Review: Movie - Dum Maaro Dum

 Honestly I didn’t have too high hopes from Dum Maaro Dum. After all how creative can the makers of a film get whose title track uses music from an old hit and churns out such gibberish lyrics as “Unche se uncha banda, potty pe baithe nanga” or “aaj chair khich raha hai, kal meri skirt khichega”. But still since my wife is an Abhishek fan and I did actually like Rohan Sippy’s earlier attempt - “Bluffmaster”, we went for the movie.

Plot/Cast: 

As the title and the promos suggest the movie is about drugs and the mafia and of course by this time you all know about Goa. Goa is a character by itself in the movie. And if you’ve been to Goa before you’ll feel an instant connect.  Abhishek plays a cop who’s determined to free Goa of the drugs.  Bips is an air hostess who is into smuggling. Rana is the man with guitar-laidback, susegad. Prateik Babbar is a teen who gets entangled in the drug business. Aditya Pancholi is the drug lord – pretty much the usual ensemble of characters of films of this genre.
