Dulal and Moinak are struggling script-writers. As they get their first break, Dulal falls for Ruma. Who breaks up with whom?
Review: So, Sulemani Keeda is a buddy comedy that evokes the original Chashme Buddoor, dudes sharing dreams, desires and the rent. Here, Dulal (Naveen) and Moinak (Mayank) write Bollywood scripts, knocking at filmmakers' doors (in a hilarious encounter, Mahesh Bhatt offers them vaporous views but no break) while managing love, libidos and their landlord's son. The duo meets Gonzo Kapoor (Karan), ageing star-son who wants a script full of orgies and arty references. But as they start writing, Dulal falls for Ruma. With tensions brewing, whom does this keeda finally bite?
Sulemani Keeda means a niggling pain in the posterior which won't let writers sit still. The story is fresh and certain sequences - fuzzy-haired Moinak trying to pick up girls in a bookshop by sweetly smiling, "Like Wodehouse?" or Dulal learning a recipe from his mom on the phone, interrupted by an orgasm played full-volume from the next room - are hilarious. Some performances, particularly Mayank as foul-mouthed Moinak and brutal, brittle Gonzo, stand out. The dialogues - 'Delhi se aaya hai - but rape-wape nahin karta' - are fun, capturing the ironies of a city full of dudes, pseuds and some genuine talent, struggling to breathe.
