Loosly based on the life of bala saheb the movie begins in a typical Ramgopal verma style and garners the attention of the veiwers at start, but after some time loses the plot with repetative dialoges of Abhishek like "mai sambaluga" and the movie is boring till about intermission. However, post interval the plot thickenes and the movie again catches the attention of the viewers. As always Big B steals the show and over shadows the siencere effort of his son and his daughter-in law. though his role is limited in the movie his charecter is so strong that it leaves a lasting impression on the veiwers. the end is phenomenal. It is note worthy that ramu is known for always trying somthing different and here is a hindi movie with no songs which is an integral part of any story narration in indian cinema!! Overalll it is a good movie to watch...
