Welcome (comedy)
Cast: Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor, Paresh Rawal
Direction: Anees Bazmee
Critic rating:
WANT to laugh your way out of the year? Go watch Akshay Kumar try to tame the mob (Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor, Feroz Khan) as part of his amorous duties.
Just one word of caution: Even Akshay seems to be tiring of his laugh act by now and is displaying a sense of fatigue with the comedy show that had become his forte, ever since he put his action cuts on the back burner.
The script is familiar. Akshay falls in love with Katrina, the sassy sister of the mafia kingpins (Nana and Anil) who are happy only when they are pulling the trigger.
But he's a sharif guy and can't marry into a badmash family, because his mamaji (Paresh Rawal) says so. So he's got only one option for a happily-ever-after ending. He needs to bring the prodigal sons back to the fold and convince the bhais that bad is not good.
Truly, a tough task that does get tedious in between. But remember, there's Nana too to tide over the boredom. So that, whenever Akshay begins to sleepwalk through his role, Nana Patekar pipes up and vice versa. And when both of them trip, there's Anil Kapoor to bank on. The actor has perfected the tapori act by now.
Strangely, Feroz Khan is dull and flat and Paresh Rawal too seems typecast. Katrina has kuch nahin to do. Go for end-of-the-year gags and season-of-goodwill giggles.
