Being the first release after the 2 month dry spell at film theatres post IPL, audiences were enthusiastically awaiting a picture. While in totality it does fall short of being the big great summer entertainer that it is been claiming to be, it however manages to bring many laughs for you. “The fact is that critics don’t have to tell me whether my film is good or not. It is the job of the audience and they would decide if ‘Housefull’ works for them,” Sajid quoted during production.

Sajid, who also wrote the film, strains too strong to add humour to all frame. He resorts to the everyday gay and Gujarati gags. Much was expected from Sajid Khan who has been literally claiming from rooftops for weeks now that he has made the year’s biggest blockbuster. Besides, Sajid Khan swears by wholesome entertainers, so it’s only natural to expect Housefull to bring the house down.

To give Sajid due recognition, he has created many rip roaringly comic situations that are further elevated by his actors. Amongst the most hilarious sequences are most of the scenes featuring Akshay and Ritesh together sharing excellent chemistry.

It’s not merely an assemblage of funny sequences or a mere montage of comic scenes. The story is about pretenses, and how in the name of saving one’s face and reputation, lies lead to bigger lies, stemming from wanting to impress family members. Housefull narrates the story of Aarush (Akshay Kumar), the unluckiest man in the world!. Being simple and helpless, he believes his bad luck can vanish if he finds true love in life. In this quest for true love, he gets married to the daughter (Jiah Khan) of a wealthy businessman Kishore Samtani (Randhir Kapoor). Then another beauty Deepika Padukone enters the plot and falls in love with Aarush. But complications follow thereafter as Sandy’s brother, Major Krishna Rao (Arjun Rampal) and Hetal’s (Lara Dutta-bobs wife) father, Batuk Patel (Boman Irani) enter the scene. How Aarush and his friend Bob (Riteish Deshmukh) sort out of this jumble, forms the crux of the picture.

Every actor in this picture takes the picture to the next stage. Complete movie housefull review is not given here.Akshay Kumar is superb as Aarush. All those who felt that the actor tends to grow loud or wishes to be restricted will alter their opinion with this film. Riteish is brilliant as natural. He doesn’t give you an impression that he is acting. The story’s main focus is Akshay, eben though Riteish stands shoulder to shoulder with the hero. Arjun Rampal is fantastic. Deepika is a surprise. She carries her part with awesome confidence and again, post Om Shanti Om and Love Aaj Kal, Housefull is the film that would make public spot her skills as well as beauty. Lara is a seasoned player when it comes to comedies and she’s too good at it once again. Her scenes with Riteish in particular and also with Boman are first-rate. Jiah also excell in her role.
