Direction: The debutant director Sanamjit Singh Talwar fails to impress through Dishkiyaoon. There are so many glaring loopholes. Cast and their Performance: Harman Baweja's performance as Viki Kartoos is noticeable though it turns out to be weak due to poor storyline. Felt sad to see Sunny Deol as Lakwa. He has been given weird hairdo, accent. What a waste of a talent who has given Sohny Mahiwal, Gadar, Hero – the Spy, Damini etc. to Bollywood. Ayesha Khanna as Meera is alright. Prashant Narayanan as Mota Tony is a relief in the movie, although, he has been given dialogues with double meaning at times. Certain frames where Prashant and Harman are there together is OK. Sumit Nijhawan as Iqbal Khaleefa and Anand Tiwari as Rocky have given good performance. Other Cast viz. Aditya Pancholi, Hasan Zaidi, Harsh Chaaya, Rajit Kapoor are not utilized optimally. Shilpa Shetty looks hot in the item number. Music: Music is average. But what needs to be appreciated is that 18 year old Palash Mucchal has composed four songs in this movie. The song Tu hi Hai Ashiqui sung by Palash Mucchal and Arijit Singh is good. Moments to watch out for: None. Thumbs up: Harmaan Baweja, Prashant Narayanan Thumbs down: Weak story-line.
