It is this and a number of other factors that have given this film the status of a cult classic among film audiences in the subcontinent. From the first scene to the last there are so many classic moments that you sometimes think you are watching a long circus performance that only lets you go when you have a silly grin on your face. The movie combines an almost whirlpool combination of gags and comedy scenes that seem to amalgamate the antics of the Marx Brothers, Laurel and Hardy and The Three Stooges. That is not to say that ‘Andaz Apna Apna’ is in the same league as the above mentioned movies, but still it shows that in the first round sometimes people don’t appreciate great films.

But over the years the film has become a favorite of the public. Like ‘Citizen Kane’, ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ and ‘The Shawshank Redemption’ the film did not become a hit upon immediate release. Among the films that can be categorised in the latter group is Rajkumar Santoshi’s 1994 comedy ‘Andaz Apna Apna’.

At the same time there are movie’s that even though they are not super-hits at the time of release, become cult favorites over the passage of time and become bona-fide classics. There are some movies that fail to set the box-office alight when they are released and simply die away over a period of time.
