Everything seems in place for this flick on paper. Take a look at it , you've got the 'Hera Pheri' core together after ages. Though the title has nothing to do with Priyan's superhit flick , Akshay Kumar-Suniel Shetty Paresh Rawal feature in this one. All the more , Priyan's favorites - Manoj Joshi , Rajpal Yadav too get their share.
If 'Hera Pheri' brought about then ; a rather not so popular 'Tabu', this one promises bolllywood's crème ââ¬âKatrina Kaif already riding high after her previous.
What's even better is the fact that Akshay too is no less than any Khan today.
Synopsis: Nothing but a money heist with a mix of characters ââ¬âPriyan style
So what's gone wrong with this one??
Aaaaaah.. ell almost everything!
To start off with Priyan offers us nothing new- the same old confusion and the running around for the money, mixed portions here and there of various other flicks youââ¬â¢ve seen of his.
The Kidnapping , the characters running around , mistaken identities galore but the basic plot is just too loose. The dialogues are terrible and barely evoke laughter. All you hear is just a few characters yelling at each other with the typical hindi film style of 'Tu tu main main'
Whatââ¬â¢s more annoying are the songs. Firstly , neither are worth humming and Pritam strikes a complete low with this one and to carry things forward these tracks just emerge about anytime in the film completely killing the pace. The song ââ¬Ëpaisa paisaââ¬â¢ could have been totally done away with as it just emerges at such a crux in the plot.
The screenplay is highly flawed. The first half is something you can totally sleep over as scenes donââ¬â¢t connect well enough and you notice sudden jumps from one to another. The introductions of characters are absolutely lame and such a downer for a Priyan flick.
On the acting front , many would rush to the theatres expecting a lot from Akshay Kumar considering his pairing with Priyan has always been entertaining. This one here is a big letdown. Akshay needs to reinvent his comic sense and style. He just overdoes it in this one with those weird expressions and poor dialogue delivery. What makes it even worse is when he seems to be getting better in the 2nd half, the script locks him up in a cupboard and for over 20 min thereââ¬â¢s no sign of him in the film.
Paresh Rawal is another who needs to seriously reinvent his style and selection of movies. Though a Priyan favourite, heââ¬â¢s just a mere cut paste of his other flicks. He doesnââ¬â¢t make you laugh at all and is always found yelling.
Sunil Shetty is the worst of the lot . Right from struggling with the dialogue delivery to lip syncing in a song, heââ¬â¢s just tagging along.
Katrina Kaif just smiles her way out and smiles, no scope at all.
Sameera Reddy , like most of her films you wonder what sheââ¬â¢s doing besides wearing some skimpy outfits.
The surprise here is Neha Dhupia who appears in a very shady song but impresses in bits and pieces with her acting skills.
Aditi Govitrikar not bad..
Shakti kapoor , Tinu Anand., Chunkey Pandey ...wasted
The real showstoppers for those giggles are in order of priority ââ¬â Johnny Lever ( he cracks you up big time), Rajpal Yadav ( in a few scenes that he has) and Asrani( in bits).
Out and out , with a very poor 1st half and an abrupt end to the flick , wonder if itââ¬â¢s going to woo the masses. If you do watch this flick, do enjoy the promo of the much awaited 'Veer'.
