The story

Three womanisers find a baby left at their doorstep. Chaos ensues as they try to contact their former girlfriends to determine who is the father amongst them.

What it’s like

Bright, saturated studio lighting gives the frames a glossy Bollywood polish: sunny urban apartments in warm yellows and pastels, bold costumes, and wide, busy compositions that let the slapstick play out in full view. The camera is brisk and cheerful, with quick cuts, zooms on comic reactions, and song sequences that break into colourful choreography. The sound is loud and upbeat, a bouncy blend of film songs and playful score that keeps the energy high. Three bumbling friends scramble over a baby left on their doorstep, and the mood stays breezy and silly, warm beneath the teasing. Vibe: bright, goofy, feel-good chaos, suited to a lazy weekend afternoon, a group watch with friends, or a light comfort rewatch. Pacing is fast and farcical, with characters who bluster and bicker before softening into affection around the child. Intensity is low: broad slapstick, mild innuendo about womanising, plenty of shouting, and no real violence, gore, or fear. Made for people who want an easygoing Bollywood comedy with big personalities and no sting.
