Sick of the systemic corruption, a gang of four, which becomes known as the Ungli (middle finger) gang, devise clever ways to name and shame individuals who�re doing wrong � whether it�s a smart-ass pension bureaucrat, an errant RTO official, or bribe-taking traffic cops.



While the heart is in the right place, and some of the tricks the Ungli gang pull off are fun, the screenplay falls into an all too common trap for Hindi films, lumbering what could�ve been a catchy, zippy storyline with back stories, dead fathers, wronged friends, sub-plots, a couple of romantic angles, and even an amazingly out of place item number�



Also, while the ensemble cast put together is highly competent, none of the actors really sets the screen on fire or breathes life into their character- all of them kind of doing only the minimum necessary to discharge their roles. The finale is fun but highly far-fetched, and while the film does enough to keep you in your seats for its two hour duration, there are plenty of occasions when your mobile seems to offer more entertainment than available on the screen, especially when some misplaced songs erupt like jarring jack-in-the-boxes�

Someone got so excited with the idea of having two gun-toting lovers, the man a mild sort of UP-ite and the woman a foul mouthed firecracker, going around shooting stuff, robbing banks, and having sex at every opportunity�they forgot about the rest of the story�



There is a villain, Damandeep, huge, hulking, wooden, Richa�s possessive lover and kingpin of the drugs gang in Delhi but not much more. The entire film is just about Richa and Nikhil blowing stuff up � with guns or without. The dialogue is interesting, funny in parts but that�s about as good as it gets, with the highly predictable, stretched end just not working.


The best part of the movie are the sequences set to RD Burman�s classy music and Kishore�s voice from the song �Pyaar Mein Dil Pe Maar De Goli�. Nikhil delivers a competent performance, Richa looks every inch the patakha, in bed and off it, with many Indian style (censored) sex scenes (in a train, on tomatoes, in a car, in a bank locker room) thrown in to garner an audience but unfortunately, the rest of the film doesn�t really rise up to the challenge.
