SPOILER ALERT
'Chalo Isq Ladaaye' is the story of a famous actress Rani and her number one fan Govinda. The two meet each other by chance when Rani in a drunken stupor runs Govinda down with her car. In her drunken state she agrees to killing Govinda's terrorising grandmother if Govinda kills her cheating fiance à la 'Throw Momma from the Train'. Not remembering anything of this she is stunned when her number one fan calls her telling her he has done the deed and now it is her turn. Faced with no other options she and her secretary set off on their mission. Somewhere along the line Rani and Govinda develop feelings for eachother à la Notting Hill.
The story is quite funny. And shows that remakes aren't necessarily awful. The actors are very entertaining. Johnny Lever is an idiot as usual and Rani is adorable as usual. And Govinda's dadi is just priceless. She almost makes the principle in 'Mathilda' pale in comparison. The songs are also quite fun. All in all not a bad way to spend 2 1/4 hours.
***/5 stars
