This Hindi movie is a pretty straightforward slice-of-life story that tries to give a modern look at what it's like to be a single, professional gay man. It dives into how he understands who he is, the chances he missed out on, and the personal choices he’s made along the way. The director used three parallel timelines to tell the story, which honestly didn't make much sense to me. While the core idea was actually pretty interesting, I really feel like this would have worked way better as a short film considering the point it was trying to make. Still, it wasn't a bad watch. The plot centers on Rachit, a city professional, and his friend Shikhar as they hang out for an evening. Rachit is a polished, urban guy, while Shikhar has more of a "small-town" rustic vibe, and you can really see the contrast between them when they talk. As the night goes on, Rachit starts thinking back to some old memories from a long time ago. He remembers being an intern after college in ...
Father Andy Gaylord invites his friend Captain Faggotron because he knows someone called Queen Bitch, an alien from another planet, is hellbent on making Earth homosexual. Through flashback, we are told that Andy and Queen Bitch are ex-lovers but Andy never wanted to accept his homosexuality and they break up. And now Queen is teaming up with his outer-space cohort to turn Earth into a homosexual planet, by staging a staggeringly profane ceremony at the moment the stars align ominously. In next there days, three planets will align and Black Queen needs to masturbate and cum on an alien ring. And that's why Andy asks his friend Captain Faggotron for help, although he is struggling with his own personal issues. And then in flashback again, we are told how Faggotron used to be the straight man, but a chance meet with the client cohort and Queen Bitch made him homosexual. At the cosmic event, the anus of hell opens up and the earth starts to become gay.
Frankly, much of this film makes no sense at all, as one random scene piles onto another one, played to the hilt by hammy actors in outrageously lurid costumes. Dialog is written to include as much vulgar innuendo as humanly possible. And it's difficult to imagine that Queen and Carol's plan could make Berlin any gayer than it's depicted here. The paper-thin premise seems to be an excuse for the director to get his actors to partake in increasingly lewd scenes, an example being Captain Faggotron and Queen Bitch deep-throating hot dogs while the vendor looks on (and gets turned on). Yuck! Things are broad and stroke. The connections between priest and Queen Black or between Captain and Queen Bitch are both oddly timid. Along the way, the film flashes back to reveal origin stories for the central characters, but they are all goofy, as expected. There is a lot of animation thrown in between to connect dots and show us some sort of aliens gay invasion. Overall, a royal mess and completely avoidable. (2/10)
