New Delhi: Director Samir Tewari’s comic caper ‘Mr Joe B Carvalho’ is being touted as a comedy of errors which erupts from the confusion of mistaken identity between a namesake detective and the villain played by Javed Jaffrey. Shakti Kapoor’s presence is meant to add a comic edge to the film. The film’s leading lady is Soha Ali Khan who is playing a ‘Dabanggi’ cop ala Salman Khan.
The trailer is full of comic moments that will leave you asking for more. Arshad Warsi’s screen name, Joe Bhi Carvalho, itself has a comic undertone to it. The name Joe B Carvalho could be read as ‘Jo Bhi Karvalo’ in Hindi language which translates to ‘make me do anything’. Rising on this hidden meaning, there promo features a funny sequence in which Arshad’s character heroically introduces himself to the baddies. The bad man asks “
Kaun hai be tu? (Who are you?).” To which Arshad replies, “Joe B Carvalho (Jo Bhi Karvalo – Make me do anything).” The bad man dismissively answers back, “
Humein kuch nahi karvana (We don’t want to get anything done).” Embarrassed at the reply, Arshad clarifies his name by saying, “Detective Joe B Carvalho.”
Take a look at the trailer and tell us if you would root for the film.
