"Bas karo yeh havas ka nanga naach !"

A crackling first half deteriorates quite badly midway through the second…becoming unnecessarily maudlin, sentimental, and ruins the overall message of the film…There is still much to admire in the film, though, especially the situations woven (incl the tantalizing intermission point) and the sizzling dialogue which, in the good old days, would’ve led to a chavanniyon ki baarish every 5 minutes or so !


"Tu dinosaur ki biradri ka hove, ke doosri biradri se shaadi kar lai to extinct ho javega ?"

Kangana and Madhavan break up while settled in the UK. He goes to an asylum there, while she returns to Kanpur. And when, at the instigation of best mate, Deepak Dobriyal, he serves her divorce papers, she decides to revisit her good, old days (and friends), with Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub (an illegal tenant in her parents place)…everything is going swimmingly until she meets old flame, Jimmy Shergill once again. And Madhavan meets her doppelganger – a young, Harvanyi spouting girl from Jhajjar, a bob-cut version of Kangana…and then things are never the same again !



"Sex ? Woh to do saal pehle, Bhaiyya Dooj ke din…."

The true hero of the film are the one-liners…mostly delivered via Deepak Dobriyal, who also delivers amongst the best performances of the film. Kangana breathes fire, especially in her hockey wielding, college going avatar – the other one I don’t quite get, who thodi baavli si hai. Zeeshan Ayyub gives a riveting performance in a small but meaty role, while Jimmy Shergill and Rajesh Sharma (has a couple of great scenes) catch the eye despite having miniscule screen time. The whole bit around Swara Bhaskar and her husband (Eijaz) was unnecessary, as was the ‘Komal’ angle and extremely long drawn out final wedding sequence…



"Yeh kya mazaak hai ? Original bhi mera aur duplicate bhi mera ?"

There are some scenes which really stand out…Rajesh Sharma’s speech to his village elders…the non-stop diatribe by Madhavan’s mom (Dipti Mishra) to her husband, the (hold your breath) pony-tailed KK Raina and his final riposte… the ‘dekh, kabootar’ trick…There were also some great messages not too subtly delivered - about self-reliant, independent women, about progress and inter-caste marriage – too bad the end let the tempo drop and kind of diluted it all…still worth a watch, though, and with a peppy soundtrack, not bad as sequels go.
