Singhdumb Returns!


Here’s one more brainless sequel regurgitated by Roheat Shitty which is no match for the original moowhee, Singhdumb. So, let’s take a closer look at this moowhee and ponder over a deep and philosophical question: Why did Singhdumb Return? Couldn’t he just have stayed home? Hmm? Hmm?
Well, since he didn’t, here goes...

Now, this Bhajipao Singhdumb, played so muscularly by Ajay Gravedumb, is one helluva cop, merciless, wooden, angry and scowling... he can beat up anyone and everyone and shows you just how, by slapping poor defenseles students early on in the story. Just so you know! Talk about police brutality! And he can spew out brilliant, original dialogues like, “Atta majhi satakli!” Atta boy, Bhajipao, that’s so creative! Wonder who the dialogue writer was... Ohhh it was Roheat Shitty! Kya baat!

So the sorry, er, story goes that in Mumbai there is an x-crore population and only ‘y’ policemen protecting the junta, (where y is a small three-digit number), and they are all acting in this movie. There is an honest somebody played by Anupbum Kher, a host of corrupt politicians (notice the redundancy there?), a Baba who is a blacksheep (Baba Black Sheep), a 5-foot wide cop called Daya, the one who breaks down doors, and a motley crew of news anchors, sideys, and gangsters who are going to get the shit beat out of them. Wonder who the story writer was... Ohhh it was Roheat Shitty! Kya baat!

Now for some action... Somwhere near Chinchpokli station, a convoy of police jeeps is driving to somewhere and Bhajipao Singhdumb notices vans with hoodlums (lums with hoods) standing near them and suddenly all hell breaks lose! The hoodlums (lums with hoods) start firing machine guns, semi automatics, AK47’s while the cops go about firing pistols and other hand guns. A survey after the mayhem showed that 7,57,928 bullets were fired by the hoodlums (lums with hoods), approx 279 were fired by the cops, 467 hoodlums (lums with hoods) were killed and not one cop was injured or lost a body part. Kya action sequence tha. Who was the action director, I wondered... Wait for it... it was Roheat Shitty! Kya baat!

And so we have this Baba, black sheep, who dupes his followers in his ashram and in typical holy-man style cajoles them into divesting themselves of all their money and valuables, and I ponder over this deep and philosophical question: How can people be so stupid that they would give their valuables and family jewels to this Baba, black sheep? Hmm? Hmm? And then realisation dawns, even I was stupid enough to shell out some moolah (and NOTHING else, in case you are wondering) to watch this one!

Physics lessons anyone? Plenty of those in the action sequences, defying physics as we know it. Learn about forces, linear momentum, angular momentum, displacements, all this from the thappads and punches that our hero dishes out at the drop of a hat or a bribe. Who invented the laws of Physics in this one... Roheat Shitty?!

But, but, what about the female lead? Aaah, Kareena, the heroine, wondering what she’s doing in this movie, with no chemistry, biology or physics between her and Gravedumb... just to be on the Saif side, I guess.

And that, in a nutshell is my review of Singhdumb Returns.

Should you watch it?
Sure, go ahead, it’s a fun movie, in parts where there is no dialogue and only action.
How many stars do I award this one?
As many stars as the villains saw when they were getting “beaten” up by singhdumb!
