Director
Hriday Shetty's movie, Plan might sound like a macho film
due to presence of male stars.
But
it's nothing of that sort. There is no blood and gore. Plan
is full of funny moments which will bring a smile on your face.
The
film opens in a train compartment where four guys share their plans
and their reasons for going to Mumbai city.
We
have Bobby (Dino Morea) who dreams of becoming a Bollywood star.
There is Jai (Bikram Saluja) who is searching for his girlfriend.
Lucky
(Sanjay Suri) loves gambling and so wants to go to Mumbai to make
some easy bucks whilst Omi (Rohit Roy) wishes to get even with the
man who cheated his father.
With
dreams in their eyes, all four enter Mumbai city. But soon their
money runs out. How?
They
gamble their last few bucks by giving it to Lucky. But he gets cheated
from his winnings.
So
they decide to kidnap a businessman, collect the ransom and pay
their gambling debts.
As
luck would have it, they end up kidnapping Mumbai's biggest underworld
gangster, Musabhai (Sanjay Dutt).
But
Musabhai is having his own problems with Sultan (Mahesh Manjrekar),
a rival gangster. He is out to kill him.
So
this kidnapping has actually saved Musabhai's life. He decides on
a plan to save his girlfriend, Rani (Priyanka Chopra) from Sultan's
gang with the help of his four captors.
They
in turn get attracted to the gritty life of the underworld but Musabhai
puts a stop to their dreams. He forces them to return home.
The
highlights of the film include some funny moments involving the
four characters, a chasing sequence and some well executed action
scenes.
But
as soon as Sanjay Dutt comes onto the scene, he takes over the film
from the boys. His presence is felt from then on till the end.
Mahesh
Majrekar as Sultan, brings down the roof. He has done well in all
the comedy scenes.
On
the technical front, the film has been shot stylishly with shift
camera movements to add impact on the scenes.
Not
much can be said about the heroines who had little scope to display
their acting talents.
They
were just there to add glamour to the storyline.
On
the whole if its just entertainment you are looking for then Plan
is the film for you!
