The brain can't digest the fact that it saw Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy last week and Total Dhamaal this week. 10 actors who are fighting to get their hands on the big money - is a thought that could have been executed well but unfortunately, Indra Kumar failed at achieving the 'Dhamaal' level. Who reaches first? Who will leave with the money? VerdictĪ senseless and brainless comedy with a few genuine and honest laughs here and there. The director tries to plug in an emotional angle about animals in the end and that at a point made them look way better than the storyline!Īll of them have to reach one place called "OK" in a place called Janakpur, where Rs 50 crore are hidden by Manoj Pahwa (Ajay Devgn's driver). The Zoo where the money is hidden is where the climax is shot. Loud and absolutely god-fearing team!Īnd there is one more team, 'Team Animals' headed by Esha Gupta, who makes a cameo performance in the film.
Yeah, that is their plot! Along comes Johny Lever with his autorickshaw-turned-helicopter who tries to help the two reach the destination. Team 5: Riteish Deshmukh and Pitobash Tripathy: Firefighters who take bribes to save people. Every frame in the film that they appear in is hilarious! The two will leave you wanting for more, surely.
Team 4: Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi: Adi-Manav, the innocent brothers who are trying to win the race to loot the money before everyone else in their oh-so-smart and violent car is one hilarious set in itself. But nevertheless, this pair's comic timing and dialogues will leave you in splits - courtesy their years of understanding probably, but their camaraderie is definitely to look out for! Anil Kapoor's energy is 100 times more than the entire crew put together and well, let's not forget the 'Modi Punch' our Gujju character throws in during the climax with a lion. Their courtroom banter where they are fighting for a divorce will remind you of Kangana Ranaut and Madhavan's hilarious scene from Tanu Weds Manu. Team 3: Madhuri Dixit and Anil Kapoor: A Maharashtrian wife and Gujju husband.
But before he can really lay his hands on them, his driver (Manoj Pahwa), also a former animal trainer, runs away with it. Team 2: Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Mishra: Guddu along with his man (Mishra) wings his way to the 16th-floor hotel room where the big deal is happening and runs away with the money. 100 crore because it is 'demonetisation-era'. 50 crore, which is their commission for converting Rs. Team 1: Boman Irani and Vijay Patkar: Police Commissioner and his sidekick who are cracking a big deal worth Rs. The characters use all kinds of transport available to reach their final destination - be it air, land or water - and also face the weirdest and predictable hiccups in between. How the two bags worth Rs 50 crore reach a zoo and the five set of teams try to get their hands on it is the real adventure or a slapstick comedy tale of 129-minutes. The movie begins when Boman Irani, a corrupt Police Commissioner is trying to launder the money because of demonetization and Ajay Devgn steals it. Indra Kumar's Total Dhamaal this week will question your intellect! A multi-star cast film, that created the buzz by bringing back the franchise with its third sequel, is much of a disappointment than a wow film! Setting the Scene
