Extremely hilarious…….what to count and what not to count….. whom to count and whom not to count…. Its v.v. difficult. Everything is just so gud. I liked Rajpal’s Hair style. As u all know,….. I love Rajpal.. so zahir hai ke ill like him too in this movie.

Almost all the scnes and diologues are kool.Specially the last part…… another HUNGAMA kind… ek ke peeche…ek… uske peeche ek. And so on so forth,.

It is very very difficult to write a detailed revu on Priya’s movies coz its just too paincheela.I surrender. Still ive tried. Now, hillarios things cannot be penned down. U have to chek it to bliv me.

U know guys…… we often say that “it was so hilarious that we fell off our chairs”.

This was true in this case……. Yesterday I cudnt chek out the last few scnes coz I was laughing so much……. My belly was aching and I cudnt dare to open my eyes to chek out the next scenes.So I had to go again Today to chek it out.

I dunno why sum pple dint like it……. Neway.. whatever… who cares!

A total paisa Vassol stuff.
