It’s one thing to caricaturize for humour, and another thing to completely misrepresent something. One also wishes the humour wasn’t accompanied by the insufferable background core and sound effects.
However, if you can look beyond these flaws, the film is worth your time for the unique story, performances and some genuine laughs.

This is yet another B-grade Bollywood film made with the intention of exploiting Sunny Leone’s image. Except for the sexuality, her character does not seem to have any other characteristics.

In the end, however, you will love this nutty comedy for its characters that are nuttier still. Much like all of us and the people we love. “Death and shit can come anywhere,” says a character. That’s quite a philosophy! Watch it, and then watch again. This one’s a winner!

This is a low-brow, gimmicky film that capitalizes on one of Hindi film’s most iconic villains, and more unforgivably, on the aam junta’s frustrations with the system.

Debut director Anil Kumar Chaudhary whips up a film that makes a few quick points with a one-dimensional and simplistic narrative. The film does have a few moments like the mother’s unconventional ways of cheering up her upset daughter and the uneasy equations between successful and struggling friends. However one wishes the rest of the film was as heartfelt as them. In the end, you are left with the thought that the film could have been so much more.

Director Ranjit Kapoor happens to be the co-writer of the classic comedy Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron and the director of the charming Chintu Ji (2009). One wonders what happened here. Sadly the filmmaker is not on firm ground here, giving us a film telling us what we already know, with a story we’ve seen too many times already.

A dash of reality would have given Laila’s journey that much more gravitas and credibility. And the film does go a bit off-focus in the second half.

But one still recommends the film wholeheartedly! How often in Bollywood do you see a differently-abled bisexual heroine, one who gets to have her own share of flaws, her romantic adventures, and her journey towards self-actualization? This margarita is intoxicating stuff, even if with a straw!

This is a delicious slice-of-life film that puts forth various issues, and celebrates the unintended and often dark humour that we see all around us. As the lights dim on a closed courtroom, we understand the director is making a symbolic point. Indians often say that one should keep away from the ‘chakkar’ of courts and hospitals as far as possible. The film shows us why. And it’s sad, sad indeed.

But the central flaw with the film is Mr. X himself who never piques our interest and is as hollow inside as he is on the outside. Steer clear.

…a half-entertaining story that unfolds between songs, some past life mumbo-jumbo, sprinkles of Rajasthan exotica, and a good-looking cast that makes it somewhat bearable. And why half-entertaining? Because it’s so ludicrous, it’s almost fun!
