Be afraid, very afraid, is what we are told every time Bobby Deol raises his eyebrow and stares us in the face.
What's not: You cringe, chuckle a bit, even try to be patient, but it's really tough bearing a script that seems to be written on a torn housie ticket! There's nothing new that Sivan offers in technique, style or narration.
In fact, he believes going back in time and revisiting the '90s with the corny jokes and bad sexual innuendos (courtesy Nana Patekar).
Kulbhushan Khar-banda as the baujee leads the ham brigade making you wonder why the character actor is taking on such thankless roles (last week's Aloo Chaat?).
Shriya Saran looks more like a detergent selling model than a Punjabi girl. Bobby seems happiest when he's fighting, at least he doesn't have to deliver those awful dialogues!
What to do: Strictly avoidable, Ek should have gone directly to DVD.
