Lots of characters colliding with one another in a chaotic
situation is a regular feature in a Priyadarshan comedy and his
latest offering "Dhol", releasing Friday, about four friends trying
to become wealthy by marrying a rich girl is no different.
"Dhol" plunges into the lives of four unemployed and uninspired
youth and a rich girl to extract some funny moments. Tusshar
Kapoor, Sharman Joshi, Rajpal Yadav, Kunal Khemu and Tanushree
Dutta form the cast of the film.
The story goes like this:
"Four friends" - Sam (Tusshar), Pakkya (Sharman), Maru (Rajpal) and
Goti (Kunal) are good for nothing. They're bound together by their
ambition to make it big in life with the least effort possible.
Each one tries his hand at finding a short cut to success but ends
up being in even deeper trouble. Things get worse when the four
decide to take some desperate measures to end their misery once and
for all.
They believe that the only way to get rich without working hard is
to marry a wealthy girl. As luck would have it, enters rich Kanchan
(Tanushree) in their neighbourhood. All four set out with their
individual plans to marry her but end up discovering a shocking
truth.
When four people have four different plans to woo a girl, it will
certainly lead to confusion and some hilarious moments with
interesting twists and turns. It happens in this story too.
Apart from the funny element, crime, murder and suspense are also
woven in the story.
Priyadarshan, who once churned out the classic comedy "Hera Pheri",
hasn't managed to create the same magic with "Bhagam Bhag", "Chup
Chup Ke", "Malamaal Weekly", "Garam Masala", "Hulchul" and
"Hungama".
Will "Dhol" be any different?
