A Good Comedy

It has made a good change to watch some good comedy and its even better to know that, with a few exceptions, the cast does not include much of the Bollywood elite.

Laxmi Narayan's mother begs the Don to allow her son to commit one murder so that he is able to join and after endless begging, one chance is given. In the meantime, in another part of the city, another man, an employee, who is confused on entering his boss's office and instructed to sit, whether he should sit on the left chair or the sofa or on the right, annoys his boss, who then instructs him that he wants him to go and buy a car and that he has already e - mailed the information. Finally, in Delhi, another man is selling lingerie from a vehicle, when his son calls him and instructs him about going to visit their supplier. But then an underworld man is killed, while he tries to save a diamond that has been smuggled and hid in an antique car. Oddly all three men are named Laxmi Narayan.

The movie stars Neetu Chandra, Sunil Shetty, Esha Deol, Tusshar Kapoor, Ashwin Mushran, Sameera Reddy, Vrijesh Hirjee, Paresh Rawal, Manoj Pahwa and Mukesh Tiwari.

While Esha Deol, has to some extent, improved and Sameera Reddy has gone on to add some glamour to this movie. Naturally Paresh Rawal is at his best as usual and Tusshar Kapoor is also good as are all the others and more so with Vrijesh Hirjee and Manoj Pahwa.

One Two Three, directed by Ashwani Dhir of "Office Office" fame, is a good comedy to watch and so far this year it has been the best out of the genre that has been released.
