Awara Paagal Deewana is way different from Vikram Bhatt's trademark romantic thrillers and it worked for me because I love mindless comedies with catchy one-liners delivered to perfection . And when you've a forgetful Paresh Rawal and a stammering Johnny... Full review

APD starts off as a 'Been there, Seen that' yawn of a movie. In true Bollywood style, it rehashes Action from 'The Matrix' and a plot more than loosely based on 'The Whole Nine Yards'. Akshay Kumar, who is slowly... Full review

The movie is very bad. Just don't waste your money and time on it. The jokes are bad, acting is bad, everything seems to be a play set up by school kids. Too bad that creators of Hera Pheri have... Full review

A movie that is truly a blemish on Bollywood. I saw it on the next day I saw "Gulaam" on TV. I kept wondering as to what prompted Vikram Bhatt to make a movie that made no sense at all.... Full review

This movie tries to set a mark on the Indian film industry by over-doing action scenes. But unfortunately it fails. The story straightly ripped off from The Whole Nine Yards and the action stolen from The Matrix. The only thing... Full review

Produced by Firoz Nadiadwala, the film -- Awara Paagal Deewana -- worked very well.
Luckily for them, Deewane Hue Paagal is as good as the film before it.

Rediff India
His latest offering, Awara Paagal Deewana , has all it takes to make a successful Hindi potboiler.
Anu Maliik's music is a disaster.
Supriya Pilgaonkar is not impressive.
Sunil Shetty is painful.

Apun ka Choice
The highlight of "Awara Paagal Deewana" is the gritty action sequences that have been shot using the latest technology from Hollywood.....gloss to the story.....In the latter half of the movie, comic attempts by talented Paresh Rawal (who plays a henpecked husband) and Johny Lever (who plays the over-confident sidekick of Sunil Shetty) are quite hilarious.....Besides a good use of special effects has been made to lend a touch of reality to many action scenes..... ...
