The film's story is a wriggly mess created by Shirish Kunder, written possibly after the film had been released(same like movie created by tees mar khan in the film). But you can't blame him for ignoring one department. After all, he has only a dozen credits in the film (background score, screenplay, story, editing, refreshments on the sets taking care of farah and kids etc).
So what begins as a biopic on Khan, gradually becomes the story of the great train robbery after conjoined cons, played by MTV's twin baldies, Raghu and Rajiv, assign him to retrieve their loot which the government had seized. And it's a train robbery because the government was transporting this loot by rail(after all that day all flights gone on strike). Khan's great plan: pretend to shoot a patriotic train robbery film, while managing the act for real. Ho-hum. Khan also picks a village and casts its inhabitants to act in his film (and consequently perform the misdeed).
Now, this is when the film becomes mildly hilarious as Khan also casts celebrated yet frustrated actor Atish Kapoor (Akshay Khanna), an Oscar-hungry actor whose only mission in life is to groove on the 'Day-Ho' number (similar to Anil Kapoor's joyous leap of glee on 'Jai-ho' when he was called to receive one of the Oscars for Slumdog). Kapoor's character passionately spoofs almost every present-day-Bollywood-actor who aspires to make it in the west, complete with loud hamming and illusions of grandeur.
Anya (Katrina Kaif), a struggling actress and Khan's girlfriend is also cast in his film and her role is the film is as questionable as her role in TMK. While the fake film is being shot, she appears in every scene to enquire what she could do in it. And that is exactly her state in this film, no one knows what is the purpose of her role, apart from looking like a tart and belly dancing to Sheila ki jawani. And you can't cast her waist without the rest of her, I guess?
So I suggest you people to be at home and watch colors channel, you can catch this film without spending any penny in few weeks
if you find any resemblence in this review then its purely coincidental--hum copy nahi kiya
