    Cast: Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Mallika Sherawat, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Feroz Khan and Paresh Rawal

    Director: Anees Bazmee

    Now, just in case you'd forgotten what it's like to have someone slowly drill a nail into your head for three long hours, director Anees Bazmee's Welcome checks into the cinemas to remind you. Let me start by telling you I have no problem with comedy. I thought Jab We Met had some sparkling humour, and I even enjoyed bits of Partner to be quite honest.

    But I do have a problem with stupidity, which isn't the same thing as funny in my book. The problem with Welcome is that it's highly idiotic, it's not particularly well-written, and most of all, it's a film that completely disregards one's intelligence.

    Don't give me April Fool jokes that my three-year-old nephew can see through, and really what do you expect to make of a film whose very first scene is a cheap sex joke? Loosely inspired by the Hugh Grant hit Mickey Blue Eyes, Anees Bazmee's latest is a film involving a much-in-love couple, a triumvirate of underworld dons and a gaggle of random family members and side-players.
