This is a copy of a french movie Dîner de cons, Le (1998). Also known as "The Dinner Game" (English title). Someone says that it has been copied from dinner for schmucks which is absolutely wrong as this released in 2007.
Ranvir Shorey and Vinay Pathak are best friends in real life too, and worked in several films together.
In the beginning of the movie, the first dinner guest is Sharat Kataria, who had also written the dialogues of the film. Also, he is the writer of hit films like Dum Laga Ke Haisha, Fan and Sui Dhaga.
Hollywood later made its own adaptation from the original French film. It was made as "Dinner For Schmucks".
Director/Producer Anurag Kashyap was greatly impressed with Ranvir Shorey's performance while the movie was being edited.
"Bharat Bhushan: Asif, this is Bhushan. Asif Merchant: Bharat, your Dhoni was washed out by the Pakistanis. Bharat Bhushan: Even I'm watching the match, there are a lot of overs left. Asif Merchant: If they couldn't do anything in 43 overs, what can they uproot now? Bharat Bhushan: Have you forgotten about the Multan one-day? So badly we uprooted you, that you are still holding it in your hand. Bharat Bhushan: Get lost! Asif Merchant: You get lost! Bharat Bhushan: You get lost! [Bharat bangs the phone] Anant Ghoshal: What a character, man! Bharat Bhushan: I know. Ranjeet Thadani: I've been tolerating him all evening! You hung up? Bharat Bhushan: I'll call him again. Look, don't worry, we fight all the time but we are best friends. We can die for each other. Ranjeet Thadani: Put the speaker phone on please. Bharat Bhushan: Redial. It is ringing. Ranjeet Thadani: I can hear it. Asif Merchant: Hmmm... Bharat Bhushan: Asif, listen to me carefully... Asif Merchant: Now only 6 overs are left. What has your Bhajji uprooted? Bharat Bhushan: Forget the match. I have some important work. Asif Merchant: On one condition - Say, "Rahul Dravid, down-down. India bye-bye." Bharat Bhushan: Have you lost your goddamn mind? Never ever! Asif Merchant: In that case, go to hell. [Anant & Ranjeet: Please, please say it] Asif Merchant: What happened? Caught in a religious dilemma? Bharat Bhushan: I'm doing this only for you Ranjeet Thadani! - "India down-down, Rahul Dravid bye-bye". Asif Merchant: You actually said it? Is everything okay, buddy?"
