‘Arjun Patiala’ Is a Joke Without a Punchline

The Quint  

Arjun Patiala is a police sub-inspector. People want solid advice but instead that’s all he got because “Nayi jagah mein theke dhundna mushkil hota hai. ” Arjun himself uses words like BC and HK to describe the anti-social elements of his town, an example of the film’s juvenile comedy. Writers Ritesh Shah and Sandeep Leyzell have prove to be amazingly ineffectual with their punches while director Rohit Jugra seems to have left things on autopilot. It’s all very well to appear self aware, meta and spoof the typical trajectory of Bollywood masala comedies by giving us a heads up about “khamakha ka item number” before an unnecessary Sunny Leone song or turn the fight between the hero and villain into a video game face off, but if you have nothing new to say, or as in this case, nothing to say at all, it seems like a futile exercise.
