Does it happen with you?

Whenever this movie comes on TV, I try my best to watch it. I must have watched like 50-60 times (not an exaggeration!). Everytime i watch this movie, I know what's gonna happen next, and start laughing before the joke really happens or the dialogue is spoken.
For e.g. when crime-master GOGO holds salman-amir at gunpoint and they're coming down the stairs .. u know he'll slip and amir will say - "gogoji aapka ghaagra" .. ahaha
there are many other things like this. Does anybody experience this as well??

OF COURSE! I know all the jokes by-heart, and the best part about knowing them in advance is that you can analyse the impeccable timing and comic talent of the actors. (If you're into that film study sort of thing.)

Never thought I'd say this, but even Salman looks like a good actor. Aamir is fabulous as always, and Paresh Rawal quirky as ever.

Examples of impeccable timing.

Paresh Rawal's "hmm. (looks at watch) nimbu paani" and his Teja introduction.

Robert (viju khote) in the poisoned juice scene. "huh? sir aapne bataaya nahi aaj mera birthday hai?"

Aamir Khan's scenes with Deven Varma in the beginning!

Mehmood's acting in the "ban gaya tu star, yaar!" scene.

The hilarious "dandi pe baithiye" scene in which the three people try to adjust on a small bike. :)

I strongly believe this film should be a must in acting courses.

Ya the comic timing is some of the best i've seen. I think this film was a little ahead of its time, seeing how its seems similar to the hera pheri style of comedies that came after the turn of the century. aamir khan has excellent comic timing throughout this film, and even salman khan does very well, especially the part where he wants to reveal his "dil ki baat" to raveena and keeps going to the toilet...hilarious. i think this is one of those films where the comedy grows on you, each time you watch it, u understand some of the jokes better, maybe they're even a little layered! in this respect i prefer this film to hera pheri, but what makes hera pheri re-watchable is paresh rawal's performance.
