Perhaps Malamaal Weekly's 101st review would have trashed it like the rest of the hundred.

No doubt, the jokes and gags in the story are truly hilarious at times, but the overall impact of a hearty....Paresh Rawal has been given the best dialogues, followed by Om Puri and Asrani.....Rawal acquits himself with yet another notable performance, but Om Puri goes over the top in certain scenes.....while Sudha Chandran as the authoritarian thakurani of the village and Rajpal Yadav as her pampered brother play their parts well..... ...

Priyadarshan though is not just a great comedy genre filmmaker.
BHAGAMBHAG is all set to bring down the cinema halls on December 22 with the expected Priyadarshan basics: Excellent cast known for humor skills, quirky story, hilarious situational comedy and thrilling fast pace.
