Review this movie


They even perform at weddings to make some money. Enter Vinod Khanna, who runs a place called Cave, where dancers perform in a WWF kind of ring and the audience selects a winner. Rishi's gang vanquishes the earlier winner. But there's a return challenge show where the loser must pay up Rs 10 lakh. That's where the plot gets spicy as Rishi borrows the money from a goon (Mahesh Manjrekar). Many other characters are thrown in for good measure including Rishi's sister, who is not allowed to dance, and his girlfriend who has a surprise in store.

Fast Forward comes to life only during the dance sequences. The choreography by Jhalak Dikhla Ja winner Sonia Jaffer Fraser, Seema Desai and Vishnu Deva is both exciting and innovative. And it is the movie's highlight. Dance buffs will enjoy Fast Forward. One's not so sure about others.
