Starring: Jimmy Shergill,
Rajpal Yadav, Nisha Rawal, Monishka Gupta, Ashutosh
Bajpai, Puja Gupta, Sarah Thomas
Director: Toony
The director’s attempt to make Hastey Hastey a youthful,
musical, romantic comedy with a twist in the tale, has
met with lukewarm response. We also have the three
Rajpal Yadavs who “tries” to be funny but audience is
not amused with this guy who keeps saying "dude" and
starts running after every white-skinned girl.
The film is about Neel (Jimmy Sheirgill), a brilliant
student at Columbia University and the pretty Maya
Fernandez (Nisha Rawal) the love of his life, are on the
verge of starting a new life together in New York. Sunny
Malhotra (Rajpal Yadav) is Neel's roommate, teammate and
conscience. Academically challenged and a compulsive
flirt, he gets involved in a series of hilarious
situations with his American love Tina (Sarah Thomas).
Rejection is something that Tanvi is unable to handle,
and now this revenge seeking girl creates a trap which
leads Neel in to deep trouble professionally and
personally. Now a packet containing pics showing Jimmy
getting cozy with Tanvi reaches Maya in the US. Maya’s
father now is not keen on Neel and even Maya dumps Neel
and is ready for marriage with anyone else but him. Here
in India, Tanvi plots and gets Neel involved in a fraud,
making his life more miserable.
Then there is one very famous author who is a friend of
Jimmy who always knew that Neel was innocent. After much
struggle, Neel manages to prove his innocence. On the
TV, this author informs audience how Jimmy is a gem of a
person, after all he has now been acquitted of fraud.
Nisha manages to catch this footage, instantly changes
her mind and even calls off her impending marriage. She
comes back to India in search of Jimmy and in the end …
like any other bollywood movie.
Jimmy Shergill the usually talented actor, struggles
here to carry off convincingly as the student in the US.
Rajpal Yadav though given 3 different roles in this film
is barely okay with his usual buffoonery. Infact, the
comic angle in this movie does not work well as most of
the jokes are tasteless.
