When
a
film
has
Rakeysh
Omprakash
Mehra
as
the
producer
and
talented
actors
like
Deepak
Dobriyal,
Shreyas
Talpade
and
Om
Puri
attached
to
its
credit,
it
tends
to
increase
the
expectation
of
the
viewers.
However,
Teen
Thay
Bhai
is
a
brilliant
concept
gone
in
vain.
The
sailor
of
this
ship,
director
Mrigdeep
Singh
Lamda,
who
made
his
debut
with
Teen
Thay
Bhai,
has
missed
a
big
chance
to
prove
himself
in
the
industry,
even
after
having
a
potential
cast
of
Om,
Deepak
and
Shreyas,
with
branded
backing
hands
of
Rakeysh
Mehra
and
PVR
pictures
and
a
brilliant
crew
including
cinematographer
Ashok
Mehta.
Chixie
(Om
Puri),
Happy
(Deepak
Dobriyal)
and
Fancy
Singh
(Shreyas
Talpade)
are
three
brothers
in
the
film
who
prefer
to
be
left
alone
without
having
anything
to
do
with
the
each
other.
However,
these
three
brothers
come
together
because
of
a
weird
clause
posed
in
front
of
them
by
their
grandfather.
Their
grandfather
has
left
these
three
brothers
with
millions
of
money
as
an
inheritance,
however
to
get
the
money
they
will
have
to
fulfill
the
clauses
that
is
set
forth
by
him.
They
have
to
spend
an
entire
night
together
at
an
abandoned
cabin
in
the
estate
of
their
grandfather.
They
will
also
have
their
dead
grandfather's
ashes
as
their
company
for
the
night.
The
story
follows,
with
these
brothers
coming
together,
despite
hating
the
very
sight
of
each
other.
While,
the
first
half
of
Teen
Thay
Bhai,
manages
to
grab
your
attention,
the
second
half
is
heart-breaking.
When,
one
expects
the
three
brothers
to
unite
during
the
sessions,
the
script
leaves
the
viewers
disappointed.
There
is
a
clear
writing
problem
in
Teen
Thay
Bhai.
The
script
is
amateurishly
woven,
with
weird
situations
of
the
three
bothers.
While,
the
film's
concept
on
brotherhood
was
a
refreshing
idea,
the
poor
script
writing,
acts
as
a
hindrance
for
the
first
time
director
Mrigdeep
Singh
Lamba.
The
cinematography
of
the
film
is
beautiful
with
the
minute
capture
of
the
Kashmiri
locales.
The
only
music
track
that
manages
to
hold
your
attention
throughout
Teen
Thay
Bhai
is
'Pigeon
Kabootar'.
The
credit
for
that
goes
to
Sukhwinder
Singh,
Ranjit
Barot,
Mohit
Chauhan
and
Daler
Mehndi.
Gulzar's
funky
lyrics
also
added
to
the
number.
Om
Puri
is
seen
exceeding
the
normal
bounds
in
the
film,
while
Deepak
Dobriyal
brings
his
theatrical
touch
to
the
character.
Shreyas
Talpade's
random
effort
to
make
the
audience
laugh
is
clearly
seen,
though
he
manages
to
deliver
some
smart
one
liners.
Ragini
Khanna,
has
transformed
well
from
the
television
world
to
the
Bollywood
industry.
She
adds
a
lot
of
freshness
to
the
plot.
Yograj
Singh
(Yuvraj
Singh's
father)
is
perfect
in
Teen
Thay
Bhai.
As
a
whole,
the
film
will
leave
you
wondering,
why
did
you
spare
your
two
hours
for
a
film
like
this.
