Priyadarshan once a maker who used to make us laugh with his comedies now is at sea with comedies. After debacle of TEZZ which was an action film he returns with comedy with his favourite actors and a title which looks straight out of Malamaal Weekly(2006) which was a surprise hit of 2006. This film pales in comparison, It looks like a film which has hardly anything new. The main story of Shreyas who keeps getting beaten to pulp is okay but hardly engaging. Nana's character could be interesting but apart of few scenes his character too fails to engage. There is some thrill element in between at the interval which is damn predictable. The director tries to cram in every masala he used earlier, we have brothers straight out of ANARI and his own DOLI SAJAKE RAKHNA who only know to beat the hero. We have the nalayaak beta straight out of Priyan's Khatta Meetha(2010). There is hardly anything exciting about the film, there are no resolutions, there are just typical filmy situations and the film seems never ending.
Direction by Priyadarshan is below average Music is forgettable
Shreyas Talpade who started off in dramatic roles with Iqbal and Dor sadly got carried away with comedies and he is getting typecast He does well in his role but the spark is missing. Nana Patekar whom I thought will steal the show sadly gets nothing worth to chew. His character keeps eating a lot and digging the ground, Also his being the same age as Paresh and Om Puri it's difficult to digest that he is Om Puri's Son. He does his part well though Paresh Rawal and Om Puri are adequate Neeraj Vohra does well as the coffin seller Madhurima's role is limited to love interest and she is fair Sona Nair with a dubbed voice is nothing great Asrani is as usual as the Priest, shouting his lungs out Shakti Kapoor and Razzak Khan too just fill the backdrop The 3 brothers of the heroine are alright
Strangely on the same day O My God released which got better reviews and saw the actors Paresh and Om in better form. Another quibbie with the film is the mockery of the Christian religion which is in bad taste
