There is a baddie who is an outrageous show off. He reminds the camera and his sidekicks once every minute that he is invincible. But, this character, played by Askshay Kumar (AK), seems within the realm of reality. AK's acting has been the pillar in this fast paced farcical comedy. He is the heart and soul of this movie.
The story is that he wants to loot treasure which is being transported by special train under guard. AK impersonates as a film Director, enrols an entire village in his "movie" and pulls off the heist.
The narration makes the appropriate leaps and reaches a climax without seeming to meander at any point. There is no dull moment. Even so, the Director finds the opportunity to squeeze in the famous item number "Shiela ki jawani". The jungle chase in the night also weaves into the story. This is masala movie created by pros.
Katrina Kaif has danced with gusto to the "Sheila" number. Akshay Khanna has portrayed the right mix of a Bollywood star desperate to win an Oscar, which promise is part of AK's caper.
The movie could have done vastly better at the box office with a few more hit numbers, including the one where Salman Khan makes a guest appearance.
This is a well crafted Bollywood masala entertainment, and not to be missed.
