Maharathi

I thought of giving this movie a try just because of the starcast....paresh rawal, nasaruddin shah, boman irani, om puri....it is a dream cast...
Later i came to know that it was an adaption of paresh rawal's acclaimed drama...
The movie was not so impressive when compared to the expectation I had b'coz of the starcast.....It is quiet boring at various instances....The plot is good...but its almost predictable...
Subhash (Paresh Rawal) is a struggling actor cum small time crook who makes money by cheating unsuspecting ATM visitors. One late night he saves a man’s life, to do so he puts his own at risk. He ends up accompanying the injured man back home. Subhash is awe struck at the grandeur and affluence of Mr. Adenwalla. (Naseeruddin Shah) Subhash realizes this may lead to a generous tip. Adenwalla impressed by Subhash hires him as his driver much to the resentment of his beautiful much younger wife, Mallika (Neha Dhupia). Subhash realizes nothings well between Adenwalla and his wife. Once a big time filmmaker, Adenwalla is now forever drowned in alcohol and is now frustrated with his greedy wife. He decides to teach her lesson by throwing upon her a ‘deadly’ challenge. What this challenge is all about and how Subhash gets embroiled into it and what it unexpected situations it further leads to forms the rest of the film.
