After a series of bomb blasts in Mumbai, ACP Karan Malhotra announces that he will bring in the culprits responsible within a very short period of time as well attempts to convince his college sweetheart, Tanya P. Nath, to marry him. He then sets about interrogating several suspects so much so that an underworld gangster, Kabir, is compelled to hire an assassin to do away with him. The potential killer, Viju, is an uptight older ex-convict as well as a former gangster, who now runs a pub in Paris, and is willing to kill Karan. As he sets about this gruesome task, he comes across an old flame, Kamini, as well as his estranged wife, Sita - and it is these encounters that may well be the turning point in this life that may convince him to leave the bombs and Bandooks behind and spend the rest of his life praying and watching the Bhakti Channel.

Pretty Good
Absolutely the worst movie.
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
I am a big fan of Big B since 70s and 80s but still I don't like a lot of his films. Buddha Hoga Tera Baap was like a homage to Amitabh who tries to show how sexy he looks, how active he is at 70.Well we already know that Do we need an excuse of a film to showreel Amitabh? The first half is more on Amitabh showreel, his entry scene fails to leave a mark, but yet some scenes are okay, the romantic scenes between Sonu Sood are not too great but the interval does surprise you There are some well handled scenes like Sonu Sood getting shot and then Amitabh seeking revenge, we also have some south style scenes and a scene lifted from Puri Jaganand's Pokiri(2006), even a song from Naseeb plays in one scene between AB and HemaDirection by Puri is okay not too great Music is okay, the title song sung by Big B is okay, Go meera Go is a medley of Amitabh hit songs from 70s with rap by Small B.Amitabh Bachchan walks, talks in swagger, he is superb but he looks too old(of course at 70) he is superb in dramatic/emotional scenes Hema Malini is good in a small role, Sonu Sood resembles old Amitabh and does superb in his role, Charmy Kaur is good, Sonal Sehgal fails to impress, Prakash Raj is as usual rest are all okay.
Bbbuddah Hoga Terra Baap directed by Puri Jagannath is surely a treat for Amitabh Bachchan fans.This is a one big tribute to the great star.Amitabh Bachchan truly is the King of Bollywood.I wish if people stop on spending their money to all those hyped actor's senseless movies and watch what a great actor like Amitabh Bachchan has the caliber to do.I feel that the writers should have concentrated more on Amitabh Bachchan rather than the love story between Sonu Sood and Sonal Chauhan,which is half-baked.Even the love story between Raveen Tandon and Amitabh Bachchan could have been crisp but unfortunately fails.Story:- Viju(Amitabh Bachchan),a hit-man from Paris has come to Mumbai to do is one last job.The direction is good.The story is okayThe dialogs are okay.The music is plain average.The action scenes are nice.Performances Amitabh Bachchan rocks the show.Watch how carries of the action sequences and you would be left spell-bound.Hema Malini is fine.Sonu Sood is subtle.Prakash Raj is terrific.In fact,its great to see Bachchan and Raj together.Sonal Chauhan is waste.Ditto for Charmie Kaur and Raveena Tandon.On the whole Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap should be watched only for Amitabh Bachchan!
Puri Jagannath's 'Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap' is a celebration of Amitabh Bachchan's iconic status, particularly of his angry young man image that was immensely popular in the 80s. As much I disliked most of those movies from the 80s, I thoroughly enjoyed this film from the start. Furthermore, even though it's a tribute to Bachchan and pays homage, none of it is overdone or thrown in your face. It is all done in an entertaining and amusing fashion. The action scenes are over the top and silly but also very funny immediately reminding the viewer of those silly Bachchan films. Shot with style and colour, the film looks 'cool'. Think of this as a remake of an 80s Bachchan flick that is well updated and funny. The humour works very well. The dialogues are hilarious as they parody the 80s masala flicks.Amitabh Bachchan delivers a completely laidback performance. Even though 'Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap' is a celebration of his angry young man image, he appears completely relaxed and delivers a natural performance and reminding the viewer again of his flair for comedy. Sonu Sood is well cast as he very much resembles a young Amitabh and is competent. Even though she has a tiny role, Ravishing Raveena Tandon is superb as the hot sexy mom who is completely nuts about Bachchan's Vijju. She provides some laugh out loud comic relief. Elegant Hema Malini adds grace and class. The two young actresses are passable and Prakash Raj is brilliant as the over-the-top villain.Overall, this isn't a film to be taken seriously. The title already suggests that. It's easily watchable with the family, as a date movie or a rainy day flick with a glass of fresh drinks. The references also give it nostalgic value. Just sit back, relax and let the film start as its maker welcomes you to share this celebration of an actor who has made a solid place for himself in the history of Bollywood.
I intend not to give any spoilers..I was not expecting much when I got in to the movie hall But at the end i was satisfied ,and lot of Telugu appearances in the movie , fights , item songs , and garage scenes where they threaten to kill each other . Its just some fine action by the 60 year old and , borrowed Telugu direction.. the cinematography and screen play were just below the threshold limit and didn't appeal that much But the actors performance is good to watchenjoy with your pop corn or GF :)enjoy the rains or watch this flick
