Fruit & Nut

Ace comedian Kunal Vijaykar makes his directorial debut with a movie that promises to be as tasty and fun as the chocolate variety from Cadbury's.
Fruit and Nut is about Jolly Maker (Cyrus Broacha) who is nerdy and single, but in search of love, fame and money. He works as an accountant for a corrupt builder Khandar. The guy is prone to accidents and unintentionally creates disasters.
One day, Jolly's beautiful and sexy colleague Monica (Dia Mirza) gets kidnapped. Soon he is a part of a plot by the so-called ex maharaja of Mumbai, who plans to destroy the city.
If you walk in expecting a Bheja Fry out of this, you would walk away disappointed. Fruit and Nut has its moments but it's the writing that fails to do justice to any of the actors - all with brilliant comic timing. It's a missed opportunity of seeing something special onscreen, instead all we get is a set of over the top characters, with weird clothes, strange make up and insanely stupid dialogues.
Cyrus Broacha tries hard to save this with his comic timing, but fails. Dia Mirza is perfect eye candy, without her it's hard to sit through Fruit and Nut. Boman Irani hams. Mahesh Manjrekar is over the top.
Any positives? Yes, the runtime. Its 90 minutes.
To sum up, this is a disaster. Buy yourself a pack of Cadbury's Fruit and Nut instead, it's cheaper and tastier!
