This is a thorough entertainer that will have the viewers saying, 'Paisa Vasool' while coming out of the theatres, especially after the major disappointments in the Diwali week. 'Hulchul' once again proves Priyan's brilliant sense of humour and even races past his earlier hits, 'Hera Pheri' and 'Hungama'. He has thrown logic to the winds and set sail. So a word of caution for the viewers - leave your brains behind at home while watching it. Treat it like you would a Bollywood masala film and you will not be disappointed at all!

'Hulchul' is about two warring families. Don't worry it bears no resemblance to Priyan's earlier 'Doli Sajake Rakhna'. Angaarchand (Amrish Puri) and his four sons (Jackie Shroff, Paresh Rawal, Arbaaz Khan, and Akshaye Khanna) have vowed to stay away from women. Later it is divulged that it has to do with a past family tragedy. It is also revealed that the reason for the feud between Angaarchand and Lakshmidevi's (Lakshmi of 'Julie' fame) family is a woman (Lakshmidevi's daughter). Lakshmidevi is looking for revenge on Angaarchand and his family. As luck would have it, Angaarchand's youngest son, Jai (Akshaye Khanna), and Lakshmidevi's grand-daughter, Anjali (Kareena Kapoor), are studying in the same college. Thankfully there is no campus romping around a la Karan Johar style.
