User Reviews

Horrible

The much anticipated movie turned out to be the real disappointment. I do not understand what these people are trying to project from such movies ? I went with an anticipation of light comedy without using brain but since the movie made my brain go numb, I took a nap in between. Too many loose strings and plots and sub-plots and sub-plots without any relevance among themselves lead to ultimate confusion and in between I was searching for some laughing material which never came till the end.

All the talented actors have been wasted under poor direction from Sajid Khan. No continuity, no screenplay and even the songs suck.

Do not waste the money, even if you have plenty ! Because your brain damage will be more expensive affair.
