The thinness of the conception gives the actors so little room to maneuver that they turn in uniformly one-note performances.
Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune
Overview

The professor leaves a note that he would return late as he had to attend some urgent work and she shall wait for his arrival. At that time Madhav Rao, a junior lawyer who supervises the event of patent selling arrives at that place. Ridhima is a fun loving unmarried girl. Madhav Rao is a frustrated married guy. The events that take place for a few hours between these two makes up the story.

Top critics, in their words
Rotten
90 punitive minutes of eardrum-dicing gunplay, screeching-metal smashups, and flaccid odd-couple sniping.
Jessica Winter, Village Voice
Rotten
This has the feel of something that was written by committee and it's all been done before.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Rotten
So pleased with its own spoofy conceit it stays in annoyingly self-amused, predictable mode.
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Rotten
It's not so much the generally preposterous premise as it is its sloppy handling that completely unhinges the film.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
