Darwaza Bandh Rakho
Do you remember when as a kid whenever your parents went out; they never forget to remind you that 'darwaza band rakho'? We are sure that the answer would be in affirmative. Probably the same may have been told to the central protagonist of the film but she didn't take it too seriously! Result? She got kidnapped. So far, so predictable! But how if the very kidnappers forget to take the learning seriously? What if there own doors are not closed and their own kidnapping starts going awry? What follows from hereon is a series of incidents that would certainly keep the audience in splits in those 2 hours in the auditorium! Off course with the doors being closed!!!
Ram Gopal Verma, who has always believed in toying with different ideas with each of his flicks, returns after the failure of unintentionally comic 'Darna Zaroori Hai' with a genuinely created comedy 'Darwaza Bandh Rakho'. Chakravarty, who acted as 'Satya' in the namesake movie and went on to make 'Durga' and an episode of 'Darna Zaroori Hai', is the film's director that tells the story of a young girl and a gang of 4 kidnappers!
Isha [Isha Sharvani] was a young'n'bubbly girl born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Rich, carefree and ever so careless, she considered every moment of life as the one designed for fun, laughter and making merry. So much was one such moment important to her that even kidnapping held no seriousness in her life. For her even this was designed for one purpose - FUN! With her doors open, she was kidnapped by four young and not-so-young men who were amateurish in their attempt and even further amateurish when trying to deal with the events that unfolded. But before getting into their troubles, let us introduce to you their troublesome lives first!
Ajay [Aftab Shivadasani] was a simple man with not-so-simple plan, Inspite of his humble job as a waiter in a cafe, his aim in life was to own it one day. Well, his plans came to standstill as not just his dreams of owning the cafe were shattered, he even failed to hold on to his job as a waiter. And now he was out on the streets. Ditto for Raghu [Chunly Pandey], ever-so-flirtatious and not-so-debonair driver who had the dreams of the same scale as Ajay. Just like Ajay, he too played a long shot in the air. He just not wanted to own the 'gaadi'! He wanted to even own the 'gaadiwaali' and make her his 'gharwaali'. A split second later he was himself out on streets. Just like Ajay!
Third kidnapper in this gang was Goga [Snehal Dhabi]. With no similarity to Mogambo-ka-bhatija 'Crime Master Gogo' [Andaz Apna Apna], Goga was a straight man with straight dreams, unlike Ajay and Raghu. He was content being a 'paanwaala' but that too wasn't destined for him as his shop came crashing down one day with municipality taking over the land where he had his shop set. He had a little dream now - to own a sweet shop. To top it all, he placed himself in the gang as the wisest of all. Where did this leave Abbas [Zakir Hussain] then? A man with a flair for breaking laws, he had nowhere to go after Bollywood suffered from a bad run. Abbas and Bollywood? What was the connection? Well, he was a black marketer who was jobless now since the time movies started flopping left, right and center!
Together Ajay, Raghu, Goga and Abbas thought that in order to achieve their small and big dreams they had to take the route of crime. And the first and (supposedly) easiest step in this direction was to kidnap someone for ransom. It was only later did they realize that this was going to be their toughest assignment ever!
They easily succeeded in kidnapping Isha but what followed from thereon was unprecedented to say the least. First and foremost they had to rush from the scene of crime and enter some other person's place due to things going awry. To make matters worse, they realize that Isha's
