Screenplay and dialogues (Manisha Korde) are a big disappointment. Cinematography (Piyush Shah) is good, in fact better than Priyadarshan's recent spate of films. Choreography by Pony Varma is run of the mill. Art direction by Sabu Cyril is good. Pritam music is forgettable, apart from the title song and "Dil liya, dil diya re".
Amongst the four male protagonists, Rajpal Yadav steals the show. Sharman Joshi acts well, Kunal Khemu almost acts and Tusshar Kapoor is still trying to act! Tanushree Dutta doesn't have much scope for performance, but does ably in the limited scope. Tiku Talsania and Rasika Joshi are funny. Om Puri is wasted in an insignificant role. Asrani, Payal Rohatgi, Arbaaz Khan and Murli Sharma form the rest of the supporting cast.
Priyadarshan is bound to have a moderately successful film in his kitty yet again, but one yearns to see films like 'Gardish', 'Viraasat' and 'Saza e Kaalapaani', which he once used to make.
