"Sapno ke saath do baat hoti hai -- ya toh pure hote hai, ya toot jaate hai," says Anil Kapoor to his daughter in the film. Unfortunately, the latter half of the philosophy holds true for Fanney Khan. You'd be dumbstruck at the unnecessarily complicated mess that the hero finds himself in, merely to serve the purpose of an over-imagined plot. Debutant director Atul Manjrekar's film is an official remake of Belgian satire, Everybody's Famous!(2000). While the original was nominated at the Oscars, the remake doesn't even come close.
