holding the reins, it is bound to invoke interest and curiosity. The movie, however, fails to live up to the expectations it generates as it is missing the sensibilities and the mild touch of reality and everyday life which is particular to Kukunoor’s cinema.

). Shankar one day discovers a bag full of US dollars and decides to keep them for his ailing mother. Thus, he flies away to Bangkok to escape Khan’s son wanna-be rapper Jamal Khan and his men who are on the look for him.

What’s there?

Given the fact that this movie comes from Kukunoor and Shreyas Talpade who have delivered movies like Iqbal, Bombay to Bangkok is surely a disappointment.
