Mumbai-based Sunil Arora is in Marketing, while his wife of 10 years, Malti, is in Sales Division. Both have a son, Avi, who studies in Arya Vidya Mandir. When their U.S-based friends, Shefali and Harsh, come to visit, Sunil finds out the secret behind Harsh's attitude - which is spouse-swapping. He attempts to convince Malti to do the same - in vain initially - but succeeds rather dramatically after a few days. He goes through a number of classified advertisements and subsequently meets a couple, Kalpana and Vinod Khanna. He then convinces his wife to accompany him to their residence - with hopes that this joint meeting will not only spice up but also change their lives forever. Written by rAjOo (gunwanti@hotmail.com)
I went into this movie expecting S*&# and came out thanking my desperation for making me me watch this movie.It really made a what would have been just another afternoon at home a great day at the movies.
The characters are people everyone in the age 25 to 40 can identify with. Everyone of those are someone you can identify in your office or within your own friends.
What i was most impressed with was the language with was exactly like how we as urban Indian from Bombay talk. The only good and bad thing depending on the way you look at it is the lack of abusive or supposedly cheap language that all guys who sit together in the office would use.
The movie is great fun and although you kind off know what is going to happen in the end you still enjoy the ride.
Some of the scenes are hilarious and the acting is top notch.
The scenes where the characters are nervous actually made me nervous when i even thought of putting myself in their shoes ( i am not married though any girl interested).
Also particularly good was the end which left you thinking about what must have happened and I'm sure everyone will have a opinion as to what really happened.
A great movie and a must watch for everyone who is urban Indian especially.
