BHOOTNATH - A COMEDY OF (T)ERRORS?!

Bhootnath - A Summary:




OLD Casper Meets Baghban!! A confused movie about a Scary (?) Ghost, a streetsmart kid & the old vs. new generation formula, with dollops of star power (Big B, SRK & Juhi).




Golden Oldie (Big B) deserted by his only son (Priyanshu -- WHO?) dies in seperation & haunts his OWN bungalow to prevent his son from selling it to make big bucks. Enter SRK & Juhi with a fearless & roguish kid who befriends Bhootnath & finally leads him to Nirvana (term used for want of a better synonym!).




PROS: The Kid & Big B (strictly in that order!).




CONS: Weak script, too many irrelevant & incoherent songs and a STRETCHEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD narration!




VERDICT: Worth a MISS!
