![]() ![]() In supporting roles, Varun Sharma is funny but nothing great. Acting wise Sonakshi Sinha as Baby does what she could do but the decency in the character was damn too high. The potential was definitely there when you take a content like this but the execution is not enough to make the noise. The battle for her Income, Respect plus her desire to spread the awareness on taboo subject takes the story forward. But the problem starts here that Baby being a Girl and running a Sex Clinic is not acceptable for sophisticated people in society.
