The Bhangra boys in RDB have been around for years now and they have even dominated the Bollywood charts at times. RDB will go down in history for their east meets west fusion with Snoop Dogg, "Singh is King" and for their latest fusion hook-up with R&B star Akon!
Friday night Manj took to twitter to say, "Ready to hit the stage, got Akon performing right now getting the crowd hype. Then we go on and rock that stage. Manj RDB.”
RDB had landed in Delhi to perform for a private event. Both RDB and Akon were requested to perform at this event and Manj told DesiPlace!, "Delhi’s always given us lots of love, we rocked the crowd and it’s always great to be with the whole team, Akon was great as always. It’s always fantastic seeing east and west blending."
Sounds like quite a memorable event. Though there is no official news on a collaboration, were hoping to hear from this interesting fusion hook-up soon. What do you think of the possibility of Akon teaming up with RDB? Leave us your thoughts below.
The Story:
"Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?" is a story that can be predicted from the title. Puneet (Ajay Devgan) is a writer who lives in Mumbai with his wife Munmun (Konkona Sen Sharma). Puneet is living his dream as he has been presented the opportunity to write a film. Munmun is a creative interior designer. She treasures her family and wants to instill great family values in her son.
This happy family, who just got their lives on track, suddenly get a visit by a distant relative, Chachaji (Paresh Rawal), who needs a place to stay. Munmun never turns her back on family and welcomes Chachaji into her house.
But things take a turn as Chachaji stays longer than expected. Drama ensues. Puneet and Munmun try every which way to get rid of their houseguest, packing in plenty laughs. Will Chachaji ever leave?
The Cast:
Ajay Devgan as Puneet
Konkona Sen Sharma as Munmun
Paresh Rawal as Chachaji
The Crew:
Producer: Amita Pathak
Director: Ashwani Dhir
Lyricist: Irshad Kamil
Music Director: Pritam
Cinematography: Aseem Bajaj
Screenplay: Tushar Hiranandani, Robin Bhatt, Ashwani Dhir
Story: Ashwani Shir
What Worked:
The story is relatable and connects with the audience. The situations are ridiculous and quite hilarious! With Munmun's devotion to family values and the continuous reference to religion, the movie stays constant with themes throughout the story.
What Didn't:
As with many Bollywood movies, "Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?" can seem long at times. Some scenes were unnecessary and ran tangent to the main plot, which diluted the fun.
The Soundtrack:
The music to the film compliments the story line with a number of devotional tracks. Pritam does not deliver any dance numbers for the charts, but his music compliments the film quite well.
Slated or Rated:
"Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?" is a movie packed with laughs and relatable scenes. We recommend it to all families. Ajay Devgan delivers his eccentric character quite well, adding to the credibility of the story.
Rating:
3/5
