Analysis:

Although the movie has subplots, it does not confuse the audience. The dialogues are witty and prove to be one more star to the movie. The narration of the story is down to earth, and the characters in the movie are of those people we come across in our everyday lives. The first half of the movie takes some time for the audience to settle in. The first half shows Kumar goofing around, and the real story sets in a bit later.
