Daddy Cool

Released On 28th Aug 2009

What can happen at a funeral? Even if it's the funeral of Daddy Cool Douglas Lazarus in Goa?
Tears, sad speeches, melancholia... right? Wrong! Not with a roomful of eccentric characters. And not when the wrong body is delivered.
Good son Steven Lazarus (Suniel Shetty), an aspiring writer tries to give his father a decent funeral by delivering a eulogy which includes a description of the rivers of Goa.
Having flown in first class, his younger brother Brian (Ashish Chowdhry) is suave, successful and a much admired writer from Mumbai. He is not ready to share responsibility for his mother, saying he barely has money to support himself and his dogs.
The estate agent Pinto (Vijay Patkar) tries to close a house deal for Nancy (Aarti Chabria), Steven's wife who is trying to get away from her mother-in-law Mrs.Lazarus (Suhasini Mulay), who though just bereaved, lives up to her title admirably.
A knife-wielding suspicious Jenny (Kim Sharma) finds her husband Carlos (Javed Jaffrey) pleading forgiveness from the hot model Ayesha (Sophie Chowdhry). While the model, told to bestow her favours on a man in a black suit, in order to feature in an ad film, finds herself in a room full of potential employers.
A repulsive spit on hands and flick back hair, Roadside Romeo kind of aspiring boyfriend, Jim (Vrajesh Hirjee) thinks that even a funeral is an opportunity to impress Maria.
A doddering old Uncle Murphy (Prem Chopra) in a wheelchair believes in practicing "rapchick" to get the girls. And then enters a blackmailer Andrew (Rajpal Yadav) who has a scandalous secret about the deceased Douglas "Daddy Cool" Lazarus (Sharat Saxena).
So what does happen is complete melange of madness, chaos, and a laugh a minute! So is it a 'fun'eral? Or should we say the fun is real?
