He has written this script about Indu Verma, a rape victim protagonist and wants to make a realistic film on it . Suraj Pandey (Rajpal Yadav) is a struggling actor doing bit roles in T.V. serials, who is Amar's only connection in Bollywood. Amar Joshi starts his struggle to make his film by meeting different type of producers who have their own take on amar's story. After many failed attempts He finally bumps into Monty Chadda (Rakesh Bedi) a P.R. Publicity man who sees good potential in Amar and decides to produce his film. Amar & Monty take help of star secretary Gupta ji (Akhil Mishra) to convince Mohini (Udita Goswami) & her starry mother Mummy ji (Neena Gupta) who agrees to do the film.

So a veteran silver jubilee writer Mr. Baig (Om Puri) is brought on board. Once in, Mr. Baig takes over the reins of the film from Amar and changes it into a totally different film all together.
The film is an upcoming film director’s journey inside the dreamy world of bollywood, where is the reality of the largest film industry of the world. Films like GUDDI, OM SHANTI OM, LUCK BY CHANCE, MAIN MADHURI DIXIT BANNA CHAHTI HOON and THE DIRTY PICTURE have tremendous recall value even today. But in this film writer-director Rajnish Raj Thakur attempts to reveal the murky frivolities with Bollywood’s under world connection. He tooks a look at the film industry from the point of view of a director, who has potential to be the director. Director want to make a realistic film but circumstances makes him upset. The film start just like documentary and reminds film history, shows the journey of films with black –n-white film, silent film and talkie film. The second half is better than first half. The film ridicules every formula in filmmaking from sexy item numbers to rain dance songs. It emphasizes how a picture can start as a pure plot but is often muddled with an overkill of external elements like action, emotion, sex, romance, family drama, foreign locations. Suniel Shetty and Rajpal Yadav are pulling the film. A good satire on the erratic functioning of Bollywood as an industry. Suniel Shetty’s struggle rings true and however shabby the film, it does vaguely depict the madness behind the method. The action hero Shayan Munshi, wants to do romance but the romantic guy Shawar Ali, wants the girl in an action-heavy scene. What the girl wants is nobody's concern. It's a male-dominated industry with the women acting as mere subjects of a fetish or in exploitative sex scenes. Shayan Munshi-Shawar Ali and Neena Gupta’s track is just likes stardom effects on film making. Rakesh Bedi takes his hand up and pulls his ears. Razzak Khan, who plays a C-grade film maker’s role, takes his hand down and rubs his hand on the pant’s Zip. This view is too much porn. Writer-director isn't sensibly able to pull off a spoof nor does he have the sensitivity for a smart satire. Rather the film resorts to almost every element that it spoofs thereby making a mockery of itself. While it mercifully steers away from being a slapstick, the loud and hysterical acts cause much harm. Musically, the film is average. Aarif Sheikh’s editing is sharp. The cinematography is according to script and direction.
The performances of the actors Suniel Shetty and Rajpal Yadav are in the first rate. Suniel Shetty enacts his role with sincerity with Rajpal Yadav. Om Puri, Neena Gupta, Rakesh Bedi and Deepak Shirke leave a mark. Udita Goswami and Mummait Khan have no scope to do, while Shyan Munshi and Shawar Ali are are tolerable. Razzak Khan is irritating. Kurush Deboo, Avtar Gill, Deepak Qazir, Mukesh Ahuja, Gopi Desai, Raja Khan, Suresh Menon and Dinesh Hingoo are okay in their acting. Technical and production values are fair. The film’s publicity is good.
At the Box office, MERE DOST PICTURE ABHI BAKI HAI, catches the audiences attention! But fail to get good collection.
UTV MOTION
PICTURES & BHANDARKAR ENTERTAINMENT’S “HEROINE”, IS AN UPCOMING MOVIE
DIRECTED, CO-WRITTEN AND CO-PRODUCED BY . REVOLING AROUND THE
LIFE OF A ONCE SUCCESSFUL FILM ACTRESS, MAHI ARORA, WHOSE CAREER IS ON THE
DECLINE, THE FILM FEATURES KAREENA KAPOORAS THE PROTAGONIST ALONG WITH ARJUN
RAMPAL AND RANDEEP HOODA.
A typical
Punjabi girl with an different attitude Tanaya Malhotra (Kainaz Motivala), as arts
graduate from Chandigarh, who is looking for excitement in her career and one
day when her friend dares her to consider becoming a chauffeur since its
‘different’ and daring and unassuming, the three adjectives bring a glint in
her eye and she jumps at the offer. After a personal interview with the Dadaji
(Prem Chopra), she’s hired at a salary of Rs 50,000/ per month + perks on a
6-month contract. Hence
she becomes Dadaji’s grandson Arjun Kapoor's chauffeur. Arjun Kapoor is a fiery young
construction magnate. He has a penchant for firing drivers and she has a
proclivity for quitting jobs until fate — and an unassuming bet — throws them
into the deep end and they have to stick out together for a stipulated period
of 6 months! But Tanya manages and completes six months as a driver. When she
lefts the job, Arjun feells that he is in love with her and both meet for a
long living life. 
As an writer, producer and
director Vickrant Mahajan is also playing main lead as Arjun Kapoor in this film
and he is confused in his job. The entire film revolves around, a woman Tanya
is doing a man's job and dealing with the verbal sexual harassment that follows
women stepping out of conventional roles. The challenging role played by Kainaz Motivala, leaves a
message to women that is everything is possible for the women in this male- intensive society. Otherwise, 93 minutes film is boring. This is a forgetful film
laced with simple jokes in dialogues that passes a little laugh. Specially,
second half the film is good, when Manoj Pahwa takes entry. When Arjun becomes
driver for two days on a bit and turns Tanya’s uncle-aunty at Delhi. Manoj Pahwa is in his brilliant
Punjabi-isms. The dialogue that is women
are involved in 37.58% lesser accidents compared to men, is also wrong.
Musically the film is very poor. A unique content has raped badly in the
script.
