'Dostana' is a time pass film. Here I literally go by the word time pass. If you don't have something very exciting to do, go for this movie, do not plan your day specifically for this!
Hugely hyped for its gay theme, the film seriously have some special moment in the first half. Abhishek Bachchan and John Abhram gives you what you are there for, pure fun, with their funny antics. However your joy fades as soon as the love track begins.
Also unnecessary songs in the later half (as in Kal Ho Naa Ho) get on to your nerves. The romantic scenes between John and Priyanka are not at all romantic, instead it turns out be boring. When Abhisek tries wooing Priyanka, you pray better the gay angle comes back.
Bobby Deol as Priyanka's boss is mechanical (robot) He bores you even more.
Acting wise Priyanka Chopra is natural. She pulls out a decent act of a girl caught between two gay couples. John never acts, but his body does, his expressions are one and the same. Abhisek Bachchan is sheer delight! He carries his attitude well. However he too over does at few places.
Director seemed to have lost focus, whether to concentrate on gay couples, romance, or comedy and lands up giving a boring end!
Only good are the songs and the Miami locations. My favourite is 'Maa Daa laadla'!
So Dost'Ana'- 'Jana' - not worth for only 1 hour fun!
