    If You Know Hindi, It's the Best Comedy Bollywood Has Ever Produced
    Don't rate this movie if you don't know Hindi well, you won't just get it. Imagine Morgan Freeman getting some subpar dubbing in The Shawshank, how will it sound? It's the same thing here, if not more. Paresh Rawal (Baburao) gave his best and one of the best and famous performances in the history of Bollywood here. But you won't get any of it if you don't know hindi well. I just read some of the English dubbed lines those sound stupid! They can't judge Baburao.

    So my request, if you don't know Hindi well, please don't rate it. This movie wasn't meant for you.
