This is the best David Dhawan film. There are various reason but the best of course is the speed of the film. It just starts and ends. No breaks, no jerks, nothing. A total roller-coaster. A bank robbery, to Desh-Bhakti, to cheap pelvic motions, to high class editing, to great acting, to interesting twists and turns filled with loud laughters. It has everything. For those who came in late 'Ankhein' is still in the top 10 biggest grocers Indian film Indutry ever made.
Although every one has performed really well including Chunky Pandey but this is a David Dhawan film. I saw 'Shola or Shabnam' and liked it but 'Ankhein' established David Dhawan as a director with peculiar sense of humor for me. Which again became evident in another fantastic film 'Coolie no 1'. Scene where villager Govinda meets urban Kader Khan is a class of its own. The way Kader Khan says "Handiya Main Kya Pak Raha Tha Gadhey?". Its damn funny.
Repeat value of the film is not very high because its very long but I watched many scenes fast forwarding here and there for a long time. my favorite scene is 'Kaun Dega Qurbani' and college principal scene. Govinda is unbeatable and undoubtedly better than Bachchan in some ways. 9/10.
