Daddy Cool

'Daddy Cool' is borrowed from Hollywood's 'Death at a Funeral', and does not seem to do any justice to the Hindi version .The film manages to hold one's attention only in those parts. Actually, the best thing about this movie is the manner in which the screenplay is handled. It’s a series of events and gags, all delivered with a punch. However the film's humor is not exactly of a very high quality, but that is the same with most Hindi film comedies.
The film centers around the funeral of Sharat Saxena, where crowd gathers and the action begins. They are members of his family and consist of his sons, nephews, nieces, siblings and his widow. Into this solemn family gathering arrives a stranger, played by Rajpal Yadav, who drops a bomb when he claims that and he and the dead were lovers. There are a number of subplots in the movie, one which involves the son, played by Suniel Shetty, a struggling writer saddled with a suspicious wife; his niece whose boyfriend (Aftab Shivdasani), accidently consumes some drugs and starts hallucinating and lands up on the roof top in his underpants. Then there is Javed Jaffrey's character, who is saddled with a paralysed uncle (Prem Chopra). There are puns on popular TV shows and cricketers and the male characters in the movie seem to relish in stripping down to their underpants. Of course! This dysfunctional family manages to settle their differences and the curtains go down on a happy family.
Of the actors, Rajpal Yadav, Suniel Shetty and Javed Jaffery have given a sincere performances. All the other actors utterly wasted.
The film is a half baked effort.
Don’t waste your money on this one
