Dhoondte Reh Jaoge is a pleasant surprise, frankly. Let's admit, we've witnessed a craze of irrational comedies in the past and laughed during most of them really. Dhoondte Reh Jaoge is also uncontrollably nonsense, but, thankfully, with a tale.

Okay, now let's alert you... Don't wear your thinking caps for this one. This movie is plain silly. It has a outrageous storyline (two good-for-nothing desperate to make a flop film), the most ludicrous jokes (Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever and gang), the most tacky sets... yet, this movie works. It entertains and most importantly, makes you laugh at the right places.

Feeling miserable or low? Has the worldwide meltdown and recession hit you like a ton of bricks and you need a break? Try out Dhoondte Reh Jaoge. It's silly, but fairly funny!

Anand (Kunal Khemu) and Raj (Paresh Rawal) are perhaps the two most great individuals that have walked the city of Mumbai. While Anand is a chartered accountant, Raj is a movie producer.

They hatch a plan to raise big funds to produce a feature movie and then actually make it at a meager amount. Actually, they decide to make it so poorly that audiences would reject it on the first day of its release. Anand and Raj believe this would give them a perfect chance to decamp with the remaining huge amount they've raised for the making of this venture.

But the movie turns out to be a massive hit. Now the financers and distributors are after Anand and Raj for their chunk of shares from the huge profit.

In movies like Dhoondte Reh Jaoge, the emphasis is not on story, but on the entertainment quotient and the movie works on that level. The jokes are quite funny at times and the amusing dialogues do the trick as well.

But you can't close your eyes to the deficiencies in this project. If the first hour succeeds in transporting you to ha-ha-land, the film dips in the second hour, but picks up Speed in the pre-climax, at the big nite - the premiere screening of the movie. Plenty time is devoted to the movie made by Paresh and Kunal, comically called 'Solay Se L'Gaan Tak'. The satire on Sholay, D.D.L.J., Gadar and Lagaan are simply very funny.

Director Umesh Shukla may not be a talented technician, but he succeeds in keeping your eyes glued to the screen for most parts of the movie. His choice of actors is wonderful. Sajid-Wajid's music is of fast-forward class.

Paresh Rawal and Johnny Lever steal the show with their faultless comic timing. Both excel in their individual parts. Kunal Khemu is a surprise. Sonu Sood plays the moody and tantrum throwing star to perfection. Soha is wholly in sync with her character. Dilip Joshi (as Soha's uncle) is top notch.

On the whole, Dhoondte Reh Jaoge is silly, but quite hilarious. It might just work with people who are looking for some time pass fun.
