Fugly can't, in all good conscience, be called an actual film -- but it is the most correctly titled mess of all time. There is nothing much to talk about Fugly. It’s a bad movie. And you don’t get deluded for a moment that the movie has Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar in it. They’re just there for a song that isn’t even a part of the movie.

Four carefree friends Dev (Mohit Marwah), Aditya (Arfi Lamba), Devi(Kiara Advani) and Gaurav (Vijendra Singh) do not have the slightest clue that their lives will take a terrible turn once they’re out of college. They are seen taking on the big bad world and dealing with wrong people, unwarranted persons and above all a corrupt cop (Jimmy Shergill).

In one of the key scenes in the film, Jimmy Sheirgill, who plays a brutal cop, does some calculations based on all the charges he wishes to impose over the four youngsters who get caught up in his trap. After arriving at an official figure, he adds VAT over it, hence making it 10 times the figure that results in an astounding figure of over 60 lakhs. Even as the youngsters are shocked, Jimmy gives a 'business as usual' look, hence concluding one of the finest scenes that one has seen in a film belonging to this genre.

Hence, one is exposed to farmhouse parties where lakhs are earned in a matter of a single night, cops create and burn evidences on will, spy cams are accessible for one and all with an eye on porn, rich kids are considered as criminals by default, an attractively dressed girl is automatically considered available, hanging out with boys can actually be just friendship, politician families don't necessarily come for their kins' defence always and ghoonghat clad girls are not actually coy.

We thought this film was a mix of numerous movies specifically Rang De Basanti, Shaitaan, Highway and Fukrey. However, all those movies were 100 times better than FUGLY.

We absolutely have no idea who the stars of the movie are. Vijender Singh is much better in the boxing ring than on silver screen. The rest just don’t make a difference. The only person who actually contributed to the movie is actor Jimmy Shergill.

Director Kabir Sadanand tries being new but fails gloomily. Fugly is one such movie that has utterly nothing to offer. If there’s one good thing the movie can boast about then it’s the music. Some songs are really catchy.

All of this makes Fugly yet another different offering by producers Akshay Kumar and Ashvini Yardi who disobey norms by bringing something unconventional, yet entertaining.

In short, there is a world out there - a real one at that - where there is a lot of fugliness amidst the goodness it has to offer.

Overall, it is an average film without any great entertainment quotient.
