Umesh Shukla is a zany filmmaker & 'Dhoondte Reh Jaoge' proves that.
'Dhoondte Reh Jaoge' is about two-good-for-nothing guys who plan to make a Flop film. A unique & crazy idea! Some jokes are so so funny that you get into a full-throated roar! While some are like Akshay Kumar's comedy films, completely bland.
The first hr is entertaining, the second is not. It picks up in The pre-climax, when the premiere takes place... it's hilarious! Especially the so-done Lagaan portion. The climax, however, leaves no impact. But I don't know why, I get a strong feeling that this film will gain a Cult following in the coming years.
Performance wise, Paresh Rawal & Johny Lever rule the show, with their impeccable comic-timing. Both are superb. Kunal Khemu is lovable. The highly-talented guy isn't getting his due. Right from his childhood days to now, his acting has always been super. Sadly, none of his films have done well, and neither has made a huge fan-base. Let's hope he gets what he deserves in the coming time. Sonu Sood is passable. Soha Ali Khan is, as usual, dull. Dilip Joshi stands out. Shabbir Ahmed is excellent in a cameo.
This is surely not a good film, but much better than the crap going on right now.

Now I will not say that it is some best comedy movie coming out from Indian cinema, but certainly this movie came out as a surprise at least for me.
I was watching this movie hoping that my next 2-3 hours are going to be wasted badly, but opposite to that this movie made me laugh.
The script is well written and the movie has a natural flow.
I will suggest anyone this movie who want to laugh... remember laughing is a great exercise.
Keep laughing.
I gave it 10/10 to improve its rating mainly, but truly it deserve a 6 or may be 7.

Dhoonte Reh Jaoge for logic in the plot of this film, akin to the attempt of super-flop film Kunal & Paresh are making.
For starters, what was the logic behind the actors signing the dotted line. Beats me!!!
Kunal Khemu seems to be a good actor who at least is serious about giving his 100%. However, the accountant with locks of hair is not good characterisation.
Soha Ali Khan is hopeless. The only time her performance was average was in RDB. Safe to say, another spoilt star-child.
Paresh Rawal is passable.
Watching Sonu Sood requires pain-killer.
Johnny Lever finally gets some work after his self-imposed exile owing to the sudden emergence of the stalwarts on the TV comedy shows. Nevertheless, his idea of comedy is well past sell by date.
Hrishita Bhatt & Deepal Shaw were hardly there.
An attempt to make a spoof of movie is novel idea (it works in Hollywood) and if some serious writing was done, I am sure this movie would have worked wonders.

An underrated comedy that will cheer u up from any kind of disappointment/depression. One must surrender to its spoofs.
This movie had me in stitches, just like the film within this film, you'll find yourself laughing for all the wrong reasons and at all the wrong scenes that aren't even meant to be funny.
Kunal Khemu (or as I like to call him...'Cutie-pie') plays an up and coming accountant who gets dragged into the world of movie-making when one day while out celebrating the birthday of his girlfriend (played by Soha Ali-Khan) he is conned by a movie-producer (played by Paresh Rawal). Exhausted from butting heads with Raj Chopra (Rawal's character) he devises a plan with the help of Chopra to pull a Ponzie scheme on a bunch of fellow movie producers to invest in an epic film project they plan to sabotage for their selfish purposes.
Top notch performances by Paresh Rawal, Kunal Khemu, Sonu Sood & Soha Ali-Khan, although I could have done without seeing Soha Ali-Khan dressed up as Jodhaa from 'Jodhaa Akbar' (just one of the many films spoofed within the film).
