Sanjay Dutt is the BEST !!!!

Warning: Spoilers
Rohit Shetty returns with the usual slapstick fare of comedy. Once again he has come out with another mindless offering of humour. It seems that he has made Goa the base for his movies. I don't think that Rohit deserves a high rating for being a comedy movie director. As I don't feel he understands the elements of comedy. He is truly not a master in this genre but he knows how to handle a camera. David Dhawan was more skilled with these type of movies. As again this movie is in the same vein as the 'golmaal' movie's. It is totally devoid of any situational comedy or humorous dialogues. Instead the movie completely relies on pathetic and childish behaviour from all that act in the movie. The overall atmosphere in the movie reminded me a lot of the movie 'No Entry', as the theme of identity confusion was very evident in both.

The plot revolves more around Fardeen Khan as his brother thinks that he is married to Mugda Godse. But the truth is somewhat else. Both Fardeen and Ajay are notified by Sanjay Dutt that he will be staying over at his place due to a 4 hour plane delay. At that moment Mugda is away so Fardeen assumes that Ajay told him that Bipasha Basu is to stand in as the wife. When initially the housemaid was chosen by Ajay. From here onwards every attempt is made to sustain Sanjay's believe that Bipasha is Fardeen's wife

The movie progresses with one plot track however this does not develop to a large substance. Many other characters enter in and out in the movie but their involvement is so restrained that one does find their presence to have any importance. The smaller characters do feel to deter our concentration away from the main stars. At times this does tend to side track the movie in a frustrating manner. As the movie is based on a play one wished that the running time of the movie was restricted to 2 hours. There was no need to go beyond that duration. The movie's pace does vary from time to time but the presence of Sanjay Dutt sustains ones attention. He is undoubtedly the centre of attention in the movie. His comic timing and charisma is very hilarious. It is due to him that one is encouraged to watch on. After giving a good performance in one of the best comedy of the year 'Life Partner', Fardeen khan disappoints despite being a integral part in the movie. However he gives good support to Ajay Devgan. Ajay on the other hand irritates. Mugda Godse leaves no impression in a very small role. There was potential to involve her however she was ignored. This was disappointing despite she gave an impressive debut in 'Fashion'. She has talent and did the best she could in the few scenes she had. Bipasha Basu looked very glamorous. Since 2007 she has toned her body very well. She exhibits her assets to a high extreme. Her acting ability has matured after so much time.

The scenery and locales of Goa add a certain tropical appealing atmosphere to the movie. It is a change from seeing Mumbai.

If you are in to brainless fun, this one is for you.
