hand films like Kaminey couldn’t make it on the other hand audiences gave their love to the likes of Rowdy Rathore, Aurangzeb and the last dual film in the club; Dhoom:3.
So, with actors like Saif Ali Khan, Riteish Deshmukh and Ram Kapoor who individually have pulled off a lot of stuff with both comic timing and otherwise are gonna give us something which will not let you sit in the theatre. So I bet you would come out saying, “LMAO”.
