Quotes:
[first lines]Gautam: The premier of your first film is always special, but not if Diwali is on the same day. People are generally busy with celebrations at home. It is unlikely that all the invitees will turn up - especially if it's an off-beat film.

It's a very engaging film thanks to a controlled screenplay and fine performances by everyone. As expected, Amitabh Bachchan is fantastic! Watch him go through a multitude of scenarios while not once losing the primary characteristics of his personality. He's perfectly cast.
But that's hardly all. Preity Zinta and Arjun Rampal do very well, too. And Divya Dutta and especially Shefali Shah are fantastic. It's complemented by an effective background score that is sure to surprise those who are familiar with Hindi film music.
Watch it for the dialogue and its thunderous delivery by everyone, and you shall not be disappointed.
