Dhoondte Reh Jaaoge (2009)

Crappy film

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This movie had me in stitches, just like the film within this film, you'll find yourself laughing for all the wrong reasons and at all the wrong scenes that aren't even meant to be funny.Kunal Khemu (or as I like to call him...'Cutie-pie') plays an up and coming accountant who gets dragged into the world of movie-making when one day while out celebrating the birthday of his girlfriend (played by Soha Ali-Khan) he is conned by a movie-producer (played by Paresh Rawal). Exhausted from butting heads with Raj Chopra (Rawal's character) he devises a plan with the help of Chopra to pull a Ponzie scheme on a bunch of fellow movie producers to invest in an epic film project they plan to sabotage for their selfish purposes.Top notch performances by Paresh Rawal, Kunal Khemu, Sonu Sood & Soha Ali-Khan, although I could have done without seeing Soha Ali-Khan dressed up as Jodhaa from 'Jodhaa Akbar' (just one of the many films spoofed within the film).

Dhoonte Reh Jaoge for logic in the plot of this film, akin to the attempt of super-flop film Kunal & Paresh are making. For starters, what was the logic behind the actors signing the dotted line. Beats me!!!Kunal Khemu seems to be a good actor who at least is serious about giving his 100%. However, the accountant with locks of hair is not good characterisation.Soha Ali Khan is hopeless. The only time her performance was average was in RDB. Safe to say, another spoilt star-child.Paresh Rawal is passable. Watching Sonu Sood requires pain-killer. Johnny Lever finally gets some work after his self-imposed exile owing to the sudden emergence of the stalwarts on the TV comedy shows. Nevertheless, his idea of comedy is well past sell by date.Hrishita Bhatt & Deepal Shaw were hardly there.An attempt to make a spoof of movie is novel idea (it works in Hollywood) and if some serious writing was done, I am sure this movie would have worked wonders.

Now I will not say that it is some best comedy movie coming out from Indian cinema, but certainly this movie came out as a surprise at least for me.I was watching this movie hoping that my next 2-3 hours are going to be wasted badly, but opposite to that this movie made me laugh.The script is well written and the movie has a natural flow.I will suggest anyone this movie who want to laugh... remember laughing is a great exercise.Keep laughing.I gave it 10/10 to improve its rating mainly, but truly it deserve a 6 or may be 7.

Film is a cocktail of Hollywood's Bowfinger and The Producers (What Bollywood film ain't??). It spoofs Lagaan, Gadar and Sholay while its own story follows Rangeela's path towards the end. To be honest there are some funny sequences and if you just drop your guard a bit then this film turns out to be very entertaining. Cast does OK but the biggest drawback is the number of songs particularly one where there is ample skin show for no reason. Soha Ali is the other weak link just like she was in Mumbai meri jan. Among others, Johnny Lever almost steals the show with his Pervez Musharaff (Ashraf) act. I say almost as the makers never really explored his character in detail. All in all, if you go with the flow you will be just fine.
