We may not be able to go back to the golden era of the 90s, but the re-release of iconic films has definitely given us a chance to relive those experiences. After Karan, Arjun, Salman Khan, Karisma Kapoor, Tabu, Anil Kapoor and Sushmita Sen starrer Biwi No. 1 is all set to make its grand comeback on the big screen on November 29, 2024. While the announcement has fans buzzing with excitement, let’s take a look at the top 5 reasons that make the comedy-drama an iconic watch.
1. Spontaneous humor
David Dhawan’s Biwi No. 1 is full of entertainment along with lots of laughs. Situational comedy in itself is enough to bring a smile to anyone’s face. As they rightly call it the golden age of Hindi cinema, the film had the perfect blend of comedy, drama and emotions. This is one of the main reasons why it is still a timeless watch.
2. Powerful storytelling
Released in 1999, the film was the pinnacle of Dhawan’s comedy-inspired storytelling. The film was a fresh and bold take on relationships. It explored the themes of love, loyalty, fidelity and family, creating a perfect blend of tradition and modernity that the audience loved.
The film depicts an extramarital affair between Prem (Salman Khan) and Rupali (Sushmita Sen), while he was already married to Pooja (Karisma Kapoor) and its consequences on the protagonist. While keeping the entertainment aspect alive, the film did not put much emphasis on moral policing and left them divided.
3. Live Music Album
Congratulations to veteran musician Anu Malik for creating a timeless music album that still rules the hearts of music lovers. Songs like Jungle Hai Aadhi Raat Hai, Hai Hai Mirchi, Ishq Sona Hai and Chunari Chunari not only have pure vibes but also rule social media through modern mash-ups.
4. OG Trendsetter
Apart from the larger than life personality, Salman Khan’s stylish charm, Sushmita Sen and Karisma Kapoor’s trendsetting outfits redefined fashion in the late 90s and even today, the fashion industry takes inspiration from this era of Bollywood.
5. Soft phase of famous stars
How can it not be a visual delight to see the famous stars of the 90s in their softer era on the big screen? These are films that bring back old memories.
Vashu Bhagnani and Pooja Entertainment’s Biwi No. 1 will be released in theaters on November 29 by PVR Inox Pictures.
