Elated over reviews, Indra Kumar told PTI, “My films right from Beta to Dil to Ishq and Masti and Dhamaal have not got good reviews. Today people say Beta is a cult film but the review then was not good, similar was the case with Dil. I don’t think I will ever get good reviews for my films. In my case it is not just about commercial comedy films but the other ones too haven’t been liked by the critics. There is fault in my stars.”

The success of Total Dhamaal, which hit screens on February 22, has added another feather in the cap of director Indra Kumar, who has delivered a string of hits in his career including Dil, Beta, Ishq, Masti, Dhamaal and Grand Masti. Indra Kumar has established comedy as his strong suit.

The film's plot revolves around 10 people who risk their lives for a jackpot worth Rs 50 crore, and the starcast includes Madhuri Dixit, Anil Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh, Boman Irani, Javed Jaffrey, Arshad Warsi and Sanjay Mishra in key roles.
