KRace is slick!

Statutory warning: Any resemblance with the work done by Jumaani siblings is highly coincidental. I have been forced by this great movie to do some rechristenings:
Race as KRace:
Bipasha is Saif's girlfriend but Saif's step brother Akshaye loves her.
So Saif convinces Bipasha to marry Akshay. Akshay despite Saif's
repeated warnings becomes an alcoholic and brings no happiness
to his wife. So a frustrated Bipasha and an aroused Saif make love in
the stable. By the way Akshaye is recording the whole thing. Actually
he has teamed with Bipasha for a fool-proof plan to kill bro Saif and
split the 100 million insurance. So they push off Saif from 12 floor
showing it to be an accident. But it turns out that Saif had just
married his much devoted secretary Katrina so the money is hers! Its a
different matter that Saif comes back from the dead and Bipasha was
helping him all along....................
I havent introduced Anil Kapoor angle yet.......

Do you think Ektaa kapoor could have done better?????

Abbas Mustan as Abs- Mustang: With the amount of flesh on display both male and female, with the dominant theme of horse racing, this is a stud film!!

Sameera Reddy as Mini: ok ok that is her name in the movie and she lives upto it by wearing Mini, if not mini-mal.

Anil Fruitwala Kapoor:
Not a single shot without a fruit in his hand, from banana to apple to
orange to even watermelon. he seems like a walking talking
advertisement of pappu fruitshop. He cracks vulgar jokes and you feel
like throwing egg on his face.

KRace is a lovely movie:
Dont believe me?? Consider this: Saif loves Biapsha but Akshay also
loves bipasha. A Saif loves Akshay (brotherly love), he sacrifices
Bipasha for Akshay. Katrina loves Saif who doesnt reciprocate. Saif
marries her and dies, Then Katrina loves Akshaye. Then brother Saif
returns from dead and confesses love for Bipasha who also loves him! Now if this isnt a fill full of love then what it??? A LOVELY film.

Though
i missed the first half hour of the movie I believe that made it all
the more enjoyable ;) (recommended). The movie is like an ECG machine
gone haywire- keeps shocking you every few minutes but not enough to
cause long term harm.

Abs-Mustang are back in reckoning but go
overboard with twists, probably to make up for recent failures. People
were laughing at random moments and you dont blame them!

A watchable movie, comedy is forced, locales are awesome, action is fast and look is slick!

Tips to make the movie more enjoyable (pun intended):
1. Enter the hall half an hour late
2. Turn off the sound- believe me all the love scenes would make more sense ;)
3. Bring along a friend who can laugh randomly

Trivia
1. Akshay's role was initailly offered to Fardeen who didnt have dates (Thank God!)
2. Mallika was offered Sameera's role- wouldnt have made a difference
3. Ajay Devgan was offer Anil kapoor's role-maybe we would have been saved from vulgar jokes
4. The choreographer duo of Bosco Martis and Caesar Gonsalves turned art
directors for Abbas-Mustaan's Race. They designed a futuristic set at
Yash Raj Studios, Andheri for the title and promotional track of the
film.
