Lost boys
The year is 2009. The world has been struck by the financial meltdown. But Nick Mathur and Jerry Patel don't feel a thing in their comfortable pad in London. Nick feels smug with his successful. #desiboyz #akshaykumar #johnabraham #dfmtv #therealfun #deepikapadhukone #akshaykumarfullmovies2019 #hindicomedymovies #dfmtvrobot2 #2.0fullmovie #robot2aksh.

Cast: Akshay Kumar, John Abraham, Deepika Padukone, Chitrangada Singh, Sanjay Dutt
Director: Rohit Dhawan
Desi Boyz stars Akshay Kumar and John Abraham as Jerry and Nick, best friends in London who lose their jobs when recession hits. Broke and desperate, they sign up to be male escorts – because naturally that’s the only job still available during a financial meltdown!
As bird-brained an idea as this may be, at least it promises not to be a prudish affair. But hell, no! Debut director Rohit Dhawan picks an unconventional premise, but doesn’t have the courage to run with it. So our hustler heroes – renamed Rocco and Hunter – might be happy to strip down to their shorts and shake their bon-bons suggestively at bachelorette parties, but bankrupt or not, their ‘Indian values’ are very much in place, hence sex is not on the menu. (Believe it or not, women pay 400 pounds to these guys for playing cards with them and chatting with them through the night!) Also, Jerry and Nick become escorts not because they’re lazy or have too much pride to do menial jobs (both of which are true, by the way), but because one has to raise an orphaned nephew, and the other has a high-maintenance fiancee demanding a fancy wedding. Poor things!
Despite this blatant hypocrisy, Desi Boyz coasts along harmlessly through its first half, with a few clever dialogues thrown in, and some pleasant chemistry between its male leads. Whoever came up with the terrific idea of giving the boys a kind of telepathic connection where they communicate without words, deserves a pat on the back. Alas, it’s an idea that’s abandoned halfway through the film.
Also abandoned at the halfway mark, is any pretense that this was trying to be a different film. Flaming lips allmusic. Post intermission Desi Boyz becomes yet another regular ‘family entertainer’. Nick’s fiancée (Deepika Padukone) breaks up with him after a video of their naughty dance moves goes viral, and child welfare hands over Jerry’s nephew to a foster family. To win back his girl, Nick moves into a caravan that he parks in her driveway and woos her relentlessly; meanwhile Jerry decides to complete college and find a respectable job so he might convince the court that he can be a responsible guardian. Luckily for Jerry, he gets to mix up his studies with fun when he encounters a sexy Economics professor (Chitrangada Singh) who offers to tutor him strip-poker style.

The film’s idea of entertainment is some Namasatey London-style jingoistic patriotism, a smattering of homophobic jokes, some unintentionally comical lectures on love and forgiveness, and a far-too-long climatic courtroom scene that ends on an embarrassingly regressive note.
Desi Boyz borrows scenes from The Full Monty, Back To School, and Fight Club even, but at its heart it’s not very different from Sajid Khan’s similarly unremarkable Heyy Babyy. Akshay Kumar and John Abraham perform earnestly and get a few moments to shine, but the gorgeous Deepika Padukone gets none. The greatest disservice, however, is done to Chitrangada Singh. Clothed in fancy designer togs, buried under pancake, and saddled with a thankless part, the actress is robbed of her smoldering presence, and homogenized into the mould of a typical Bollywood starlet.
Yet, the film isn’t unwatchable. Pritam’s soundtrack has some winning tunes, and the musical numbers are shot deliciously. What fails Desi Boyz in the end is that it’s such a generic, indifferent film. Rohit Dhawan leaves no directorial imprint for a first-time filmmaker, and there’s little in this movie that you haven’t seen before.
I’m going with two out of five for Desi Boyz. Go in with modest expectations and perhaps you won’t come out dissatisfied.

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar says his choice of films is dictated by the market demand and he does not mind playing regular action-comedy roles.Desi Boyz Copy Of Hollywood Movie Times
Last year, the 45-year-old actor dominated the screens with his masala entertainers

Joker, and Khiladi 786.Akshay's previous movies Desi Boyz, Tees Maar Khan, Khatta Meetha and De Dana Dan were also in the comedy genre.
'Such films were running so what should I do! You have to do sometimes what people like. I do feel the need to change but I have to see what the market wants. Whatever the demand is the product has to be the same. It is not my choice,' Akshay said.
The actor seemed miffed to be asked about choosing similar looking roles lately but said he is breaking the mould with Special 26 and his upcoming film Once Upon Ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara! where he is playing a negative role after his 2001 release Ajnabee.
'It felt amazing to take out the gun and keep it on the hero's head. For the first time I got an opportunity to do that. I honestly enjoyed it,' Akshay said.

A sequel to 2010 hit Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, the movie sees Akshay take on the role of Shoaib Khan, previously played by Emraan Hashmi.
There were reports that Shoaib's role is inspired by Dawood Ibrahim but the actor denied any similarity between the real and the reel don.
'The characters are fictitious and it has no relation with any living person. It is a fictions and romantic story set in the backdrop of underworld. The good thing about the film is that it has a hint of dark humour which wasn't there in the first part,' he said.
Akshay revealed that the makers have kept the film's ending open, hinting at a part three to the franchise.
'I think the producers want to make a part three so I run away in the end and don't get beaten up by the hero. They have kept the ending open. I don't know if there are any plans but if it happens I will surely be back.'
His three films in the past have made it to the 100 crore club, which has become the new criteria for a Bollywood hit but Akshay is not worried about the business this time.
'What will the result be? I can't say whether it will be a hit or a flop. But as an artiste you are very proud of some films and this is that one film for me. There are few films which I don't keep in my DVD collection but of OUATIMD I can keep two copies.'
Directed by Milan Luthria and also starring Sonkashi Sinha and Imran Khan, OUTAIMD hits the theaters on August 15.
