Style is a 2001 Bollywood sex comedy directed by N. Chandra. It stars Sharman Joshi and Sahil Khan in main roles. The film managed to do very well at the box office, however it was panned by critics.[1] Due to the surprise success of the film, a sequel titled Xcuse Me was released in 2003, which was also a moderate success at the box office.
Plot
The film revolves round two slap-happy college students, Bantu (Sharman Joshi) and Chantu (Sahil Khan), who stand out in the college for their expertise in ragging and playing pranks, and ability to outfox others.
As their college life nears an end, the duo begin to realize that they need to start getting more serious about their life and career. Realising that they are not cut out for a life of struggle and hard work, Bantu comes up with an idea to trick two rich girls into marrying them so that they can spend their lives comfortably. They then focus their attention on rich teenyboppers Sheena (Riya Sen) and Rani (Shilpi Mudgal) and set about wooing the two girls to win their love.
A mysterious woman named Nikki Malhotra (Tara Deshpande) enters the scene, and pretty soon Chantu and Bantu get embroiled in a murder mystery.
