OK, maybe it was disappointing after the hype not to see a nipple or something. To call it "not sexy" is misleading. It is hot in the same way that American movies are that try for PG ratings. Full of "sexual situations". Personally, I thought those were done well. Bipasha is a sizzler in my book. They got her number very well. She did a good seduction job on the lawyer, and she had the "tools". After seeing the whole movie, I did finally understand the scene where they first got it on. She seemed to be blowing him off at first, but that was just to challenge his ego. And she was pulling his strings the whole way. What I wonder is how she picked him out of the crowd. Or was she just trolling for the right guy in the club? Testing guys to see if they were the right guy for her plan?

Anyway, don't buy these panning reviews. They are reviewing in light of the movie they HOPED for. The movie the moviemaker planned to make was better than this. American fans get jaded after bare-all sensational movies that we get to see. The crude approach tends to dull the senses needed to appreciate other forms of eroticism.
