For viewers looking for a somewhat traditional Bollywood movie, I would not hesitate to recommend this movie. Viewers do need to keep their expectations in check as there are some aspects that may seem unrealistic. The main plot is also rather dragged out but the various sub plots involving the comedians do add humour and good entertainment value. Sridevi plays the role exceptionally well and it is difficult to see anyone any actress playing this role as well as she does. She naturally adds humour to the character and towards the end acts the role of a desperate wife rather well. Urmila and Anil Kapoor also play their roles well.The movie is a standard 3 hour watch, but time quickly flies by and the soundtrack is rather catchy. Overall this is a must watch!

Judaai is not bad at all for what it is - a typical Hindi movie. I actually saw it back in the day but I just re-watched it, and thought it deserved a good review.The story is quite interesting, albeit a little over the top. The acting from Sridevi and Urmila is very good. The part Sridevi plays is a tough one but she holds up amazingly well. Urmila's role is more generic but her acting is still worth mentioning. Anil Kapoor does OK. There are a good number of side actors, mostly comedians, who do a good job as well. The soundtrack isn't bad overall even though I only really liked two of the songs. Finally, I thought the dialog was very good, almost unexpectedly so.If you enjoy Hindi movies from the 90s this is a shoe in.

This film was Sridevi's last film in 1990s before her temporary retirement and comeback with English Vinglish. During the making of the film, Sridevi married Anil's brother and producer Boney Kapoor who was already married and had 2 children. The film has a weird concept of selling 1 husband which is hard to digest though the characters may seem relatable. Another problem is forced comedy which was prevalent in 80s. The comedy gets to the nerves Another problem is it's melodramatic tone which does get irritating but films were made like that in 90s. Some scenes are well handled like Sridevi's outburst towards the end and Anil's too.Direction by Raj Kanwar is good but writing could be better Music is good though too many songsAnil Kapoor plays his part well which is underwritten though, Sridevi is exceptional in her role making the unbelievable seem believable Urmila is decent, Kader Khan is funny though his comedy track could be avoided, Farida Jalal is as usual, Paresh Rawal annoys, Johny Lever is funny rest are okay

Judaai a serious family drama with romance and comedy. In short cut, this movie is about a Girl who loves a married man with kids so much, she makes the wife an offer. The offer is that she becomes the second wife, they live happily and the first wife gets 2 crore (Million). The offer gets accepted after a few incidents. What follows is a little serious scenes and a few comedy scenes. Anil Kapoor gives a great performance, but his character is so stingy. He works as an engineer with decent wages, but doesn't buy basic household things including a Television. This is not realistic, this kind of character must be a bore. But, the director has managed to make him look like a Great fellow, no one but me is complaining (and his first wife). Sridevi (Anil's real life sister in law) plays his first wife who adores money and reputation. Sridevi is one of my old time favourites and delivers a Brilliant performance. She should of received Best actress rather then the pathetic Karishma Kapoor in Raja Hindustani that year, famous for bribing awards. Urmila is a talented actress in a good performance. We have Three Great comedians in Superb roles including Kader Khan, Paresh Rawail and Johnny Lever. This is worth the watch.
