Hunny: [In an irritated and exhausted tone after hearing Varun Sharma's dream for the lottery number] Chooche, why's it that it's always me who gets mauled by the wildest possible animals in your dreams ?
Choocha: [Responding to Pulkit Samrat in an innocent but stupid voice] Bro Hunny, I don't have control over my dreams do I !

Cast performance is nothing to talk about but the actors have managed to create enough chemistry between themselves. Although love doesn't come center-stage, it amuses. The music is catchy, but the lilts could've been improvised. Same theme music is used all over the 130 minutes. Cinematography, I would say, is brilliant especially shots involving mirrors. Editing is quite good.
But, since the foundation itself is slimy, I rate it an AVERAGE 5.7/10. Mixing lucid dreams with reality doesn't really prove a point. The story in second half is much like Delhi Belly & other caper films where a gang try hard to please a big boss. It's a bit clichéd but the journey adopted by the Fukreys is enjoyable. They entertain and that is what matters.
Dialogs are funny & straight, songs are good and overall, a fine comedy without classic cinema potential. Had expected more from the team.
BOTTOM LINE: A sleeper hit that can be enjoyed once, with like-minded friends.
