Updated On: 05 September, 2009 08:29 AM IST | | Sarita Tanwar
In a comedy, you can rarely go wrong, and when you do, you go completely wrong. There are no half measures.
What it's about: In a comedy, you can rarely go wrong, andu00a0 when you do, you go completely wrong. There are no half measures. And it's a tough job, especially if you're handling a situational comedy where screenplay is your trump card.

Sadly, there's no left or right in Indrajit Nattoji's Aage Se Right, which comes across more as a tragedy or errors.

The film is about sissy cop Dinkar Waghmare's (Talpade) missing gun. He loses his gun on the first day of duty.

He's scared of telling his superiors, which leads to a series of weird mishaps and misadventures, leading to a grand finale where Dinkar predictably emerges a hero.
What's hot: The screenplay had potential because the tagline is interesting. The director could've created wonders with it. It's an interesting plot that begins in a small village outside the city and takes you to on an adventure through seedy bars, a Bhojpuri film set and into smugglers' dens.

The three parallel tracks (the cop, the terrorist and the lovers) run well alongside and merge well with each other.
u00a0
There are some funny bits, like the attempts of the terrorist Janubhai (Kay Kay Menon) to learn tapori lingo to woo Pearl (Shenaz Treasurywala).

Also Waghmare's mother Kunti (Bharati Achrekar) jumping out of her son's imagination onto the screen at the weirdest of times to haunt her beta ensures a few giggles.
