Desi Kattey is an insipid mishmash of just about every script engaging two friends going separate ways meets underdog sports hero.

Daawat-E-Ishq is like an exuberant menu of a newly opened restaurant that’s eager to please with its spread of scrumptious offerings that balances crowd-favourites with substance.
