THUGS OF HINDOSTAN

Recommended. I've just come back from the cinema and I'm still laughing. I didn't recognize Aamir Khan acted as Firangi till the end credits. He looks totally different and acts better too. He's a kinda Jack Sparrow character (and a sailor as well), even the famous "Pirates of the Caribbean" theme gets a smooth makeover in the first dance scene. "You're either great or a scoundrel." "I'm the greatest scoundrel." - Firangi is such a rascal that "even hell's gates won't open for him". You're going to be deceited and it guarantees plenty of twists of action. Set in 1795 and later it's a period adventure comedy Bollywood style. Amitabh Bachchan as a national hero and Katrina Kaif as a... dancer. I'll be looking forward to a sequel.
