Actually no, but I think that is what the director should do… u’know, give up on movie making and get back into the family business. Ok… sarcasm aside and no offence meant to the tyre buying/selling people, this movie really sucks. The premise of the script is weak but the producers could have still pulled it off with a better director, cast and screen play. Read on if you are having trouble falling sleep…
The movie starts with John Abharam getting mysterious midnight calls from guys who are in the mood for suicide. John initially being the nice guy manages to postpone a couple of suicides but the third guy actually is encouraged by the pissed of john. But no harm done and nobody dies. The calls are not gags being pulled john’s friends but genuine suicide helpline calls being made by the lonely Indians of London. Oh… didn’t I mention… the movie is based in London and specifically around the London bridge area.
The suicide helpline group mistakenly prints john’s phone number on their flyers and ask john to handle the calls until they pull off all the flyers from the city street. The heroine (pakhi) is also a sucide case and she calls john… oh god! this movie is so boring... I cannot write anymore about it… so instead I will write about a movie called “Doondthe Reh Jaoge” or something to that effect. This movie has Kunal Khemu, Paresh Rawal, Saif Ali Khan’s sister and a host of other actors whom I do not know. The plot of the movie goes like this… paresh & kunal plan to produce a movie and desperately want the movie to flop (I don’t know why, since I saw it in bits and pieces). They hire a masseuse cum director as director, a not-so-hot-in-the-market actor as hero, a motley crew, and finally kunal’s fiancée (Saif Ali Khan’s sister) as the heroine to ensure a complete washout at the BO. I don’t know what happens next but… what I am trying to say is relevant because only then does “Jootha Hi Sahi” makes sense. The actress pakhi happens to be the wife of the director. And their conversation must have gone something like this… “Honey… u love me na…” he sez “haan dear”, “U don’t think I am too old na…” “nahi dear”, “U think my figure is still good na”… “haan dear”… “So why don’u make me the heroine of your movie and cast my dream boat john opposite of me” and he said “consider it done darlin! With Amir off my back, I can do anything including making people pay to watch cows poop”.
The music is nothing to write about so… don’t bother downloading or copying it for free either.
So there you go guys… Jootha Hi Sahi joins the hall of fame with other marvels like 2050 A love story, What’s your Rashee, Kites, Billu, Akshay’s last few movies etc. I strongly recommend this movie for guys who do better things in a movie hall besides of watching the movie.
