Producer turned debutant director Shailendra Singh has earlier produced some good movies. But when he decided to make his directorial debut with Sunshine Music Tours & Travels he chose a subject of the most popular Sunburn Festival of Goa albeit based on the wafer thin line of a true incident.
As the storyline goes the main protagonist nicknamed Sunburn (debutant Sunny Kaushal) works in a Dhaba in Kashmir along with his dear friend Rajma Romeo (Ashrut Abinan Jain). Now Sunburn’s only dream is to visit the Sunburn Festival in Goa as he is very fond of EDM (Electronic Dance & Music). So Romeo sets up a facebook page, cons a bus company owner and the boys set off on a cross country trip from Kashmir to Goa, covering a distance of 2874 kms, to attend the Sunburn Festival in Goa. On the way they pick up a rag tag bunch of travelers. Which comprises of an elder man in the twilight of his years, a blingy woman with two teenage daughters, a lesbian couple, a blogger and above all two builder types of men, who are topless throughout the movie and finally with a lot of fun and frolic they all reach their destination.
Shailendra Singh has indeed come up with a novel concept of an EDM oriented road trip movie, which also refreshes the memory of India’s first road trip movie namely Bombay To Goa, but he is heavily let down by the writing part (Shailendra Singh – Sehaj K Maini) which is full of double entendre and borders more on promoting their own EDM festival. But the film also throws light on the so called Facebook culture.
Performance wise Sunny Kaushal is impressively natural to the core. Ashrut Abhnan Jain is pretty good in his comic act, while the rest of the cast mostly comprising of debutant actors are good, and help in carrying the film forward.
At the Box Office it prospects are bleak.
