Plot summary

Ravi Kumar is clearly the black sheep of the Kumar family, and has been so for years. He is unemployed, uncouth, and gets into fist fights and trouble all the time. And then a man is killed, and the evidence points towards Ravi, he gets arrested. Although there were witnesses to this murder, no one comes forward to testify in favor of Ravi. The Kumar family are aware of Ravi's innocence, but watch helplessly as Ravi awaits his sentence, which may send him to the gallows, as now only a miracle can save Ravi. Written by rAjOo

Anil Kapoor becomes a MLA

David Dhawan was known for his comedy films like AANKHEN (1993)

LOAFER was one of his more serious films It was tight, clichéd and filmy

The first half is the usual hero-heroine singing and dancing Though it is different and not like the usual college campus thing that was in the 90s

The second half took the film to a new level where Anil Kapoor becomes a politician His speech with Pramod Moutho was brilliant

Anil Kapoor excels in the role thanks to his tapori role Juhi Chawla is average Gulshan Grover is menacing Mukesh Rishi is OK Kulbacshan Kharbanda is alright Farida Jalal is OK Shakti Kapoor repeats his sidekick act

Compensation for a box office turkey!!

Loafer review :

An unemployed youth (Anil Kapoor) bashes up lackey of a dreaded goon (Mukesh Rishi) and lands up in jail. The bastiwallas persuade him to stand in election against the corrupt politician (Gulshan Grover) patronizing the said goon. The loafer youth wins the election and teaches the villainous brigade a lesson..

Boney Kapoor made this low budget quickie as compensation to distributors who lost heavily on Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993). The film was sold to them at cheap price and they made a decent profit on their investment. Loafer was remake of some South movie and was originally titled Mawaali MLA. It had some cringy comedy scenes like a lusty Kunika falling all over semi clad Anil Kapoor. The Juhi Chawla bathing scene was lifted from Kimi Katkar's bare act in Kala Bazaar (1989). Even that film had Anil Kapoor as the hero.

Regards, Sumeet Nadkarni.

Uneven Bollywood slapstick action

Seriously, who could resist a hero named Loafer!? The DVD almost begs to be played... Anyway, the film starts off really good which some extremely silly, but fun, slapstick of the kind you should really be ashamed you like. It's about a young, hairy good-for-nothing and his cousin (a catch-phrase mumbling idiot in rockabilly-due who gives comedians like Jimmy Il Fenomena a run for their money for the most annoying-but you can't hate them- slapstick act) and their quest for babes, steady jobs and their parents respect. Problem starts when the ruthless mayor and his henchmen starts to terrorize the town for protection money and Loafer is the only one with the shoes to stand up to him... Unfortunely the less humorous second part of the film, where Loafer gets wrongly accused for murder and runs for mayor really drags compared to the energetic first half and you can't help to get a little bored near the end. Also with a really kitschy love story and lots of song and dance numbers, of course.
