Plot: Jeetu (Shahid Kapoor) is a well-meaning entrepreneur whose business ideas have always failed. Because of this, he owes a lot of money to a long list of creditors. He tries to commit suicide by jumping into the ocean to allow his family to collect the life insurance money. But he is pulled up in a fishing net and his new life begins. He plays deaf and dumb when he figures out that the two fishermen who pulled him up want to be paid for helping him; on top of that he's really in a jam because they think he is a millionaire. He meets a rich family with a dumb (cant' speak) girl who is engaged to someone who wants her for her money. The gags and cracks start from there.

Verdict: It's better than Fool N Final by a lot but doesn't come close to Vivah or Jab We Met. The music by Himesh and the music videos make it definitely watchable. Don't miss the deleted song, Shabe Firaq, because it has a really great beat and a cute music video. There was a crazy funny scene in the beginning when Jeetu is in the hospital and Gundya and Bandya are trying to mime places in India. I think a lot of the puns are based on linguistic differences between Hindi and Gujarati, which was hard for me to appreciate.
