Kaminey

Fasten your seat belts folks, and cast that cola aside. You are about to land into the dirty damp world of ‘Kaminey’, populated by bookies, trigger-happy drug mafia, corrupt cops and power-hungry goons with political ambition. In the melee of these kaminey characters the story of Guddu and Charlie (Shahid Kapur), two estranged brothers who have nothing in common, not even their speech defects unfolds.
In this cat and mouse game, the baddies get mixed up between the twins. Who’s Guddu and who’s Charlie? Amid the shootouts and mayhem that follows, the two brothers rediscover love for each other. Don’t go expecting the moon from ‘Kaminey’. It’s a bit violent, a bit funny, a bit emotional film that leaves you entertained but not wiser.

Our take: below Average

Our take: Good
