For its entire obsession with ambiance, Game is, at heart, a frustratingly old-fashioned murder mystery. If you’re the kind who follows the genre keenly, by second act, you’ll have figured out the wild card and the culprit. Question is do you want to?

The screen is cluttered with secondary characters that pop in and out without bringing anything to the story other than add to the mess. And that’s what Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji is, a silly jumble of misspent potential and hollow creativity.

Ultimately Lafangey Parindey, like its attention-grabbing title, is unapologetically superficial with a brief attention span. It doesn’t dwell too long on the possible complications or questions that may arise in its protagonist’s lives and conveniently wiggles out of/wraps up any uneasy development.

Guess the makers can’t blame us for reserving similar indifference towards the movie.

If you can discount some of the Veer-Zaara inspired cheesiness to follow along with terrible exercises of humour — namely broken Hinglish exchanges (You Kaala bhainslo, yadda yadda) and gems like, ‘Yeh Indian dil hai. Cello tape se nahi Judta and a reaa-llll-yy long climax, your ‘Dil’ might just find enough strength to mutter ‘Hadippa’.
