“With lots of newness comes a film that rarely moves out of the box. Derived from his fatheru0026#39;s epic action movie, Nautanki Saala! is a very poor entertainer by Rohan Sippy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAyushmann Khurrana is surprisingly parallel with his role as a lover-boy from Vicky Donor, only that here the situations are different. He works so hard to keep up with his antics, but the filmu0026#39;s blueprint just rejects his help. Kunal Roy Kapur is annoying in the first half and towards the end, his ambiguous character touches puberty only to be u0026quot;so mature u0026amp; moved-on.u0026quot; Not just him, almost all the characters have equivocal stances related to them with newcomer Pooja Salvi still thinking she is acting in a TV commercial. Evelyn Sharma compensates for the lack of item-number here. But the song u0026quot;Life Ki Toh Lat Lagiu0026quot; is kinda cool.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere is no story, but the plot driven out of it is what makes me rate it 3.5/10. Music is cheerful u0026amp; so is the screenplay with its own share of some nice dialogs (Marathi ones), punch lines u0026amp; slapstick. Thatu0026#39;s all.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith the lead female characters used as love-toys, Pooja Salvi works in a flower shop which entertains only 2 customers, Ayushmannu0026#39;s character wanders here and there. The movie reminds us it is 2013 but fails, abruptly to make it look like it is. Very poor attempt u0026amp; I hear it is a remake. God! Why?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBOTTOM LINE: The second half is the most ennui-ridden, but if you are fan of any of the factors of this movie, I would recommend you to go for it only for the first part. One ambiguous, uninteresting movie this! And I hear Commando (another release this week) is hopeless.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCan be watched with a typical Indian family?
