A still from Kyaa Kool Hain Hum
Kya Kool Hain Hum *
Dir: Sangeeth Sivan
Cast: Tusshar Kapoor, Ishaa Koppikar, Riteish Deshmukh and Neha Dhupia
A serial killer is on the loose. When the media asks Police Commissioner, “Aapki police force kya kar rahi hain?” the top cop says, “Hila rahi hain.”
We’re expected to laugh at this because Kya Kool Hain Hum is Balaji Telefilms’ and director Sangeeth Sivan’s collaborated idea of a sick joke.
There’s nothing wrong with adult comedies. But there’s not a thin but a distinct line between naughty and crude. Sivan fails to identify the difference and subjects us to an overdose of toilet humor, double entendre and vulgar gestures galore.
The story revolves around two friends, Rahul (Tusshar) and Karan (Riteish), both in search of mates. An astrologer tells Rahul that a girl with a til on her dil will change his fortune. So, in half the film, he’s peering into women’s blouses. Karan, on the other hand, manages to get the girls who con him.
The cops suspect Rahul of being the serial killer. So the police commissioner, hold your senses, asks a doctor (Anupam Kher as Dr Screwvala) to lead the case and manoeuvre circumstances to catch the alleged killer red-handed.
A pan-chewing inspector Urmila Martodkar (Ishaa Koppikar), who puts hot iron rods in eve-teasers’ backsides, is given charge of the operation to seduce Rahul and catch him in action.
Karan, however, manages to charm Kiran, a girl he’s never seen (who’s actually a guy — Bobby Darling) and his track sadly meanders around the cross-dresser’s land. Kiran’s parents call his sister Rekha (Neha Dhupia) to ward off Karan, who falls for him instead. The rest of the film is full of more confusion, more chaos and more crudity.
The film ends up as a battered adaptation of Indra Kumar’s Masti. Other than a handful of places where Sivan evokes titters, the rest of the movie is an unadulterated tragedy. There’s even a bit “inspired” from Miss Congeniality.
The dialogues? Karan’s take on a bustline, “Pehle carrom board thi aur abhi Silicon Valley ho kar aayi hai.” When asked about his hands in pockets, Dr Screwvala tells a policeman, “Mera teesra ball dhoondh raha hoon.” Karan on Urmila, “Kitaab kam kholti hain, pair zyaada.”
The basic problem of KKHH is that it cannot distinguish between its core audience — it’s aimed at the “cool” generation, but the humour caters to the frontbenchers. The second half is a burden — was the editor on vacation?
The film has been made for Tusshar Kapoor, and though he’s a fine young actor (remember Khakee?), he certainly deserved better.
Riteish Deshmukh steals the thunder once again, repeating his Masti act, but should now avoid getting typecast. Riteish’s role is half-baked, especially in the second half.
But he makes a few scenes come alive: like when he goes to Bobby Darling’s house to propose to her, and even the coffee shop scene with Neha. She looks good but has no role.
The performer-par-excellence of the film is Ishaa Koppikar, who’s done remarkably well and is the only saving grace in an otherwise disappointing fare.
Anupam Kher should apologise to his fans for accepting such roles.
Balaji really needs to do some serious rethinking before planning their next project.
One of the country’s (and probably Asia’s) most successful and respected production houses cannot be associated with films like these. It’s not “kool” at all, the K factor notwithstanding.
ENJOI!!!!!!!!
