Cast: Yukta Mookhey, Govind Namdeo, Vijay Raaz

Director: Arshad Siddiqui

Wait, it gets worse. Yukta Mookhey in and as ‘Memsahab’. And who might that be? The one-time beauty queen trying her hand, again, at stardom, as a golden-hearted whore pushed into the oldest profession by evil circumstance. And a couple of villains, who raped her mum, and shot her dad dead.

In the first half, Ms Mookhey wears ‘lehenga-cholis’ and battles ‘gali ka goondas’ ; after that, she gets into skinny skirts, picks up a gun, and goes after the bad guys. It’s all very, very loud, and Govind Namdeo gets to sport of a toupee and a leer.

Shudder.
