rubbish
I don't get how the indian film makers can continue making absolute pile of junk time and time again, and especially comedies. I had stopped watching indian movies or atleast pay to watch them for a good 7-8 years and this is the reason why. I'm sure there are some good movies out there but since the majority of the movies are as over the top as this I'm afraid I might waste alot of time trying to find the good ones.
The cast of the movie was the main reason to watch and I feel sorry for them, putting aside the fact they get paid alot of money for the work involved, they are trying to achieve an image on par with hollywood actors with films like these, and they don't have a chance but they do have a better lifestyle compared to the majority of fellow indians and also people like me.
Don't get me wrong the storyline is different and is understandable being from this kind of background but the way it's been made and it's got enough plots and sub plots to make probably five 90 minute american movies of which one of them is good enough for a decent entertaining movie and you can choose which you prefer from one movie.
Also the constant need for the actors to speak some of the dialogue in english just puts me off. It's supposed to be an indian movie so speak hindi will you?!!!! You can speak english when doing interviews if you want and we know you can speak english and you are well educated. You never see an american or british movie actor trying hard to include an alternative language amongst fellow english speaking characters, or if I'm wrong, to anywhere near the same degree as the indian actors.
Watch if you want but there are serious flaws in this movie, but if you're lucky and are really bored you may not notice them. -
