F.A.L.T.U

F.A.L.T.U directed by Remo D Souza and a copy of Hollywood film "Accepted" must have been done with good intentions bur fails to strike a chord.

The movie is very bad.

Story: After barely making it through their Secondary School Certificate examinations, Ritesh Virani, whose father is a Kabadia, is unable to get admission in any college. He is not the only one though, his pals Pooja Nigam and Nanj Nair are also in the same leaky boat. They attempt in vain to secure admission through the father of their scholarly pal, Vishnu Vardhan. Then Ritesh's father decides to fire his hired help and get his son to do the work, and Pooja's dad decides to get her married, the desperate friends get together and concoct a fake college 'Fakirchand And Lakirchand Trust University', with the help of their money-lender friend, Google Chand. They recruit school-teacher, Baaji Rao, as Principal, whose performance is unacceptable by his school principal due to lewd references to 'Munni's Badnami' and 'Sheila's Jawani'. Google Chand offers them a derelict mansion in Panchgani, which they must renovate, invite their respective parents and show them that they have finally been accepted in college. Things get out of hand when scores of youngsters with poor marks show up, insisting on being admitted. Unable to handle the situation, the group let things ride - but not for long - for soon the police and Mr. Vardhan will get involved - threatening to burst their bubble once and for all.

The movie tries so hard to make you laugh.

The story is copied so no marks for that.

The direction is bad.

The music is good.

Performances:- Ritesh Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi save the show from going awry.They are awesome.The rest of the actors fail to create impact.

All in all F.A.L.T.U is bad.

STORY:- Ritesh, Niranjan, Pooja and Vishnu are best friends.Life takes a turn when Vishnu secures a 94% and while the rest just pass the exams. This just pass doesn't get them admission in any college. Vishnu is also sad for them. Ritesh decides to make a fake college called 'Fakirchand And Lakirchand Trust university' in order to escape their parents anger. With the help of Google and Bajirao they make a college but with disastrous and hilarious results.

WRITING:- The story is about the youth of today who the world thinks are just useless. Also there are some parts wherein you think the story is going bizarre,. But apart from all that it entertains and conveys a strong message. (1.5/2.5)

MUSIC:- The music is great and is for the youth of today. Sachin-Jigar have done a great job. (1.5/2.5)

ACTING:- The acting from the cast is quite good especially Jackky, Chandan, Pooja and Angad. Arshad brings a comic environment to the film. Ritesh also does the same. Akbar khan was great. Mithun Da and Boman were also great despite having a small role in the film. (2.5)

DANCE:- The dances are great especially of the last song. (1.5/2.5)

BEST SCENE:- I liked the scene wherein Ritesh and Arshad tell that education is not only Science, Commerce and Arts but can also be of your hobbies.

There is only trailer available where is the movie???

A bad adaptation from a 2006 Hollywood movie accepted...

OK. I passed my schooling, but the problem is with the threshold marks!! 37%, 40% and 42%!! It is for sure that I won't be accepted in any college. So, what needs to be done? F.A.L.T.U. is how Ritesh and gang try to hide their rejection. A Fakirchand And Lakirchand Trust University created overnight, with advertisement in newspapers, a website, admission letters and a different kind of Principal (Ritesh Deshmukh) with the help of Google (Arshad Warsi). OK. Everything done. But soon the trouble starts brewing up when they realize that there are other FALTUs too and that too in the same campus!!

Go for Faltu for a refreshing take in Indian cinema. It's college all the way after 3 Idiots. Although not up to that mark, but still a good treat for the vacations. Music's good. Newcomer Puja Gupta lives to her performance, but still the lagging point is the acting. A good story plot and screenplay simply fail to overshadow poor performances, even by the veterans like Arshad Warsi and Ritesh Deshmukh.
