Rahul Rawail goes all out this time. His new endeavor touches almost every topic under the sun -- from extra-marital affairs to gay relationships to incest to 'corpse selling'... Most importantly, it mirrors a sad reality: Money is the be-all and end-all.

Buddha Mar Gaya is aimed at the masses, those who swear by nonsensical entertainers. It's not for the faint-hearted. You ought to have a strong stomach to absorb a film like Buddha Mar Gaya since it shocks you at regular intervals. It's not for those with an appetite for meaningful cinema or for critics, who run down masala appealing films since it's fashionable to do so.

The tagline of Buddha Mar Gaya is, 'You will die laughing', and the film remains faithful to this statement at most times. Of course, you don't break into laughter in every scene, but the fact is that you cannot control your laughter on several occasions. Sure, you may find the brand of humor juvenile and a few jokes obscene, especially the Raakhi Sawant track, but the masses will simply love these portions.

Buddha Mar Gaya doesn't demand histrionics as such, but the ones who stand out are Om Puri, Mukesh Tiwari, Mona Ambegaonkar, Bobby Parvez, Jay Soni and Mahabanoo Mody Kotwal.

Anupam Kher, the narrator and also the corpse, is very good. Paresh Rawal deserved better lines and situations. Rakhi Sawantis in top form. Ranveer Shorey is okay. Murli Sharma is efficient. Prem Chopra is perfect.

On the whole, Buddha Mar Gaya has terrific title-value, abundant shock-value and strong entertainment-value as factors going in its favor. At the box-office, this one's for the masses completely!
