This film has been produced by Pramod Sharma under the banner of UV News Media and Communication Limited and directed by Ajai Sinha. This film falls under the genre of comedy and romance. But does it make you laugh? Read ahead the review before you go to watch it.

Story : Two bachelors who are also friends, Amit (Sharman Joshi) and Jai (Manish Nagpal) move to Mumbai to study in a reputed college. However, they become the victim of ragging on their first day. They do not even find shelter to stay. However, there is one lady Shalini Devi (Himani Shivpuri), who is ready to give her house on rent only on the condition that her tenants should be married couple. To get accommodation, they try to fool her by pretending themselves as wife and husband. Eventually they get accommodation.

Shalini Devi has two nieces named as Neha (Raima Sen) and Nisha (Riya Sen). Shalini Devi is also the principal of the same college where Amit and Jai study. Her both nieces start loving the two young men.

In the same college, a professor Deepak Varma (Manoj Pahwa) tries to get promotion. To achieve his objective, he tries to flirt with Shalini Devi.

What happens later? When does Amit and Jai's lie get caught? What is the reaction of Shalini Devi? Would both boys get married to both the nieces of Shalini Devi? All such queries are answered in the remaining part of the film.

Acting : Sharman Joshi's acting is okay but his looks are quite different from what you might have seen in his recent hit film FERRARI KI SAWAARI. And it is due to the fact that it is an old film which is released just now. It's nearly 10 years old film. In the role of Jai, Manish Nagpal is also okay. Raima Sen and Riya Sen are below average. Manoj Pahwa is average. Himani Shivpuri is a bit loud.

Script : The script is written by Raghuvir Shekhawat and the director Ajai Sinha. There are many loopholes in the screenplay and the plot is very thin and stale. You have seen two boys pretending to be lovers or couples several times to get accommodation or to fulfill some purposes. So there is nothing new in it. The room owner having two girls who can fall in love with the two tenants is also old story. The dialogues are also not up to the mark.

Music : Daboo Malik is the music director of this film which is below average.

Editing : Sanjay Sankla is the editor who has tried to do his job in a well manner but with poor script and direction he could hardly add anything special to it.

Direction : The direction is childish and confusing. Most of the things are predictable. This film is too old so it doesn't appeal you now is not the only reason why it is not good, it lacks many elements which make it a dud movie. The director has given more footage to Himani Shivpuri which is not justified and makes the film weak.

Plus Points : Hardly Anything

Minus Points : Poor Script; Weak Direction; Music below Average; Poor Performances by a few actors

Conclusion : This film is almost 10 years old. Even if it would have released in that era, it would not have done well. It is vey difficult for it to survive in theatres. And it has released with Rohit Shetty's BOL BACHCHAN so it has lost all its chances to attract even a few audiences. Even though it's a very low budget film (10 years ago Sharman Joshi's rate would not be what he charges now) it would hardly earn even its break even point.

Verdict : In the name of comedy, a dull film. To watch it in theatres is wastage of time and money!
