6/10
Looks like Akshay is finally came to his senses..!!
25 November 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Akshay Kumar(Akki)'s comic timing and Daddy David Dhavan's experience in Comedy movies works together to bring a decent entertainer. Of course there are dull moments especially emotional ones and some senseless situations, story-line is decent and weak in some parts, but the funny parts hide most of these to make this a good entertainer..!! Debutant director Rohit Dhawan son of David Dhavan's this Comedy-Emotional-Romance with of course Indian Masala Story which is definitely tolerable and nice Time-pass. Akki's talent was hidden in few intolerable movies from 2-3 years, but this time he succeeds to lit fire on screen and he comes back. Rohit Dhavan's mind, Akki's talent, Akki-john chemistry, Two hot 'tottaas' and witty dialogues by Renuka Kanzru are highlight of the movie, Still, Magic of Akki worked above all, after a longtime. Movie will start with an introduction to recession when childhood friends Jignesh "Jerry" Patel (Akshay Kumar) and Nikhil "Nick" Mathur (John) will be living together and enjoying life. Nick is an Investment banker and Jerry works as security guy in a mall. Nick is in love with Radhika Awasthi (Deepika Padukone) and they decide to marry and she will be planning for her exotic marriage and expensive honeymoon, and now recession hits London and boys lose their jobs. After losing jobs we get to know that Jerry had sister who died with her husband in a accident (AS USUAL..!!) leaving a boy to look after, Veer (Shraman Jain)..!! Now all responsibilities makes boys to work as Male escorts in most popular strip-club in town, "Desi Boyz"..!! Where they get successful as hottest Strip Boys as 'Rocco & Hunter' in London, but when Radhika finds out, she calls off the marriage as well as love also this job makes Jerry to lose Veer (Nephew)'s Custody. Boys quit the job and since Jerry is the reason for Nick to join in "Desi Boyz", it brings a fight which departs boys . Now without any money, bankrupt boys will get serious about career and relationship. Nick will fighting for love outside Radhika's house by pleading forgiveness and her father Suresh Awasthi (Anupam Kher) will be helping Nick in this, where Jerry will rejoin College to complete his graduation and get a reputed job so that he regains the custody of Veer. In college he meet his old classmate Chitrangada who is economic teacher for him..!! Will boys succeed in what they started now..?? Will boys get together as before..?? Movie is fun and maintained with required emotions and sentiments since its an Indian movie, here it succeeds and it really brought a good and very simple story-line as a good time-pass. Screenplay-direction-Story by Rohit Dhavan tells us there is a bright future for David Dhavan's son. Akki is back on track with right choice of role, John as usual, no expression-only body-abs exposure (Which is really great though..!!), but there was a good chemistry between John and Akki. Deepika and Chitrangada were filled with performance and hotness and succeeds to impress. Anupam Kher and Omi Vaidya were excellent, and Sanjay Dutt's cameo was a treat. Music by Pritham was just okay with few foot tapping numbers. Cinematography by Natarajan Subramaniam covering exotic places in London is a treat to eyes. Movie is of course "A" rated with 2 Hot Strip boys and many adult jokes like 'Qualifications chodo, apni measurements toh bolo", while Akki filling out the application form for "Desi Boyz" he writes his shoe size in the column size and many more. Anupam Kher and John getting high with Grass and telling themselves to 'Keep off the grass' includes in the list. Its just one time watchable, but still Watch it for Akki and for fun with your bunch of friends, and you have to expect a dramatic climax scene which i really do hate but this was funny but of course senseless and i wish it wasn't there. Girls will love to see 'Rocco' and 'Hunter' shirtless and Nick in Yamaha Vmax, and boys will be seeing only Deepika and Chitrangada when they are on screen.
