The ultimate heist, the one robbery that can catapult strugglers on the brink of survival to millionaires for the rest of their lives. Nothing we haven't seen before. Hriday Shetty's latest release Chaalis Chauraasi doesn't offer anything drastically unconventional. Corrupt cops, petty conmen, the rough-and-tough baddies…we've seen them all. Is it yawn time all over again? Naseeruddin Shah, Atul Kulkarni, Kay Kay Menon and Ravi Kishen have the usual mundane aspirations, such as a fancy home in the sprawling city, a farmhouse on the outskirts, luxurious imported cars and enough money to retire. The goals are clear; it's the modus operandi which needs to be perfected. The foursome, however, doesn't care too much about the details. In a semi-serious manner, they lay out their plans, only to change them a few minutes later. Pankaj Suri (Naseeruddin Shah) is respectfully called 'Sir', but despite his age, he's the brat of this pack. He manages to motivate this motley group (pun intended) into action without dwelling too much on the disastrous consequences. Fake currency, retired English professors who now work as drivers, there seems to be no end to the nonsense and gibberish. Atul Kulkarni sheds his serious and intense persona and becomes Bobby, a glib smooth talker who once wanted to become a singer. A manager, a wheeler-dealer, or a pimp? Same difference. Albert Pinto (Kay Kay Menon) is a car thief suffering from a serious obsessive compulsive disorder. He loves antique Fiats so much he tends to go into a hypnotic trance every time he spots one. The BMWs and Mercs pass through his hands effortlessly, but the Fiats get preferential treatment. <IMG alt="A scene from Chaalis Chauraasi" src="http://im.rediff.com/movies/2012/jan/13chaalis2.jpg <![CDATA[What Mark Wahlberg's Contraband is all about]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/report/what-contraband-is-all-about/20120113.htm http://im.rediff.com/movies/2012/jan/13contraband.jpg <![CDATA[Sameera Reddy: Vettai is typical Lingusamy]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-sameera-reddy-on-vettai/20120113.htm <![CDATA[Review: Arthur Christmas is a delightful watch]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/report/review-arthur-christmas-is-a-delightful-watch/20120113.htm http://im.rediff.com/movies/2012/jan/13ac.jpg <![CDATA['Bodyguard has been styled according to my body language']]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-south-interview-with-venkatesh/20120113.htm <![CDATA['Vettai is not an action film']]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-south-interview-with/20120113.htm <![CDATA[Did Neelam spread rumours of SRK-Priyanka affair?]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-celeb-tweets-through-the-day/20120112.htm <![CDATA[Predicting The 2012 Golden Globe Awards]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-predicting-2012-golden-globe-awards/20120112.htm <![CDATA[Review: Nanban is worth a watch]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/report/south-review-nanban-is-worth-a-watch/20120112.htm http://im.rediff.com/movies/2012/jan/12nanban.jpg <![CDATA[PIX: Pregnant Shilpa Shetty Steps Out For Lohri Party]]> http://www.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-pregnant-shilpa-steps-out-for-lohri-bash/20120112.htm <![CDATA[Vote!
