He shows flair for comedy, but for a film titled Khiladi’, it lacks hard-core action, heat and the adrenalin rush that is synonymous with Akshay’s Khiladi series (maybe intentionally). There are flying cars, flying bodies, flying fists and a flying Singh too. Himesh is decent as a caricature-ish Gujju boy.ĭebutant director Ashish R Mohan’s masala potboiler style is unmistakably reminiscent of his guru, Rohit Shetty’s films.
Mithun, dons the role of goonda, but with his funny liners, he leaves us with a lot of laughs. Khiladi, she’s pulled out a few guns, stepped on the gas (crashing and speeding up cars) and romanced her balma. With kurtas as colourful as his character, nonchalant charm and playful references to recent hits ( Rowdy Rathore, Housefull 2, Singham), he proves to be sabse bada khiladi, yet again.Īsin has, without a doubt, looked her best in this film. Well, she turns out to be nothing short of a psycho baiko, in love with a part-time-prisoner called Azad.Īkshay is in his top-form, his punches are as power-packed as his one-liners. And he finds one in the feisty Indu Tendulkar (Asin) - Mumbai’s wanted don, TT’s (Mithun) sister. Enter Mansukh Desai (Himesh) a wedding-fixer, who takes on the challenge of finding a girl to match his machismo. No wonder, matrimonial rejects are aplenty (everyone wants a sawaari in a Ferrari, you see) and Khiladi bhaiyya is left ‘lonely-lonely’, with little or no action in his love life. The Singhs are a family of proud con-cops (partly for a cause), and while 72 Singh can single-handedly thrash thugs at supersonic speed, he believes in driving women around in what he calls a mardon ki sawaari – a vibrantly colourful truck – on date nights.
