Trivia:
The film is based on Shakespeare's popular comic drama 'The Comedy of Errors'. Later 'David Dhavan' also remade 'The Comedy of Errors' as Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (1998) with Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda in dual roles - without giving Shakespeare any credit. moreFAQ

This film is fantastic! An Indianised "comedy of errors", it nicely highlights the similarities between Indian humour and that of Shakespeare. The comic potential of "twin twins" may seem to have been fully exploited,but this film transported the idea to India superbly well. The scene with the bhang was a gem. I am not sure why this film receives so little praise, or even acknowledgement, but if you are looking for a first-class Indian comic film, it is very hard to go past "Angoor". Considering the drek that passes for comedy in Hindi film today, thanks to David Dhawan and others like him, Angoor may be hard to find, but it's worth the effort, and I now want to find more films featuring this talented cast.
