Sajid
Khan's
movie
Humshakals
had
a
great
opening
on
the
first
day,
with
the
movie
even
beating
the
Box
Office
collection
of
Holiday
and
2
States.
Now
a
lot
of
people
including
myself
are
shocked
at
this,
simply
because
the
movie
didn't
deserve
such
a
huge
opening,
at
least
if
the
critics
review
is
anything
to
go
by.
While
some
critics
gave
1.5
stars,
others
gave
0
stars;
the
movie
has
been
called
boring,
dim-witted
and
outrageously
irritating.
Some
of
the
daily
newspapers
have
even
asked
a
ban
on
Sajid
Khan's
films.
After
the
Himmatwala
debacle,
one
would
expect
Sajid
to
be
more
cautious
for
his
next
movie,
but
knowing
that
Sajid
wrote
this
story
during
that
phase,
maybe
it
was
obvious
the
movie
would
be
this
bad.
But
for
Saif
Ali
Khan,
this
is
a
new
low,
the
man
is
a
great
actor
whose
performance
in
Omkara
is
still
remembered
today,
he
has
given
quite
a
goo
hits
like
Cocktail
and
Love
Aaj
Kal
in
the
recent
years
but
this
film
has
brought
his
career
to
a
new
low,
The
movie
was
so
not
his
stature,
same
goes
with
Riteish
Deshmukh
who
is
brilliant
at
comedy
and
now
we'll
be
seeing
him
in
a
negative
role
in
his
upcoming
movie,
Ek
Villain.
As
far
as
the
promos
of
the
Ek
Villain
is
concerned,
Riteish
seems
to
have
given
a
good
performance
but
hopefully
it
doesn't
go
unnoticed
due
to
this
huge
debacle
of
Humshakals.
Well
coming
to
the
movie,
Humshakals
can
get
really
torturous
to
watch
in
the
theatres
and
while
there
are
many
reasons
for
it,
I
am
going
to
be
listing
just
the
top
10
reasons
why
the
movie
is
outrageously
torturous.
10
Reasons
Why
Humshakals
Is
Torturous
To
Watch:
Reason
1
Prince
Charles
is
part
of
a
board
meeting
in
a
private
company
and
he
can
apparently
speak
as
well
as
understand
Marathi
and
Hindi.
Really?
Like
when
did
that
happen?
Reason
2
Sajid
has
invented
a
new
dish,
cocaine
ke
parathe.
Now
I
didn't
know
that
this
was
possible.
But
hats
off
to
the
chef!
Reason
3
Playing
with
the
ECG
machine
brings
the
father
back
from
coma,
and
sends
him
back
again.
Wah
wah
kya
baat
hain?
Too
many
humshakals,
each
person
having
two
doppelgangers
is
very
confusing
and
irritating.
Reason
6
Himmatwala
is
used
as
a
weapon
to
torture
the
patients.
Now
well
if
Sajid
knew
how
torturous
his
movie
can
be
then
why
make
another
one?
Reason
7
Drinking
a
liquid
made
by
bad
doctor
can
turn
you
into
behaving
like
a
dog.
What
an
invention?
Reason
8
Guess
what
the
mental
asylum
in
Sajid's
world
use
to
catch
patients?
A
butterfly
net.
Yes
now
you
can
catch
people
with
one
of
those.
Reason
9
There
are
scenes
in
London
and
Mauritius,
but
the
film
is
shot
mostly
within
what
is
called
a
paagal
khana,
stuffed
with
a
lot
of
white
people
behaving
like
Bollywood's
idea
of
mental
patients.
Reason
10
Ram
Kapoor
in
drag,
oh
the
sight
is
just
dreadful!
