The fantasy for beautiful ladies never fades it doesn’t matter how
old men grow. The Shaukeens displays the unending fantasy of the male
fraternity in a light-hearted manner, which is self-deprecating and has
rarely been seen in the movies.
Lali (Anupam Kher), KD (Annu Kapoor) and Pinky (Piyush Mishra) are frustrated from their personal life and KD being more ‘rangeela’ among the three leads them in reviving their days of infatuation.
The trio after not getting any success in wooing the ladies of almost half of their age in their town flies to Mauritius. They are hosted by Ahana (Lisa Haydon) to whom they try to impress with their weird yet funny techniques. But Ahana is looking for the superstar Akshay Kumar, played by himself and wants to date him for once. The three consider this as a way to impress Ahana. Just they have to do is to influence ‘the alcoholic superstar’.
But is it that easy? Find it out yourself. Director of ‘Tere Bin Laden’ fame does a justifiable job to the script penned by Tigmanshu Dhulia. The story of the three men who are off their middle age mark and couldn’t resist bringing the temptation in their independent life is well presented by the director.
The icing on the cake is actors’ performance. The wolf pack of the three gives a brilliant act to their characters. Annu Kapoor is a man with good humour and in ‘Vicky Donor’ we have seen it. The classic actor is once again deliciously brilliant.
Anupam Kher, as we all know can pull of both comic as well as serious roles with ease, brings excitement and naughtiness with brilliance. Piyush Mishra whose even serious roles turn out to be comic is great.
Akshay Kumar suits in his character of an alcohol fanatic superstar. Lisa Haydon looks beautiful as well as gives a fine performance.
Music by Yo Yo Honey Singh, Hard Kaur, Vikram Nagi and Arko Mukherjee is wonderful. Meherbaani is the pick from the album.
Rating:- 3/5
