After all the hype, flaunting sexy babes and hot scenes and the presence of big stars 'Boom' kicks off to a flying start this weekend to a curious crowd. But the technically slick movie has nothing much to offer other than the hype it created...

The story revolves around three supermodels Anu Gaekwad [Madhu Sapre], Sheila Bardez [Padma Lakshmi] and Rina [Katrina Kaif] who are also thick friends. They become entangled in a jewelry heist at a prestigious fashion show which changes their lives..During the show, another model trips Anu purposely on the ramp much to her public embarrassment. Her friends Rina and Sheila comes to her rescue and they confronts the model there itself. In the subsequent brawl,  to everyone's surprise, hundreds of glittering  diamonds fall from the model's hair  on to the runway. Media and the audience  snatch the diamonds as the show turns into a chaos. The diamonds happen to be priceless but stolen,  belonging to the underworld dons Abdul (Jackie Shroff ), Boom Shankar (Jaaved Jaaferi),  Saleem (Gulshan Grover) and Bade Mia (Amitabh Bachchan) due to be smuggled out of the country. Now the dons are after the three models as they hold them responsible for the failed heist..

With the hit 'Bombay Boys' under his sleeve and an interesting plot we expect another hit from director Kaizad Gustad. But this time round he disappoints. .the director has packed a lot of unwanted stuff  into the narration. Though the film starts off well it looses its momentum as the gangsters are introduced one by one and it never recovers.. the dons are depicted as completely wacky and no where near reality.

According to the director the movie is supposed to be a comedy.. a complete fantasy film. But too much of crude and vulgar stuff (spoils the fun) is by no means comical.. Technically the movie is slick and has an international feel to it.. with beautiful shots, perfect lighting and sound quality. The movie has music by internationally acclaimed Tavlin Singh and Sandeep Chowta.

The talents of the veteran, Amitabh Batchan is wasted .. There is no scope to display any histrionics in the film. .one wonders how he agreed to do the film. Likewise for Zeenat Aman who's acting after a long break. Jackie Shroff is okay so is Gulshan Grover. Some of the mannerisms of Javed Jaffrey which are really crude could have been avoided. Among the girls, Madhu Sapre and Seema Biswas are okay while others are so.. so. Padma Lakshmy is incidentally Salman Rushdie's betrothed. Bo Derek enacts the  scene from her famous movie '10', this time in a saree..

For all its hype the movie is going to be a disaster at the box office..  we rate it below average.
