Hi Manjo, watcha doing at home?
Hi Dev, I’m answering your call !
Your jokes always remain in the pre-historic age, dear. Saw any movie recently?
Yup.
Loved it?
Liked it.
Do you recommend the movie?
Yup.
What’s the story?
No story!
No?
Nope.
C’mon, there should be a story. Think!
Okay. A doc loves a girl. The girl loves the doc too. The doc’s nurse loves him too. So, who gets the doc? Girl or nurse?
How do I know?
This is the story.
Oh, okay. Who’s starring? Tell me something about the actors too.
Salman Khan is the doc. His constant lies puts him in trouble and he becomes everyone’s scapegoat. He’s cute and comical. Sushmita Sen as his nurse is heavenly. She lits up the screen with her dances and is a femme fatale in sari! Sohail Khan as Katrina Kaif’s neighbour is a lovely prankster who’s always on the lookout to grab her from Salman’s arms. He is endearingly naughty in every frame and shares great chemistry with Salman. Katrina Kaif is Salman’s girlfriend. She’s gorgeous and finally gets a solid platform to showcase her looks and performance. Bina Kak as Salman’s domineering mother puts up a tremendous performance. Arshad Warsi as Salman’s best friend loves to flirt with Sushmita at any given moment. He is hilarious. Isha Koppikar as Arshad’s girlfriend has a miniscule role. She’s there to add masti during the peppy songs. Rajpal Yadav is another crazy flirtatious nut who hovers around Sushmita. He is funny too.
Wow...interesting starcast. Seems this movie is an entertainer, right?
Yup.
Anything funny?
Mouthshut !
Please, I’m talking about the movie.
Me too.
What da ya mean?
Bina Kak keeps shouting Mouth shut to everyone !
Lol. Anything else?
Divorce proceeding.
Man, I’m tired. Why should I bother about your ex? I’m talking about the movie.
Me too.
What da ya mean?
The court scene where lawyers Arshad Warsi and a Sanjeev Kumar lookalike who thinks he’s Thakur Baldev Singh of Sholay argue the divorce case of Salman & Sushmita. And there’s GAS in the end too !
Chee! You mean, someone in the courtroom leaves a....
Nope. I meant a Guest Appearance Specialist. A popular actor comes in the climax of the movie who...
No, don’t tell me. Let that fella’s name remain a suspense. So, this is a hilarious entertainer, eh?
Yup.
How are the songs?
Good.
Tell me more, dear.
Yeh Ladki has Salman serenading Katrina in a tropical paradise. Just Chill has the Khan brothers and Katrina going bonkers in a discotheque. Teri Meri Love Story has Salman and Sohail vying for Katrina’s attention in Dubai. Dil Di Nazar has the Khan brothers, Katrina, Sushmita, Arshad, Isha & Rajpal Yadav matching steps in another trendy discotheque. And Laga Prem Rog has a drunken Sushmita in a sexy yellow sari dancing in abandon with Salman amidst rain...
STOP. Leave some for my imagination, pal. Finally, any villains? Fight scenes?
Nope.
Wrong. You forgot someone.
Who?
My girlfriend Lena! I’d asked her for a dance last night and she refused. How dare she? So, I have Rekha for company now. If you see Lena, tell her to go fly a kite. LOL.
Lena, Dev told you to go fly a kite. He has Rekha for company!
(Pause) Hey Manjo, is Lena in your house right now?
Yup.
IDIOT! Why didn’t you say so? I....
Dev, is that you? How could you do this to me? Get lost, never ever see me again. Sob!
Lena, I’m terribly sorry. I never realised...
Dev, it’s me Manjo. Lena left.
You’re a paisa vasool a**, you hear me? You always mess up my love story. Sigh, maine pyar kyun kiya?
Yup, that’s the name of the movie !
