A light hindi comedy directed by Umesh Shukla and Ronnie Screwwala is a pleasant watch though it doesn't leave a lasting impact. The story is weak and the presentation quite shallow but the absence of malice makes it entertaining. Paresh Rawal and Johny Lever shines as usual but Sonu Sood in his quadruple role is quite ordinary and Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Khemu were underutilized.
There are mainly two characters around whom the plot revolves. The first is a hindi film director, Raj Chopra, who though remains down in debts but maintains a polished appearance by his smart innovative techniques which he also employs to evade his creditors. The second is the idealistic chartered accountant Anand Pawar who starts his life by shunning any short-cut way of earning money but finds himself kicked out of his company as a result. There is also his ladylove, Neha, a drama artist cherishes her dream of making it to the silver screen. Now, both Raj & Anand seem to have one thing in common and that is they both are short of cash. So though, they can't see eye to eye in any matter yet destiny forces them to join hands in hatching a plot that apparently ensures a 100cr profit for the two. The plan was to produce a film of 5cr and taking the same amount from each of the 21 financers, each being oblivious to the other's contribution. As it is meant to be a flop and thus a 0 profit movie, the financers won't bother for their share. To carry out their plan they employ the worst script writer Ashraf Pervez on a payment of Rs1000 and the superconfident filmstar Aryan who in turn urges the two to employ his masseur as the director. This done, Raj insists Anand to consider Neha as the heroine as an actress of no experience is bound to worsen the movie.
So with this pack of mostly inexperienced cast and totally rot crew, the joint venture of Raj and Anand promises a grand flop. But alas, the audience seems to disagree and the film make a huge hit thus dealing a crushing blow the actual plan. Raj-Anand makes it to gaol and Neha seems to drift towards Aryan. But a happy ending awaits the viewers though most of them surely will 'dhoondte reh jaaoge' (keep searching) about the moto of the film.
