Gayab is all about a loser but with his vulnerable, onscreen, presence Tusshar is definitely not the one.

For this latest RGV comic thriller the real loser turns to be the director, Prawal Raman, who shirks work to the extent that he expanded his 30 minute work in Darna Mana Hai to the full fledge two and a half hour masala movie.

Vishnu Prasad (Tusshar Kapoor) is just a pawn in his repetitive game, who gets a cold shoulder and for that matter leg, arm and everything else from every possile person he knows. His father (Raghuveer Yadav) is not any better. Thier home is Mrs. Joshi's(Rasika Joshi) bastion, who treat them like dirt.

When trumatised by the world, Visnu looks out of his samne wali khidki, not to widen his horizons but there lives JLO oops..Mohini (Antara Mali), an extremely scantily clad girl. But here too, Vishnu is no match to her 'US returned' boyfriend Sameer (Ramman Trikha).

When the two men come face to face, the former burst into tears and heads to a recluse beach where a demigod awaits to fulfill all his prayers.

"Gayab kardo mujhe," he shouts but the omnipotent deity does an overdose and disappears the story and rest of the virtues needed for a good filmmaking along with creating, one more Mr. India. That's is where Prawal start faltering and the film plunges never to recover again.

Tusshar, with his Gayab act, makes a bold statement about acting credentials. No longer he is a Bala Ji entity, who wants everything to 'K'ool. He emotes the failures of his character with a superb ease along with the joy of his newly gained superpower.

Anatara needs to buy the DVD of the film and come up with a sane reply why she opted to make her Mohini act like a bafoon. Despite some nice ditties Amar Mohile adds to Raman's woes by his 'extremely thrilling' background score.

All in all, Tusshar successfully beats Aftab at hi original paranormal act but in Gayab, what is invisible is fultoo entertainment.
