Plot |
Bunty(Abhishek Bachchan) and Babli(Rani
Mukherjee) are two avid dreamers. Two free souls
born into caged small town realities. They grow
weary of being two specks on the horizon. They
desire the horizon itself. And so they pack their
aspirations in worn out bags, whip a scarf of
confidence around their proud necks and set forth.
On a journey across the length and breadth of the
country, spinning circles around the people they
meet. Bunty wants to be amongst the richest in the
world. He wants to be in jacuzzis. He wants to be
in limousines. He wants to be a big blip on the
radar of history. He wants to be big black typo in
newspaper headlines. In short, he wants out of
here.In a parallel universe, in another
slump-backed, crinkle nosed small town called
Pankinagar, “Vimmi”, our heroine, faces the
same dilemma. Does she follow the course every
other young marriageable girl does? Or does she
carve new fatelines on her soft as butter palms?
In her mind (but in her mind alone!) she's the
foxiest thing to ever have hit a ramp. She's the
hottie the world can just gape at but never touch.
She is Miss India. So she too decides to fly the
coop.Somewhere along their individual journeys,
Rakesh and Vimmi meet, flogged by circumstance but
unwilling to concede. In a moment of mistaken
truth, “Bunty” and “Babli” are born. And
the world gets turned on its head. We follow the
duo through caper after caper, in which they meet
rajahs, powerbrokers, shaadi bandwallahs,
millionaires, investors, leaders, ministers,
banjaras, elephants, explorers, hoteliers, chai
boys and one very, very upset policeman.The world
sits up and takes wide eyed notice of this pair.
Bunty is the Rakesh that Rakesh always dreamt of
being, with a delicious twist.
Babli is the Vimmi that Vimmi never thought she'd
become, with another delicious twist.
Together they are more than the sum of their
parts. Together they are spiritual gurus,
bureaucrat and secretary, gangster and moll,
business partners, hen pecked husband and pregnant
wife, lawyer and sexually harassed client,
vagabonds, caught-in-a-downpour lovers and lots,
lots more. And they seem to be loving every minute
of it.Their escapades play out against backdrops
as varied as the Taj Mahal, the banks of the
Ganges, the saffrons of Benaras, the browns of
Kanpur and Lucknow, the whites of Mussoorie, the
tinkling bells of Rishikesh and Hardwar, the skies
of Delhi and all across the vein like network of
the Great Indian railways and highways. Every
mundane reality in every dusty corner of India is
flushed out of its slumber by a splash of “Bunty
aur Babli” excitement in this, the tale of two
dreamers that blaze the sky like comets. But do
not die. Like all good comets they promise to
reappear again. And they do. And how they do all
of that is, seriously, the stuff legends are made
of. |

The bonus attractions in Shaad Ali's Bunty aur Babli are just escalating. First it was the father-son duo of Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan coming together for an item number with the gorgeous Aishwarya Rai for the film - Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai dancing together on the sequinned dance floor for a qawwali in Bunty Aur Babli. The svelte Australian babe Tania Zaetta who hosted the popular AXN show Who Dares Wins and also featured in an episode of Baywatch will feature in this Shaad Ali adventure flick. And NO, she is not roped in for an item number over here. For a change this time we will get to see this foreign actress playing a proper character in the film. She plays a foreigner called Kate in the film and her character is an integral part of the film. Bunty Aur Babli" depicts the adventurous journey of two strangers Bunty (Abhishek) and Babli (Rani), who are lost in a jungle. Amitabh Bachchan plays a cop hunting for these two characters. | | |
