Hits
  • All the support characters Pappi, Jassi, Payak and Raja do a great job. They are the major plus points of the movie. Jimmy Shergill does aggressive characters very well.
  • The music and the songs are all peppy and melodious.
Comments
  • Maddy is overweight and looks plump. He underplays in the entire movie and the one scene where he bares his heart to Tanu is impressive. He needs to watch his weight but for this role of the decent middle aged London returned Indian, he is perfect.
  • Kangana Ranaut is heavily made up but is cute nevertheless and does her part well, as always. She is perfect for such brat roles
VERDICT
Though the movie is just under 2 hrs duration, it drags to the finish line. Not much going for this movie but, it will appeal to the families as proved by the super hit status of the movie.
