Disco Singh is the story of a struggling singer who was named Lattu prasad in a moment of inspiration by his parents. However, there is nothing inspirational about his life, which basically involves him performing in marriages and parties for his living. Lattu is a failed singer who runs an orchestra named Disco Singh. He dreams of only two things - success and Sweety. Sweety is a beautiful and successful model. Lattu keeps on praying to god to send an angel who can make his dreams come true. And sure enough, God does send someone. Bhupinder Singh aka Paaji is a dreaded don who is not really an angel but Yamraj. He asks Lattu to do a job for him in return of which Lattu will get all the money that he wants. And so begins Lattu’s hilarious journey where he tries to woo Sweety while trying to save his life from Paaji. Things keep on getting more and more complicated for Lattu and how he manages to escape from all these pangas is what forms the rest of the story.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

DISCO SINGH is just another carelessly made film portraying its lead Sikh character as a laughable, silly struggler, who very well knows everything ranging from comedy, singing, dancing and fighting to romancing the girl.Here to add a valid argument, Yes I do accept 'Comedy' as an interesting and potential genre to perform at the box office unarguably. But hasn't Punjabi Cinema gone too far using this one genre repeatedly? Haven't we churned out enough silly comedies one after another without any clear vision vaguely following the other? Or maybe these are not film-makers but just big influential people with bags full of cash who have just entered the market to take their own share of the cake before it gets eaten by the rest.So needless to say, DISCO SINGH remains the latest offering in this overused and avoidable category which simply aims to make you laugh in the theaters cracking deliberate jokes every five minutes by its in- demand Star. And thus earn some quick money in the first weekend itself without caring much for the remaining weekdays.However, moving ahead than its other flaws, the biggest shock for me in the film was the name of talented director Anurag Singh, who had earlier strongly proved his command over the medium; language and regional flavor too through his last 3 highly successful films, including the biggest grosser of Punjabi Cinema till date JATT & JULIET. Unfortunately the director of Jatt & Juliet series is no-where visible in DISCO SINGH unexpectedly and I really missed 'the Anurag & his finesse' I was looking for, the most.Following the recent set pattern of Punjabi films (of copying the flop Hindi comedies), DISCO SINGH is again based on an inspired plot taken from a French Comedy THE VALET (2006), which was earlier copied by Govinda & David Dhawan in their film DO KNOT DISTURB back in 2009 (which didn't work). Having a thin story idea, the film doesn't get any help from the script or dialogues either and they only impress you in few scenes coming after long gaps. Many typical insertions like a hero saving the heroine from goons and 6 songs in the narration make you feel like watching something from the 80s. Plus it was really not anything funny seeing a Punjabi lady decently dressed in a suit running on the tread mill just to generate a silly laugh. Also it was quite strange to promote the film with a Superman promo when it had simply nothing to do with it at all.Musically the songs sound fine while watching the film, but then there are too many and also missing any track which one can remember while coming out of the theater. Talking about technicality, the Cinematography does break some new grounds in Punjabi Cinema brilliantly canning the Delhi locations also chosen for few recent Bollywood films and remains one of the few best features of DISCO SINGH putting it honestly. Besides there is one department in which Punjabi films still have to go a long way and that's the Background Score since only choosing various sounds & tones from the keyboards is not what is called Background Music in films. As far as writing is concerned, the comedy remains loud throughout and works only in few sequences particularly in the first half. The second half becomes too forced in and the climax doesn't take it any higher as normally seen in hit Punjabi comedy movies of the past.Regarding performances Diljit Dosanjh works hard and delivers a fine act. But actually he can easily be compared to the multi-talented Parineeti Chopra of Hindi films as both always come up with great performances using the same mannerisms and therefore are on the verge of being typecast, fast moving towards an annoying repetitive shell. So Diljit soon needs to come out of this 'similar mode' essentially for his own growth proving the actor in him to the audience (in his next ventures which ideally should not be comedies).Playing the female lead Surveen Chawla works more on looking beautiful than giving a fine act. She looks great on the screen but still needs to work on her dance and Punjabi speaking skills for sure. In the supporting roles Manoj Pahwa, Karmjit Anmol, Upasana Singh, Chandan Prabhakar and Apporva Arora fail to rise above the routine. But there is one actor among them all who truly prevents the film from sinking badly, becoming the only saving grace right from his first scene.The veteran actor is B. N. Sharma and I have been a fan of him right from the days of Jaspal Bhatti's Ulta-Pulta & Flop Show in late 80s and early 90s. Sharma is simply synonym to the word 'versatile', reminding me of Anupam Kher who has also brilliantly played the role of a funny gay in the past as Pinku in MAST KALANDAR released in 1991. Posing as a well suited gay gangster, Sharma successfully brings in the much required funny moments in the film often and thus remains the brightest merit of DISCO SINGH along with Diljit and its camera-work undoubtedly.Summing up, I would like to address the viewers watching Punjabi Cinema as it all depends upon we the ticket-buyer audience in the market only that what we wish to see in our Punjabi films in the coming future. Because if a restaurant serves bad, distasteful food at a high price and the visitors keep eating it calmly, without making a scene or complaining at all. Then the chefs in the restaurant's kitchen would go on cooking the same kind of awful food unknowingly and the owner would keep on earning good money out of those badly cooked dishes like an ignorant entrepreneur.

'Disco Singh' is a treat for most Diljit Dosanjh fans in my opinion. Though the film overall isn't anything special, it is Diljit that makes it better than it is. Diljit is probably the main highlight of the film, as he makes you laugh almost every time he opens his mouth in the film.Other actors deliver really good performances, especially Manoj Pahwa as the don, and Karamjit Anmol & B.N. Sharma as his sidekicks. They are hilarious. It has a decent story, but it is quite clichéd and old, something that you have probably heard before many times. The action is alright too.On the whole, if you like Punjabi comedies, or just romantic-comedies in general, you will probably enjoy Disco Singh! It has action, romance, comedy & lots of entertainment!

Disco Singh is a mood maker movie. There are many ways you can relate this movie to jatt and juliet 1 & 2. Diljit Dosanjh played perfectly in his typical style, Surveen Chawla did great in some emotional peaks and song videos in this movie. The movie tend to be a feel good movie; it started with a hero with circumstances that can be related in most ways to its targeted audience then by changes of events these fantasies started coming true, hero and heroines families are eliminated from the movie, don is a care free person, a man took 5+ bullets in his butt and didn't died. Manoj Pahwa and B. N. Sharma has given their best throughout the movie. There are some scenes where you can't help yourself laughing. Again a punjabi movie trending punjabi cinema in wrong direction.
