The madcap craziness of Yamla Pagla Deewana (2011) saw the three Deols (Dharmendra, Sunny, and Bobby) come together to create some very Punjabi comedy. The third installment in the franchise, Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se, directed by Navaniat Singh, seeks to repeat that every effort. The teaser for the film captures the very Punjabi quirks of the three he-men, with the addition of one more, actor-producer Salman Khan
A few months back, the third part of Dharmendra, Bobby Deol, and Sunny Deol starrer Yamla Pagla Deewana was announced.
The film had been titled as Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se.
If sources are to be believed, then we got to hear that, Salman Khan who is currently busy shooting for Race 3 will be doing a special song in Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se.
According to sources:
“Salman Khan had committed that he would do a special song for the Deols a while back. Now that he is in the city, the actor wanted to complete the shooting for the number before he heads for the next schedule of Race 3 in Abu Dhabi.”
Wow! Wouldn’t that be amazing?
Narrated by Salman Khan himself, the teaser begins with the sight of Dharmendra playing the flirtatious playboy for whom age is just a number. While Sunny plays the good-hearted ayurvedic doctor with the 2.5 kilo arms, Bobby plays the young romeo who hates his name. One snippet has him reprise Dharmendra’s famous scene from Sholay (1975), complainig about his name, Kaala. Whether it has a reference to the recent Rajinikanth film is not clear.
While the first film from the franchise was set in Punjab, the third one seems to touch upon the Gujarati element, with a hilarious snippet of the three red-blooded Punjabis trying to speak Gujarati.
The teaser does make the usual stereotypical statements of a Punjabi character (strong, good-hearted, flirtatious and booze loving), which seem a little dated, but the genial nature of the trio makes it seem a little interesting.
But the big Easter egg in the film is Salman Khan ‘s appearance. The actor makes a surprise entry towards the end of the teaser, introducing himself as ‘Mastana’ to join the Yamla Pagla Deewana gang.
Yamla Pagla Deewana that was released in 2011 and Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 that released in 2013 was a massive hit.
Well, let’s hope that the third franchise impresses us this time as well.
