Oh, Shakti Kapoor, you never cease to disappoint, do you? The actor attended the music launch of Saanwariya decked up in quite the outfit – but man, I thought that chest-hair-on-display fad was a thing of the past?! Looks like someone’s still stuck in the 90s. Anyway, this is the movie that stars Ashmit Patel and Sara Khan in the leads, and the makers are going all-out to try and peg it as a Rajshri (Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hai Kaun) style story. I don’t know about you but I take my Barjatya films very seriously and therefore am immediately suspicious of any comparisons. So I did a little Googling around, found the film’s website, and proceeded to read the synopsis… after which I repeatedly facepalmed and headdesked and facewalled.

Since there’s not much more to say, I’ll let the launch pictures do the talking:
