Where are the laughs ?

Comedy.....oh comedy, where have you gone ?
I miss the days when our family used to go for the saturday evening show of a Govinda starer. That was the period when everyone left their brains at home and filled the theatres to get thoroughly entertained watching the comic brilliance of Govinda. The combination of Govinda and David Dhavan meant a roller coaster ride from the first frame to the last. All the movies from this jodi were super hits.
I miss those days....I miss those movies. Be it Coolie No.1, Saajan Chale Sasural, Aakhen, Hero No.1......the list can just go on and on. There were other hilarious movies which I would do tremendous injustice to if I were not to mention them on this topic. Masterpieces like Andaz Apna Apna and Hera Pheri will forever be remembered. Each and every character has left an indelible mark on the minds and hearts of the viewers.
There are movies of different genres being exhibited these days which is wonderful but among all this the one type of movies that aren't quite up to the mark are comedies.
