Movie Review: Dostana

Dostana (would have been better named Gaystana!) is about two guys who pretend to be gay to make sure they can co-habitate with the sexy niece of the Sindhi auntie, fall in love with the niece, try to woo her, and finally get her married to a single father of a five year old to live their part in their dostana!

The first half is hilarious. The second half loses its way pretty quickly, though. John scratches his bum in his yellow and gray undies to keep his female fans happy. Priyanka looks better with each movie, and is a treat in every frame. The darling of the movie, though, is Abhishek who would probably give Ash sleepless nights with his antics... just in case...

Anywayz, a good movie for a one-time watch - but hey, keep those kids at home!

I had no choice but to take Siddhant and went through a lot many embarrassing moments during the watch and answered some awkward questions during & after the watch !! Never again !!

Dostana left me deeply unsatisfied.. Yeah I cracked up in the first half and yeah Priyanka looked great.. But I couldn't help missing the basic plot! The movie is not edited well.. The build up to show their "dostana" develop is missing.. So in the second half when lead characters made a big deal about their friendship, I really started to wonder if I slept through bits of the first half. It felt more like a David Dhavan movie than a Karan Johar movie - pure masala, good clothes, lots of jokes and no plot!

So, if you keep your expectations low, don't expect a K3G or KKHH, you're good - you'll enjoy the flick!
