Film: Gulabo Sitabo Cast: Amitabh Bachchan, Ayushmann Khurrana, Vijay Raaz, Brijendra Kala, Shrishti Shrivastava, Farrukh Jafar Director: Shoojit Sircar   Rating: 2.5 star   When you have actors like  Amitabh Bachchan  and  Ayushmann Khurrana  in one frame, one does expect intriguing storytelling. The recently released Gulabo Sitbao on  Amazon Prime Videos  directed  Shoorjit Sicar  written by  Juhi Chaturvedi  has pinned our hopes high but nonetheless, this satire comedy falls flat miserably.    In a nutshell, Amitabh Bachchan as Mirza is the owner Fatima Mahal in Lucknow, while Ayushmann Khurrana as Baankey Sodhi one of the tenants in the haveli. The lead cast is supported by five other families who take the narrative ahead. The two and a half-hour dramedy (comedy plus drama) gives us an essence of Lucknowi culture and the day-to-day issues that the protagonists go through.  What makes you stay through the film is the message that is put across by the makers that it's okay to des
