SCOOP!! & NEWS Bunty Aur Babli: Entertaining!27th May 2005 23.20 IST By Nitika Desai Bunty Aur Babli is a light-hearted flick with tongue-in-cheek humor. The movie is no laugh riot but it is indeed a sweet tickler. Throw logic and rationale aside. Take an interesting story of two small-town characters, turn them into two crooks conning all and sundry, add ample doses of hilarious situations and spice it up with an ‘item’ and you have the laughathon named Bunty Aur Babli . 
Starring Abhishek Bachchan , Rani Mukherjee and Amitabh Bachchan in main roles, Bunty Aur Babli is a Yashraj banner movie directed by Shaad Ali. The film has Abhishek playing Bunty aka Rakesh, a small-town guy who spends most of his waking hours dreaming about schemes to make big money. His mind is a fertile ground for craziest of ideas to turn rags into riches. In another UP town lives the starry-eyed Babli aka Vimmi (Rani Mukherjee). She spends her time watching mirror and dreaming of becoming Miss India someday. But the reality at her home is starkly different. She runs off to realize her dreams. Circumstances bring together Bunty and Babli, the two ambitious souls with holes in their pockets but grandiose dreams in their heads. The two chum up. And thus is formed the team of two tricksters who con people, strike un-imaginary hoax deals (like leasing out Taj Mahal) and loot banks. Businessmen, investors, politicians, hoteliers – anyone with whom Bunty and Babli spend some time is later left minus his/her assets. B&B become legends. The two unassuming swindlers hit headlines across the country for their daring and imaginative cons and robberies. But one cop, Dashrath Singh (Amitabh Bachchan) has vowed to bring the two crooks to the book of law. The first half of the film is extremely engaging – the encounters between Bunty and his father (Raj Babbar), and between Babli and her parents (Puneet Issar and Kiran Joneja Sippy) are amusing. The second half slackens in pace. The story veers off from fun and frolic into a bit of melodrama. But the denouement to the story is light-hearted and will send everyone back home with a smile on face. |
