This is as old-fashioned as a 78-rpm record.
Scratchy, screechy and squawky, Sham Ghansham grates on the nerves.
The narrative, if you call it that, goes gaga over a Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum
pair of brothers who kiss the ground their mamma walks on. But then mumji
reveals that one of them isn't her baba. Thunder and lightning, the odd
son out is Amrish Puri's. Eeee. So go figure. Whether the oddity's Chadrachur Puri or Arbaaz Puri is the queasy question. Ass to the Shimla scenery, the Godzilla-sized Bindu and the decorative heroines, Pooja Batra and Priya Gill and you wish you could become a hermit residing on the tip of a snow-clad mountain. That would be more endurable than this assembly-whine product which batters Ram Lakhan to pulp. Ulp. Enough suffered. Honestly, if you survive till the end of the show, you deserve a gold medal for bravery. |
