An angry young man Raam (Rishi Bhutani) who also happens to be a momma's boy is incidentally arrested on charges of murder of his mother (Padmini Kolhapure). Raam chooses to stay mute and ironically the film is titled Bolo Raam with everyone in the cast asking him about the motive of murder. Sub-inspector Khan (Govind Namdeo) who also happens to be Raam’s neighbour declares him maniac but senior inspector Rathi (Om Puri) wants to solve the mystery.

So Raam’s leela unravels in the form of frequent flashbacks which contribute zilch towards solving the suspense but works only towards glorifying his heroic traits which are recklessly redundant to the plot. So the first flashback flashes his frontal 8 pack abs, second his dancing prowess, third his action expertise, fourth his spiritual side, fifth his romancing skills, sixth his bonding with mother, seventh his eccentricity, so on and so forth. Until you almost forget what you were hunting for in the flashbacks.

Perhaps director Rakesh Chaturvedi assumes he has an ace in his hands with the climactic twist but the puzzle is so peripheral to the plot that the film almost changes genre from suspense to social drama. There is absolutely no buildup to the mystery. Rather unnecessary reels are wasted in whacking up a tourist guide (Rajpal Yadav) who is subsequently served with biryani. Also a psychiatrist’s analysis is added only to supplement a special appearance by Naseeruddin Shah.
