The unlikely team of Raj Kumar Santoshi and Ranbir Kapoor serves up a comedy that casts a spell (well, at least for a while). Plus, the latest Madhur Bhandarkar exposé.

   “There’s so much puckishness in the air, even Katrina seems to have inhaled some of the fairy-dust – the marble-model actually springs to life, coming across as some sort of spry comedienne (or at least a game-enough imitation).

   But the second-half syndrome strikes, and she transforms back into sculpture.”

   The most astute comment I have seen recently!

   “Did we really need to follow the stream of urine as Parag relieves himself while in solitary confinement?”

   Now i might not be a big fan of Rangan, but it sure serves up the guilty pleasure quota for me.

   I think Rangan is bang on target this time. a vey fair and insoghtful assessment of the film. Santoshi has done it at last..an intelligent Bollywood caper film..with a lot of physiacl comedy…one of the harest thing to do. Only Manmohan Desai in Hindi and singeetham srinivas rao in Tamil / Hindi ( Pushpak / Michael Madan Kamraja) had mnaged it.

   Err – Rangan is saying it falls flat in the second half. As a caper it is not a patch on Kaminey, but as a comedy it works in parts.

   Rangan has been kind enough to have spared the first half.. I did not find anything remotely funny, not even the one liners.

   I agree with Rangan..The first half indeed was a laugh riot..Second half was quite flat…

   The second half is falkat fora whilke, but soon picks up with the entry of the dons. The den fight is one of the zaniest in recent times. Those zombies jumping out of the vat, electrified, was too funny for words. So was the scene with Smita Jaykar doing her seductive act, stopping her husbnad from entering the bathrooom. Please dont go lookining for too mnay funny oneliners, because this one is nota wordy comedy. PHYSICAL COMEDY is the word. And no ione in Hindi cinema has comne anywhere close to this. Only Singeetam Srnivas rao in Pushpak and Michael Madan Kamraju had got it partly. Even that was not this physical.
