Fugly movie review: Film an atrocious wannabe Rang De Basanti
The film's songs are a hit but you don't need to go to theatres to listen to them. If you are a die hard fan of Haryanvi humour, youth appeal and young face then only go for this movie otherwise sit at home and ask "Ye Fugly Fugly Kya Hai". Rating:
Fugly
Director: Kabir Sadanand
Cast: Jimmy Sheirgill, Mohit Marwah, Vijender Singh, Arfi Lamba, Kiara Advani, Anshuman Jha
Rating: 
Four friends, Gaurav, Dev, Devi and Adi. Gaurav (Vijender Singh) is a boxer and his father Ahlawat a minister. Dev (Mohit Marwah) wants to run adventure camps for foreign tourists in Leh. Adi(Arfi Lamba) is a cautious and cussed bloke. The only girl in this gang Devi(Kiara Advani)is the daughter of a soldier-dad who died fighting terrorists.
Stage is set for all fun and whenever there is some trouble Gaurav's dad's name helps them until ave a run-in with the extremely corrupt and reprehensible Inspector Chautala, who decides to blackmail them for large amounts of money in return for keeping them out of jail.
Fugly's story is very weak and confused. It is highly unbelievable and in some places laughable. A TV reporter is shown into the ICU to record a seriously ill patient's statement. At another point there is a MLA who starts firing for celebrating without caring that a policeman is coming. All cliche things are tried to showcase in a new way.
Three actors have debuted in the film, Mohit Marwah, Kiara Advani and boxer Vijender Singh. Mohit looks cute, has a good built, dances well and has a backing of Kapoor and Marwah family, so his road in Bollywood is open. Kiara is also good as a debutant. As expected Vijender disappoints. In most of the scene he is seen with straight face. He is seen punching in the air wherever dance and acting is required. So, its better that he sticks to boxing and modelling, acting is not his cup of tea.
Jimmy Sheirgill has nothing to do in the film. Anshuman Jha has once again proved his acting range but then again he also doesn't have much to do.
Kabir Sadanand had debuted as a director through Fugly. he has added many elements for a hit debut but he lacks in story department. First half is still bearable with youngsters' fun, songs but second half stretches to boredom.
The film's songs are a hit but you don't need to go to theatres to listen to them. If you are a die hard fan of Haryanvi humour, youth appeal and young face then only go for this movie otherwise sit at home and ask "Ye Fugly Fugly Kya Hai".
