Spoofs ko Dhoondhte Reh Jaayoge!
I went to see the film as felt the spoofs would be interesting as shown in the promos and ofcourse an article revealed that around 14 different films would be shown as spoof. So, it would be a good interesting watch. Hmm, does it really succeed in doing it ?
Talking of the story, Raj Chopra(Paresh Rawal) has taken lots of money from some investors in his previous flop films which he is yet to return and Raj tries to get dates from Aryan Kapoor(Sonu Sood) who is a good actor but going through crisis too. Then, we have Anand Pawar(Kunal Khemu) who is a chartered accountant and believes in becoming rich by hardwork and not frauds,quite opposite of Raj Chopra. One day, Anand Pawar decides to go on the track of fraud as his girlfriend Neha (Soha Ali Khan) warns him that she would go to her homeplace. Anand gives a scheme to Raj chopra of making a Super flop film and yet earning a profit of 100 crores. How this scheme is implemented and does they really succeed in it or not is what the rest of film deals with...
The thing that goes against the film is that the spoof part comes way too late and there arent too much of spoof that you see,matter of 10-15 mins at max. Instead the film goes other way,developing the story how a flop film is tried to be made,getting flop singers,writers,directors and a new heroine to let the film not become a hit at any cost.
Songs arent great either,though Kunal makes nice moves in his entry song. Title track is used very welll as background. Rest arent worth mentioning.
Paresh Rawal gives another superb performance and this time I didnt feel the repititiveness at all in his act.
Asrani also was better than last films.
Kunal Khemu was good,in promos I didnt quite like him but in film felt he was much better.
Sonu Sood gave another good performance, a actor who is on high since Jodha Akbar.
Soha Ali Khan was good though this film wont do much to her image as an actress.
Johnny Lever was superb in some scenes and okish in some.
Direction is okish.Its good that film is just 2 hr 10 mins long,never makes you bored.
Climax is good,lagaan se jodha akbar tak .
In the end, its just that you are left desiring for lots of spoofs that arent in large amount at all. The Gadar one and Lagaan one were probably the best ones. And ofcourse, use of Himesh "Bolo bolo huzoor" as sambha was good one.
Overall, Dhoondhte Reh Jaayoge needs to be seen with a thing in mind that its not a complete film based on spoofs at all as there is a story build up that leads to the finale involving all the spoofs on some of the well known films. Even still, it would be at best a timepass film, one time watch film.
