To me, this movie is perfection.
The Worst Film Ever
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Pretty good movie, the acting was also very good. All the confusion keeps the movie interesting. Loved irfan khan like always.
This movie is a fine piece of art. Story is a perfect blend of humor, sadness, and realities of modern life. Acting of Irfan Khan, as usual, is superb. Divya Dutta, even though plays a side role, still manages to impress by her acting. Other major actors like Kirti, Anuja, Gajraj, Pradhuman and Arunaday have also given brilliant performance.The movie is not rushed and proper pauses builds up the interest and shows creativity of the Director. Ending is quite fulfilling as well.
When it comes to true sarcasm, Irrfan khan is a very big name. and lots of movies goes by the name of such casting.Really tried to watch the movie till end(two attempts) but, 1 hrs and 10 mins of cheap time pass script
From the reviews that I had seen, the movie was apparently good but not great. So my expectations weren't that high for the film and I was just looking forward to a fun film. But it turned out to be even better than what I thought!Irrfan as Dev is a weird but smart guy who lives in his own world and has quite a boring life with fixed routines and peculiar habits. When he catches his wife Reena (Kirti Kulhari) with her boyfriend Ranjit (Arunoday), he decides to blackmail them, not knowing what it was going to lead to.The movie tries to take the story to its full potential while striving to keep it from getting too complicated, which it succeeds in. The story-telling is good and the movie employs a lot of symbolism to convey some aspects of the story.The dark humour is done well and the movie has some outstanding moments, most of them including Irrfan who easily steals the show. This guy seems to do full justice to every role that he picks up and this is no exception. There is no 'hero' in this movie, but you would be rooting for Dev for sure. The entire supporting cast does its job well including Anand played by Pradhuman Singh who in fact is also the writer for dialogues in the movie. The film could have been shortened a bit while removing the song as well- my only two major complains with the film. Abhinay Deo, the director of Delhi Belly has given us a great film which is definitely worth watching and enjoying. A rare, good dark comedy from Bollywood that should not be missed.
