4/10
Not Impressed

Warning: Spoilers
This movie is strictly a pastime for it has the typical Yashraj elements-glamour, song and dance, appealing visuals, etc. Where it loses big time is in the script. The pull offs by Ranveer's character are very unimpressive and far fetched like never before. Since the movie moves sequentially, I'll try to do the same.

For Parineeti, I don't get all the hype. She is no different from a typical brainless Yashraj heroine, bubbly and bimbo albeit Preity Zinta. And no, I did not find her expressionless acting to be 'cute'. For her story and character, it is as shallow as the performance, and there is nothing interesting enough here to comment.

I am impressed by Dipannita Sharma, a model who can act. She gives the character exactly what it demands. But unfortunately the character is poorly written, and this one story is the most unbelievable of the three. Fooling a self made business minded woman cannot be cakewalk.

Aditi Sharma is cute and also a performer. Her character's story is boring to say the least but it is her performance that makes it endearing.

Last here is Anushka, who looks exotic and gives a very earnest performance. Undoubtedly, she has the central role here. I can give one star each to this movie only for these three brilliant ladies. Unfortunately, her's is another poorly scripted character with nothing beyond the ms. goodie-two-shoes.

As for Ranveer, I would give a big thumbs down for his monotonous and uninvolved performance. He has great scope here to be a real charmer, but that never comes across.

The music is average, but poorly fitted in with songs coming out of the blue and seeming absolutely unnecessary. The background score is offensive and irritating. The predictability of the story will make you yawn.

I watched Dumb Laga Ke Haisha before this, and I can say Yashraj has truly evolved. Please don't regress to this level again.
