Tania Zaetta, Kamala Ning, Sadashiv Amrapurkar
Three cool women led by the go-getter Sandhya Mridul,
Australian beauty Tania Zaetta and Miss Thailand Kamala
Ning, highjack a truck which carries some diamonds and
succeed in carrying off a complex diamond heist, in the
process they kill the guards and the police escort. A
well done action sequence, though appear to be
"inspired" by the stunts of Matrix. This is the opening
sequence in the film and the most impressive too.
Gopi (Suniel Shetty) a simple man arrives in Goa from
his far away home town in order to hand over a plot of
land to his childhood friend Kishen (Arshad Warsi), as
it was the last wish of his father. Kishen is a known
conman, who swindles people with help from his
accomplice Babu (Atul Kale). He does this to pay for the
education of his sibling Divya (Mahima Mehta) who is
studying in London. Kishen convincingly also lies to his
girlfriend Anuradha (Rashmi Nigam) and insists that its
his twin brother who does the swindling jobs all time.
Gopi is a Hanuman devotee also has a heart of gold.
Though Kishan is a conman, he too is not bad at heart.
In the first half of the film, Kishen avoids Gopi since
he doesn't want to give up his flourishing business (con
jobs) and go to Hoshiyarpur just for a small plot of
land. Gopi gets a helping hand from Tanya (Anishka
Khosla), who is the daughter of the owner of KG Resorts
in his task of chasing Kishen. During the course, the
relationship changes, and now Gopi and Kishan become
good friends - but have more adventures ahead.
Now remember the diamond
heist taken place in the beginning? The three beautiful
women are stuck up at the same KG Resorts with diamonds
worth Crores of Rupees. The diamonds belong the the don
Ashish Vidyarthi, and now everyone comes to know about
it, and they rush towards the resort in a mad chase.
Gopi finds himself involved in the proceedings.
Who does get the diamonds ultimately? Does Gopi get hold
of Kishen and is able to take him to Hoshiyarpur? The
movie also has Atul Kale, Vrajesh Hirjee, Rashmi Nigam,
Ashish Vidyarthi, Anuradha, Anishka Khosla, and Sharat
Saxena..
The director attempts to make it an interesting, good
entertainer worth watching with family as well. Not a
great film since there is more of drama involved and
less of comedy in this film. There are a few witty
moments and some funny gags in the movie, but they are
too few to make any overall impact.
Whatever the few genuine
comic situations, Arshad Warsi is in his element here,
and steals the show. Suniel Shetty is not so impressive.
It appears that the 3 women from the beginning scene and
the 2 girl friends of our heroes are in this film just
as glamorous props. Ashish Vidyarti as the melodramatic
don tries to be hilarious but in his bid to be funny, he
overacts. The film's music is average. The only good
number is Samandar.
Mr Deepak Shivdasani, seems directionless in this
mindless caper, which is being projected as a comedy,
which it is not.
