Smitten by the glamor of Mumbai, two friends, Benny and Babloo, land up in distinctly different jobs: Benny as the bellboy of a five-star hotel, and Babloo as a waiter in a ladies' service bar.
Benny believes his job is better than Babloo's and repeatedly ridicules him. Benny's pride fades away as they both realize that, although their jobs may look different viewed from the outside, they're quite similar seen from the inside.
Benny witnesses several criminal activities at the hotel, from drug abuse to political scandals, while Babloo sees the human side of the ladies' bar. In the end, the truth stares them in the face: five-star hotels are the moral juniors to ladies' bars.
Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 2 out of 5, writing, "BENNY AND BABLOO may not be path breaking or innovative as such, but it keeps you hooked in most parts, especially the finale." [2] Renuka Rao of Daily News and Analysis wrote, "All in all, the film is an average attempt at highlighting a well-known social issue. It is not good enough to charm you." [3]
