Jyani, strongly disagree with ya. For me the movie was total entertainer and 'Paisa-Vasool' . Salu Bhai rocks with his Dharmernder inspired persona and unique dialog delivery with full of Jatitude. I throughly enjoyed the movie.
A simple advice, if you going to watch the movie with a mindset that it'll be a gud drama, sensible, satire based movie then you are mistaken. It's all original Bollywood masala movie that will refreshen and unwind you. Certainly better than SRK, Shaid Crap. I simply luved Dabang !!
My take 4/5 !!
Cheers
