Tees Maar Khan Box Office -Royally Screwed
Folks, to merely dismiss Tees Maar Khan as yet another amateurish Bollywood piece of junk would be an egregious blunder.
For Tees Mar Khan is so much worse. Infinitely worse.
Tees Maar Khan (which released in the U.S. today) is so unbearably awful that we wouldn’t in the least be surprised if many of you were to walk out after the Sheila Ki Jawani item number, which comes in the first half-hour or so.
It boggles the mind that our Bollywood bozos would steal a four-decades-old trashy Hollywood film (After the Fox) and then deliver a trashier version of that crap in Tees Maar Khan.

No sooner is he back in India than he does the vanishing act again and quickly signs up with two antique smugglers (the Johry brothers) to retrieve their captured cache that’s being transported to Delhi by the police in a train.
To accomplish the heist of the antiques, Tees Maar Khan pretends to be a film director and cons the people of Dhuilya village and an Oscar-obsessed Bollywood superstar Aatish Kapoor (Akshaye Khanna) into assisting him.
Sloppy Script
But the script is so sloppily written that not for one moment does it rise above the hopelessly amateurish and the disgustingly tawdry.
For a supposed comedy, there’s little that’s funny in Tees Maar Khan because of a hopeless script ‘written’ by a Bollywood cartoon named Shirish Kunder (husband of the film’s director Farah Khan). Continue reading »
