The plot travels from Mumbai to Dharamshala and Cape Town but director Kunal Deshmukh retains firm control. Pakistani actor Humaima presents a graceful Zia, her role relatively slender but including chest-thumping numbers like 'Mere hothon ke namak-pare', which will have your inner tapori tapping her feet. And Emraan convinces too, Raja both swaggering and vulnerable, a hero who smiles shyly, then kisses on the mouth (although pecks on the cheek can get more passionate than the demure caresses here).

Paresh Rawal stands out as Yogi, short-tempered, foul-mouthed and shrewd, a malicious mentor - "Kheenche hue kaan se mila hua gyaan hamesha yaad rehta hai" - wincing as he mentions "a very sweet boy", the fine actor displaying the flair of an old lion that eats bottles of rum. With its twisting story, good-looking frames and zingy acting, Raja Natwarlal keeps you entertained.
