My Choice-A myopic thought

After seeing the video  and most of the comment there are certain points which needs to be discussed, : Point no.1:About video if you see the whole content of video,keeping an eye all the creative aspect like screenplay,direction,script,etc.I would give 3 out of 5 means average as it is not so bad not so good,and I am sure most of the people would agree with this.Although use of celeb like Deepika and the few lines about adultery has made this video a topic of debate.
