What we have finally is a film that is
kabhi funny,
kabhi uncomfortably squishy and squirmish, decently entertaining all through until it turns floppy and soppy and finally fizzles out faster than Diet Pepsi with a lame end that just makes you wonder: When will mainstream Indian cinema actually
Kome out of the Kloset?

Dostana tries hard to entertain and it succeeds on a few occasions. But overall it's a huge disappointment.
