And we thought Priyadarshan would give us a neat comedy. Yes, comedy it is, but a slapstick one, with lot of ‘pun-intended’ dialogues and situations. He certainly knows what sells!
Like his other comedy films, this one is also picked up from an older film — ‘Parda Hai Parda’, a K. Bapaiah film that came 15 years ago. The seed of the plot is from here — a sister comes to the city in search of her brother a
nd his wife — and the rest is Priyadarshan’s own imagination. Hence, the cut-paste job is clearly visible. The first half is the story of four educated unemployed guys played by Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Khemu, Sharman Joshi and Rajpal Yadav. And the second half, the chase for a dhol!
After making several fruitless efforts to earn money, the boys decide to woo and marry a rich girl and become wealthy overnight. Here enters Ritu Tripathi, played by Tanushree. She is here to find the cause of the death of her elder brother, meet his four dear friends and the man whom her brother had decided to get her engaged to. And so, the unemployed foursome poses as his friends.
She becomes friendly with them and even decides to marry one of them, before the whole story takes a turn. The chemistry among the four boys contributes to their perfect comic timing. Go for it if you don’t mind loud, upfront humour. But remember to leave your brains at home please.
