Director Abhishek Sharma`s most awaited comic caper The Shaukeens` has hit the screens. The movie that stars some of the biggest names in Bollywood is sure to tickle your funny bones. Here are five reasons that make it almost impossible for you to miss out on watching a movie like this.

The ensemble cast

Where else can you watch 5 NSD veterans come together in one movie? Yes, you heard it correct! Director Abhishek Sharma, writer Tigmanshu Dhulia and actors Anupam Kher, Annu Kapoor and Piyush Mishra are all NSD alumni. These seasoned talents together are certain to set the movie screens on fire.

Akshay plays himself

Bollywood`s macho man, Akshay Kumar, shows his wild side. This is the first time the actor will be portraying a real life version of himself. What`s more interesting is that the actor has used his own collection of clothes from his own personal wardrobe.

The music

So the highlight is that Yo Yo Honey Singh has done two songs for this movie. Yes, both Manali Trance and Alcoholic (which are already chart busters by the way) are the rap icons composition. If that`s not enough, here`s more. UK rapper Hard Kaur has also done two songs in this movie. Ishq Kutta Hai` that brings out Akki`s rockstar avatar and Aashiq Mizaaj` which happens to be the title track are both her compositions.

Location

The movie that has been shot partially at Mauritius, boasts of several other foreign locales, which are a highlight of the movie. It is a visual treat for the movie goers.

A star studded cameo

With a bevy of stars doing cameos for this movie, The Shaukeens` surely has one hell of an extended star cast. Right from Abhishek Bachchan, Bebo, Suneil Shetty to Dimple Kapadia - these stars have added to the glamour quotient of the movie.
