Okay, so no matter how bad or good this movie may be....I really didn't get some stuff(some of it may be categorized in the stuff that the director didn't think of!).

1. Why does Pooja lead Jimmy into a robbery that would obviously make them run away from Bhaiyyaji when her real aim was killing Bhaiyyaji in the first place?

2. Where was the opening shot located? A lake beside a highway running through an arid desert?

3.NOT FOR THE GUYS....but was Kareena Kapoor's flab visible in shots of her side profile sometimes (obviously shot before she lost all that weight)?

4. How come a call center cum English teacher have such an extravagant house?

5. NOT FOR THE GUYS, AGAIN...Who else thought that the wetting of Kareena in the climax was very random?

6. The Hollywood director had no song his movie but for some reason had the costumes and choreographer ready. Btw, did he also not have cameras or lighting equipment to shoot the movie either?!?!

Lemme no if u guys can come up with suitable alibis!!!!!

That is the joy of this movie...it makes you want to kill yourself!!!!

Haha, it's pointless to try and make sense of this movie. I'd advise you to just shove it at the back of your mind and pray that you forget all about it soon .

What, me worry?

nothing in the fil makes sense

i saw such a film long by by RGv called daud, urmila and sanjay dutt

didnt make a ounce of sense...

also dhoom 2 is a orcar winner compared this

this makes krrish's action look like the matrix! (krrish wasnt bad but...)

This is YOUR LIFE and it is ending one minute at a time!

1. Why does Pooja lead Jimmy into a robbery that would obviously make them run away from Bhaiyyaji when her real aim was killing Bhaiyyaji in the first place?

She had no intention of sharing it with Jimmy. She was using him, and her plan was to just get away. She did not expect Lakhan to spare Jimmy's life, who was the only person that knew where she was planning to go -- to commit her father's remains.

2. Where was the opening shot located? A lake beside a highway running through an arid desert?

I believe the lake was in Ladakh and the desert was rajasthan (yes, same scene).

3.NOT FOR THE GUYS....but was Kareena Kapoor's flab visible in shots of her side profile sometimes (obviously shot before she lost all that weight)?

Not for guys? really? Anyway that wasnt flab, it's just loose skin that has not yet from the drastic weight loss.

4. How come a call center cum English teacher have such an extravagant house?

Two possibilities. 1. Renting is very popular with call center employees. 2. Ancestral property cannot be ruled out.

5. NOT FOR THE GUYS, AGAIN...Who else thought that the wetting of Kareena in the climax was very random?

Again, really? Not for the guys? The final fight scene made no sense and IMO that is how it was planned - to not make a lot of sense but to pack as much activity and different cliches as possible.
You noticed her "wet-ness" and not the jet ski? I thought it would be easier to notice the complete oddity of there being a working jet ski in what was essentially an arms and drugs factory that was nowhere near the shore.

6. The Hollywood director had no song his movie but for some reason had the costumes and choreographer ready. Btw, did he also not have cameras or lighting equipment to shoot the movie either?!?! [] [] []

I had dozed off during this song! I have no idea. Maybe he was making an english 'Tashan' ('Fashion?') and planned to just pick up local talent and shoot with a 'Customs confiscated' digicam
