DESI BOYZ

Ster-Kinekor Theatres Gateway is hosting one of this season’s most anticipated releases, the feel-good Bollywood comedy Desi Boyz.

“We are very excited to be bringing Desi Boyz.to Gateway this November, and have no doubt that our loyal Bollywood fans will be captivated from start to finish,” says Ryan Waters of Ster-Kinekor Theatres. “The film has all the elements of a blockbuster, including a stellar cast, hit soundtrack, and all the glam and glitter that makes for a stunning and exceptionally entertaining film.”

Featuring an all-star cast, Desi Boyz is the story of two men forced to do something extremely bizarre which gives them instant gratification but the repercussions threaten to tear them apart, and the aftermath testing everything in their friendship.

Set in 2009, in the middle of a global financial meltdown which forces many to tighten their belts, Nick Mathur (John Abraham) and his friend, Jerry Patel (Akshay Kumar), are unaffected, living it up in Nick’s comfortable London pad. Nick feels smug with his successful investment banking job, with the new bonus in his pocket, and his sexy fiancé Radhika (Deepika Padukone), by his side, while Jerry on the other hand is so used to scraping the bottom of the barrel and living off his best buddy. So much so that recession feels like home.

However, life has a way of pulling the rug from under our feet when we least expect it, so when Nick’s company decides to downsize, and unceremoniously fire him – the future is looking bleak. To make matters worse, Jerry gets informed by Social Services that his nephew Veer will be sent into foster care if Jerry, who is his legal guardian, doesn’t find a meaningful income soon.

Desperate times call for desperate measures and the two come up with an ingenious but outrageous plan.
