Review: ‘Aagey Se Right’ is a gratuitous caper

Spicezee Bureau

With a stellar star cast like Shreyas Talpade, Kay Kay Menon, Mahie Gill, Vijay Maurya and Shenaz Treasureywala, UTV’s most awaited flick ‘Aagey Se Right’ is a big dud at the Box Office. Indrajit Nattoji’s ‘Aagey Se Right’ is a story of goofed up cop Dinkar Waghmare (Shreyas) and his mindless exploits pitched against Balma Rashidui Khairi (Kay Kay) – a dreaded Pakistan based terrorist. The flick that begins with a menacing Balma Rashidui suddenly pushes Dinkar and his goofball antics on the silver screen. Shreyas is a good for nothing bloke who ends up with a job in police force, courtesy his parents. However, with just his second day on work, our hero loses his service revolver to ruffians. From hereon stars Dinkar’s frantic hunt for his revolver and meanwhile our poor chap faces the taunts of his overbearing mother. Apart from the goofball act of Dinkar, the movie focuses on Balma Rashidui Khairi (Kay Kay Menon) and Shetty (Vijay Maurya). Incidentally, with Balma Rashidui Khairi smitten by Pearl (Shenaz) – a sexy singer, the dreaded terrorist falls madly in love with her and abandons his big mission – blowing up Police Day function. This is indeed quite unlike a typical terrorist who gives up his assignment just because of love. Amidst all this slapstick farce, Dinkar keeps finding his gun only to lose it again. However, with Dinkar’s gun being used by hooligans, our poor hero ends up saving the lives of possible victims and this makes him a local hero in the eye of Mahie who plays the role of a reporter. Nevertheless, with a predictable climax, Dinkar finally finds his gun and is successful in defusing the bomb at the Police Day function. Yet, by the time the film reaches its climax, it ends up being a tedious and boring flick that simply fails to tickle your funny bone! With an average performance by Shreyas Talpade, the only saving grace of the flick is Kay Kay Menon and Vijay Maurya. Kay Kay is simply best in his terrorist avatar so is Shenaz Treasurywala who is looking awesome in her svelte hot bod. Mahie Gill is wasted as she hardly has any substantial role in the flick. In all, ‘Aagey Se Right’ could have been a great movie only if it was blessed with a terse script and convincing performances by its main star cast. In all, the movie ends up as a directionless escapade. Ratings: Two star for this one.
