    Seldom are movies made from a play and this one goes the right way! The movie wasn't quite catchy, but one could imagine the kind of theatrical performances it must have delivered.. The way the movie was done, one felt the characters were alive on a stage and really entertaining.

    The plot of the movie is very good. But the performances are mind blowing! One couldn't have set a better cast, & while the ladies need to do much better, the quartet of Boman, Paresh, Naseer & Om Puri totally mindblowing!

    The backdrop is very classy and stylish. The story is really nice and quite interesting. First 1/2 an hour seems to strethc too long, but after that the movie turns out quite interesting.
    The songs are ok, quite slow, not too catchy. Acting is good overall, except for Katrina, who looks really uncomfortable in many scenes.

    D-

    The returning of Rajesh Khanna, the famous 60’-70’s famous actor, couldn’t have the worst come back ever. This is not family movie, as all this movie shows is lust and sex, there is no story line, and the dialogues are too crammed, instead of sincerity. The songs are worse than the movie. The movie is not at all enjoyable, but extremely boring.
