Director Rohit Shetty’s Sunday has one wonderfully funny character. Irfan Khan plays a struggling actor who we mostly meet when he is in costume. So one day he is Dracula and the next Don.
My personal favourite is when he puts on a cap and starts shrieking because now singers can also become stars. But even Irfan’s deadpan brilliance isn’t enough to inject life into this sagging Sunday.
The film, a remake of the Telegu hit Anukokunda Oka Roju, is supposed to be a comic thriller but it isn’t particularly funny or thrilling.
There are a few murders, a woman who can’t remember what she did on Sunday, several goons and a mildly corrupt police officer, played by Ajay Devgan, trying to tie it all together.
The trouble with Sunday is that the film is never quite sure of what it is: a madcap comedy like Rohit’s earlier Golmaal or a murder mystery. So in between bouts of low brow humour, we are supposed to get solemn about a date rape drug and a kidney ailment. Golmal had an inspired lunacy.
The lines were superbly silly. Like when a blind couple tell four young boys Aaj Se Tum Hamare Shravan Ho, one of them replies, aur Nadeem bhi.
Sunday never hits that note and the madness is diluted by the mystery, which when it is finally revealed, is so limp that the film seems pointless.
It never rises above strictly time-pass.

Surfer Speaks....
MOVIE IS GOOD BUT ONE TIME WATCH.THE MOVIE IS FILLED WITH SUSPENSE,COMEDY AND DRAMA.AJAY DID A GOOD JOB. THE SONGS ARE VERY NICE..AYESHA IS LOOKING CUTE AS USUAL....IRFAAN DID AN AWESOME JOB AS ALWAYS...ARSHAD IS ALSO SUPERB....ALL THE BEST. -- kimi aeri (kim_aeri21@yahoo.com)
Good timepass movie and Arshad and Irfan made me laugh all the time. After a long time i saw such a nice entertainer. No matter what the review given, i liked the movie and all have acted well. Irfan, here is another chance to bag the best actor in a comic role. -- Dumbledore (abdul_19_qadir@yahoo.co.in)
The concept of the movie is very unusual , it force us to think diffrently but the movie is not good. Director is not able to clear the concept . The story is so much confusing that audience is not able to understend what is going on. The role played by Arshad varshi and Aaisha Takiya play very good role. -- Panaj sharma (angelmyluv.0110)
