Badmaash Company

Direction: Parmeet Sethi
Production: Aditya Chopra
Star Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Meiyang Chang, Vir Das, Anupam Kher
Rating: * * * 1/2

Badmaash Company is the first ventured direction of actor cum director Parmeet Sethi. However, the movie doesn’t reflect that it is directed by an inexperienced director, Parmeet. Script was written by him only in six days but the work doesn’t seemed to be done in hurry. Shahid is back in his negative role after Kaminey movie.
The story is of four friends- Shahid (Karan), Anushka (Bulbul), Meiyang (Zing), Vir (Chandu); who want to get rich and ultimate success through shortcut. Obviously morals don’t have to do anything in shortcuts. Human’s greed doesn’t have any limits and so is with these friends.

To fulfill his dreams Karan leaves his home. With the partnership of his girlfriend (Bulbul) and two friends (Chandu and Zing), he starts his business of imports of branded shoes and their business keeps on varying according to the circumstances. Due to problems their group splits and from the top of the world, Karan falls back to the ground. Problems keep on increasing in his life. With the partnership of his maternal uncle, he and his same friends outshine in business again but this time he has the support of his father also.
After disappointing Paathshaala, Shahid is back with a good one. He gave a strong performance. Anushka has done far better as compared to her work in Rab ne Banadi Jodi. Her act very well suits the character. Vir and Meiyang justify their role. Anupam kher in the father’s act is work is outstanding. Music by Pritam, is hit.

Badmaash Company is a good entertainer and a must watch movie.
