Acharya rents a flat in an apartment only meant for Sales tax employees. Every now and then, a vigilance raid occurs in the apartment and then he has to hide in the terrace and stay there all night. Mehak Malavde (Neha Dupia), a struggling dancer moves in as his neighbor. The two neighbours regularly have fights. One night, there is another vigilance raid on the apartment. Mehak gets caught and gets thrown out of her flat. Vidya manages to escape since he came home late that night. Having nowhere to go, Mehak breaks into Vidya's apartment and plans to live there. Since Vidya hates her, it becomes impossible for him to stay with her, but she gives him no options.
Preeti Arora feels that Pappu Can't Dance Saala is an honest effort as compared to the recent flood of no-brainers.
Welcome back Mr Naïve Do-gooder.
Not that you've been away for long. Especially Mr Vinay Pathak, who has done these roles often enough in the last five years -- Dasvidaniya, Chalo Dilli etc, etc.
The success of one film (Bheja Fry) has ensured that we must endure simpletons as protagonists in at least a dozen more of these mind-numbing avatars. It's time directors and producers wake up and smell the coffee: Simpletons do not always ensure big-time laughs and break box office records.
Vidhydhar (Vinay Pathak), a medical representative, has just arrived in Mumbai. He isn't fazed by city life, on the contrary, he's convinced about his moral superiority. He lives in an apartment meant exclusively for government employees because that's all he can afford.
His next-door neighbour is Mehak (Neha Dhupia), a dancer from Kolhapur, one of the thousands venturing into the nebulous world of entertainment in search of superstardom. Opposites clash, egos swell, and vengeance must be sought at all costs.
What saves this trite scenario from plunging into utter boredom is the convincing chemistry between the lead pair. Mehak's display of overt aggression effectively covers up her vulnerability. Vidhydhar sees through his neighbour's manipulations but doesn't succumb to her charms. Their relationship develops gradually as hostility is replaced by trust and then friendship.
Pappu Can't Dance Saala is Saurabh Shukla's third directorial venture. The plot focuses so exclusively on the romance between the couple that it reduces the other characters, be it the society secretary or Vidhydhar's colleagues, to caricatures.
Issues such as civic hygiene and urban noise levels are touched upon in a casual, lackadaisical manner and as a backdrop to the romance. Simplistic to the point of being ignorant, Vidhydhar is unrealistic, even making allowances for the fact that he has grown up in the sheltered world of Benares and not the corrupt city of Mumbai.
Some crisp dialogue and witty repartee saves the first half of the film, but post-interval the usual preachiness takes over and its one big yawn. You've had your fun initially, now it's time for the value education lesson.
The supporting cast boasts of big names who seem to have been thrown in without much thought. Sanjay Mishra as the owner of a food stall fails to make an impact. It's too insignificant an appearance for the actor whose popularity has soared after Phas Gaye Re Obama.
It's great having Naseeruddin Shah in a film. But, again, it's a pity his role is so small.
Rajat Kapoor as the long-haired middle-aged choreographer is convincing. The actor has come a long way from his stilted performance in Dil Chahta Hai.
Neha Dhupia flaunts her well-toned body. And sticks to the maxim of 'less is more'. She displays restraint and refrains from over acting. A wise decision considering Vinay Pathak never misses an opportunity to ham it up.
Pappu Can't Dance Saala is an average film with some decent performances but it is an honest effort as compared to the recent flood of no-brainers (Hum Tum Shabana, Tere Mere Phere or Bheja Fry 2).
Rediff Rating:
We all know that song and dance sequences are the USP of our films. Having two left feet in this industry is quite difficult for our actors to survive. Here is the list of actors who can't dance for peanuts...
Ajay Devgn
Ajay Devgn maybe a great actor but when it comes to dancing, its clearly the other way round. At a recently concluded reality show, the actor even agreed that the actor's biggest fear is to dance in films. But never mind considering the actor's growing popularity, he can surely woo his fans with his fine act and class performances.
Kalki Koechlin
The Dev D girl has grown as an actress by heaps and bounds. She was always seen in middle-of-the-road films but coming to 2013, Kalki is seen in Dharma production's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. In this urban rom-com, the actress is seen doing some latkas and jhatkas but all in vain. Going by the glimpses of her upcoming film's videos, the actress is surely not game in for dance sequences.
Randeep Hooda
The actor had earlier said that he is a complete anti-dance and wont shake a leg in his films. But considering the roles he is getting, he has dropped his dance condition. Now let's see how well he can surprise us with his moves!
Sunny Deol
Don't know to dance? Easy, just do the Sunny Deol dance from Jeet.. Banging your feet with your fist tight closed. We love the Deol dance (or rather the no dance show).
