Plot

Criminals Hazari (Sanjay Mishra) and Murari (Rajpal Yadav) rob the Police Commissioner's home, and Chetta Singh (Vijay Raaz) steal the car belonging to the Commissioner's wife, Kusum (Rati Agnihotri). Meanwhile, AD (Aftab Shivdasani) elopes with Shreya (Priyanka Kothari), the niece of Police Sub-Inspector Pralay Pratap Singh (Om Puri). With each group is on the run for different reasons, they all end up in a vehicle stolen from crime boss Durjan Singh/Black Cobra (Gulshan Grover). In the vehicle is a suitcase filled with Durjan's loot.

On the run from both gangsters and police, they group disguises themselves using fake police uniforms, and arrives in Madhavgarh village just in time to stop Loha Singh (Manoj Joshi) from committing a crime. Believing them to be real law officials, the town's residents host a congratulatory feast in their honor. The group settles in comfortably among their new-found friends, but the Black Cobra tracks them down and plots their capture and death.

Cast

Production

It was announced February 2011 that Anand Raj Anand would be composing songs for the film.[3] By March 2011 principle filming had commenced.[4] In April 2011, it was released that actress Shweta Tiwari would have a lead role in the film, that she would replace Mallika Sherawat in singing some songs for the film, and that Sherawat would until be in the film, but as a dancer and not a singer.[5] One of Tiwari's song pieces was shot a scene solo with the other actors not present, but the others were added to the scene in post-production.[6]

Reception

Critical response

The film received mixed response from critics. Mid-Day noted that "with a line-up of seasoned character actors known for their comic timings", the film could have been a "laugh ride", writing that the filmmaker's "felt their mere presence was enough to prop the film" allowing them to work with a "meandering script" that jumped "from one character to another" in a manner "bound to test the audience's patience". They also chided the inane dialogues and referred to the film as "balderdash", and a "no-brainer... ...made purely for the 'aam janata' of the hinterland".[1]

IndiaGlitz noted that through consideration of cast of established comic actors, there were certain "set expectations" for the film, in that viewers would not expect "a classic in the making" and would appreciate surrendering "to the antics of a dozen odd comic players on the screen." They also noted that the entire first half of the film is spent establishing its characters and that the second half "is an unabashed copy of Sholay with a little bit of Tees Maar Khan added as well." They concluded that "despite very low expectations" the film itself "turns out to be a barely passable affair".[2]

Glamsham noted that with the film's multiple comedic actors and special songs it "clearly aims to be a complete masala film." They also noted that with "a plethora of actors who are known to tickle your funny bone, one would have at least expected a few laughs" from the film, but that it instead "turns out to be a tedious watch and a test of your patience." They wrote that the plot was unoriginal, the treatment was poor and the film's climax was both predictable and "totally uninspiring." They concluded that "Anand Raj Anand's music is passable. Johny Lall's cinematography is unimpressive. Pranav Dhiwar's editing is tacky."[7]

Box office

Bin Bulaye Baraati had an average opening commercially, and collected a poor gross of 65 million in its opening weekend. Facing competition with the film Ready, Always Kabhi Kabhi and Double Dhamaal seems to be the official reason to why the film failed to do well at the box office. Its total gross was 130 million worldwide, and was declared a Disaster grosser worldwide by Box office India.
