Haseena Maan Jaayegi (Hindi: हसीना मान जायेगी) is a 1999 Indian Bollywood comedy film, starring Govinda, Sanjay Dutt, Karisma Kapoor, Pooja Batra, Anupam Kher, Kader Khan, Aruna Irani and Paresh Rawal and directed by David Dhawan. The film was inspired by the movie Pyar Kiye Ja and went on to become the fifth highest grossing Hindi film of 1999. It is often regarded as being amongst Govinda's greatest performances and he won many awards for his role. Part of the story is taken from the 1964 Tamil classic movie Kadhalikka Neramillai which had been remade as Preminchi Choodu, Pyar Kiye Jaa and Preethi Madu Thamashe Nodu.
Amirchand (Kader Khan) is the ill-fated father of two mischievous sons - Sonu (Sanjay Dutt) and Monu (Govinda). Both of them are always up to one prank or the other, most of them aimed at stealing money from Amirchand.
In the opening scene, they call up their father, acting as gangsters, and ask for a huge sum if he wants to live. The plan fails as Amirchand turns out to be the driver of the taxi in which they were escaping. Later, they fix up the marriage of their father with Shakuntala (Bindu) and take one lakh rupees as advance dowry from her brother Jamnadas (Asrani). This plan also fails as Amirchand refuses to entertain Jamnadas and his sister.
