![]() The climax is as delusional as the outrageous optical illusion that it opts for. Monotony sets in the second half with Dubey's repetitive attempts to get rid of the money. The pace is slow, the screenplay is stretched and the proceedings never gain momentum at any point. The idea of god trying to help and humans oblivious of his presence is interesting but the execution is bad, boring and bland. The scripting by as many as five writers is a clear case of too many cooks spoil the broth. But the question to be asked is - did Dubey ever ask for money at the first place? No! So why is God hell-bent on helping him? Blah blah blah! In fact the movie literally ends with Saurabh Shukla's sermon of the Aastha channel and Miraclenet variety. The message that this parable intends to give is the age-old movie-moral that money is not everything and there's more to life than moolah. ![]() And this wealth makes him paranoid to the extent of and mental instability. Finally a frustrated God imposes crores of cash on Dubey which he is unable to evade. It's a case of god proposes man disposes. ![]() God stumbles upon Dubey in the getup of a lottery-ticket vendor, gambler, investor, policeman, et al and bestows him with big money each time, but Dubey fails to recognize the opportunities. ![]() Nevertheless God (Saurabh Shukla) comes down to earth and insists on offering him financial aid through his different avatars. ![]() He still remains optimistic that his scheme of things would make him a millionaire soon and keeps distributing his proposal pamphlets across the city.ĭubey keeps praying to God to be there for him, though he never asks for monetary help since he is confident of making it big on his own. Dubey is a middle-class man who aspires to be Ambani through his multi-level marketing schemes which nobody is interested in. Vinay Pathak attempts to repeat his common man act in the role of Rajendra Dubey but this time not to the desired effect. Films like Hulla have attempted similar deceiving deeds in the recent past and disappointed miserably. Having a BEST bus or a rickshaw picture pasted on the movie poster (despite having no relevance to the plot) shouldn't really give it the guise of a good offbeat film on a common man's life. ![]()
