| The host family has
Anjan Shrivastava and Farida Jalal as the Dadaji and
Dadiji, with their three sons - Om Puri, Ashok Saraf and
Late Jatin Kanakia. The two bahus are Himani Shivpuri and
Supriya Sabnis and their three kids complete this large
happy family. One
of the grandchildren is Urmila, a simple innocent girl
(Om Puri's daughter) whose mother died in child birth.
Rest of the film is about how Sanjay transforms plain
Jane Urmila into a glam doll. There is an attempt at
genuine good humour and lots of songs too.
Director Sanjay Chhel,
though a hit script writer (Credits include scripts of
'Yes Boss' & 'Rangeela') has failed with the script
in his own debut directorial venture. Which is really sad
because Khoobsurat is an attempt at a clean, family
entertainer but the cliched storyline lets it down badly.
Sanjay Dutt is good in parts, while Urmila doesn't really
have much to do.
