Sunday

Sunday : In a straight review Sunday is not what you expect after seeing the promising promos. It's a mixture of thriller and comedy sequences. Whereas the comedy sequences are highly enjoyable, there is no thrill in the suspense and murder mystery element of the script. The film is said to be a remake of a HIT Telugu film ANUKOKUNDA OKA ROJU [2005]. The Telugu original must be more enjoyable fare as it was a big hit but the Hindi version lacks the right punch needed for a blockbuster. In fact director Rohit Shetty seems confused in whether to make a comedy film or a fast paced thriller. Many plots and characters are deliberately inserted, which are clearly spotted by a average film-goer too. For instance :

1. Ajay Devgan's character of a ice cream eating cop is the most unimpressive one. He just plays the role and doesn't seem to be interested in the movie at all.

2. The murder mystery has no surprise element in it as some unknown character just enters the climax as the main culprit.

3. The most disappointing thing is that Irfan Khan, an actor of endless capabilities has got no definite role and he is just included in the movie to add to its project value. He has no involvement in the script and is just wasted as a comedy character. However it is his own brilliance that he again comes up as the best thing in the movie with his excellent comic timing.

4. Even Arshad Warsi, is not given the mileage he needed and he is also just another character in the script.

5. The action sequences on the actual locations of Chandni Chowk, Delhi and the item number of "Esha Deol" are clearly added as the last moment insertions. The director could have easily avoided them.

6. Ayesha Takia working as Cartoon Dubbing artist is given unwanted footage. She just acts in the movie as a routine work.

The script surely has a new concept, but is not handled in a promising manner. Music is also below average.. The only enjoyable moments in the movie are the scenes with Arshad Warsi & Irfan Khan. They both are highly entertaining together and the viewer keeps waiting for them to come on screen again. In all, Sunday is certainly not a good thriller movie but can only be seen once for the comedy by the talented pair – Arshad Warsi & Irfan Khan.

Sunday has made my Sunday a fun day. Yes, it's not a brilliant film of course but a good film to watch in free time. The story idea which was taken from a Telugu film is good. It's about a girl who has forgotten a day of her life. Now, she's finding out the mystery of that Sunday.

Because of this mystery you'll be engaged throughout the film. Actors did a very fine job. Loved the moments whenever Arsad and Irrfan appeared on the screen. Don't expect too much, it's just a nice film with good comedy sequences. At least it's far better than the recent released films of Rohit Shetty like Golmaal Again, Simmba or Sooryavanshi.

I won't write much about it but will definitely say i wasted my time. I thought rohit shetty's film never disappoints so i choose to watch this but i was wrong. There was some parts that actually made humour now but was not so impressed. Thank you.

I was pining high hopes on Rohit Shetty after I watched his highly deserved, less-acclaimed "Zameen". Sunday seemed more suited for two- episodes suspense thriller on telly. The plot is paper-thin and execution is bad. And if this is a direct copy of the Telugu movie "Anukokunda Oka Roju", then shame on you Rohit!!!

The comedy track between Irfan Khan and Arshad Warsi does evoke a few laughs. The senti OTT, lend me a shoulder story of Arshad Warsi is unwarranted.

Performance wise, all were good. Ajay Devgan, Ayesha Takia, Ifran Khan, Arshad Warsi etc. But in all honesty doesn't deserve such a huge ensemble.

Ajay Devgan and Mukesh Tiwar's gay poking are not in good light.

Songs are good. The suspense was bad (read childish!).

The performances of irrfan khan and arshad warsi was very very awesome in comedy roles. Irrfan khan is like a best in performing comedy roles also. I watched this movie because of irrfan khan's character. Other actors like ajay performance as same like other films.
