Watch it for intermittent fun and Arshad Warsi's spontaneity. What's even more disappointing is Shankar-Ehsan-Loy's audio track which fails to throw up a single hummable tune. Dia Mirza too has her moments as the feisty girlfriend while Sandhya Mridul ends up mostly wasted as a sidekick. When it comes to performances, it's the Arshad-Boman chemistry that crackles and invests the film with sparkle and wit. It doesn't, and all we are left with are a few sequences of fun, followed by long-drawn drama. We wouldn't ask this question if Hum Tum aur Ghost worked as a pure comedy or maybe as the other `I see dead people film' (read a supernatural thriller like The Sixth Sense). A hard-hitting cop story, Seher still lingers in memory as amongst Arshad's best acts, apart from being a no-nonsense expose of the rail mafia in UP. Now that's an important query, because director Kabeer Kaushik and Arshad Warsi have another film to their credit: Seher. Which brings us to the second question about the relevance of the film. The only ghost-ghost ka dost sequence that actually works is the Boman-Arshad track, wherein a dead Boman wants Arshad to set things right for his ill-treated wife (Asavari Joshi). Again, the mother ghost hunting for her four-year-old son is too soppy and too predictable. Hello! Where did he come from what's his story? They do tell you, but it's too abrupt and makes you wonder why Arshad is weeping his way through a sequence that barely touches you. Case in point: Suddenly, out of the blue, you have a little boy ghost running across crowded streets, urging Arshad to save his dying daddy. While the encounters with the ghosts, headed by Boman Irani, begin in a lighter vein, they suddenly seem to enter touch-feely territory, with Arshad Warsi, the guy who can see dead people, shedding copious tears while bringing together sons and fathers, sons and mothers, husbands and wives. Rarely funny, mostly sentimental, the film seems to waste away its comic potential for some drama that doesn't quite engage.
The first question raises its head because the plot and the tenor of the film ramble too much. Is it a comedy, a love story or a supernatural drama? Does it have a point to make, other than entertain?
