CAST: Vir Das, Linda Arsenio, Manjari Phadnis, Indraneel Sengupta

DIRECTOR: Manoj Tyagi

A bunch of Mumbaikars hang out at Mumbai Salsa, a night-club, the way the Friends gang do at their Manhattan coffee shop, talking of love and relationships, and, sure, sex, baybee. They have affairs. They break-up. They go to bed with strangers. They do all of this, but, at the end of the day, as the clicheacute; goes, they are all looking for the most clicheacute;d Bollywood end: all8217;s well that ends well in a mandap.

There are moments that spark in this film made by a first-time director. There8217;s also stand-up comic Vir Das trying his hand at being earnest lover, and he8217;s quite sweet once in a while. A couple of girls aren8217;t bad either. But the film doesn8217;t really have the voice it is intending for. In the next one, perhaps?
