Scanning through the movies available on board,just came across this one and hadn't even heard of the name before. Decided to give it a try choosing over the typical Dabbang 2,Heroine and blah blah. In one word,the movie is excellent.It is of the genres like Phas Gaye re Obama,Tere Bin Laden,Tanu Weds Manu and the rest of, off beat types.But really well made movie. Omi Khurana has done the acting well and the storyline is also good. I like the Character of Chachi,Titu and Dadaji. Harman (Huma Qureshi)has displayed good acting skills as a doctor. It is a family movie with many light hearted scenes which make you laugh and make sad too.Story has several twists and turns and at the end all is well and there's a happy ending.The story has been well written without any gaps.Loved the movie and watched it twice even during my return journey...Superb watch and recommended.

This is a good simple movie after a long time. This movie gives you some gentle comedy rather than masala type comedy. The story is of a boy (Kunal Kapoor) who stole money from his Daarji (Vinod Nagpal) and went abroad. After many years he found himself nowhere and was under pressure of a local gang.He came back to India to beg/borrow/steal money from his family again. His Chacha (Rajendra Sehi) was surprised and doubted him for his return. Daarji's Chicken Khurana was known as the best Chicken but unfortunately Daarji lost his memory and he did't even tell anything about the recipe. Kunal was offered 1 crore for this recipe and this was the only hope for his money and future.Huma Qureshi has given a stellar performance. Kunal Kapoor has given a decent performance but nothing to shout about. Rajendra Sethi as his chacha is outstanding as always. Titu Mama(Rajesh Sharma)is excellent. Other supporting cast has also given their best.Music adds a lot to this movie. Music by Amiit Trivedi is stellar. The theme music of this movie perfectly suits and the background score is also very good. Songs like Kikli Kalerdi adds some good taste to the movie.Yes, it also have some cons but generally, we don't get such type of cinema in Bollywood. This Movie is a must watch for everyone.

The movie has characters which are so accurate and genuine but then the plot has a hint of fiction in it. Had it been set on a non fictitious platform the movie could have pulled out brilliantly. Soundtracks give a good touch to the movie as it is quite slow paced and we do need something to move along. The script again could have done much more had it been tidied up a bit. Thematically its quite accurate as well with the locations. Just the fiction part ruined the perfection of the movie. The acting is good, Kunal Kapoor needs to drop the slow model walk that he does else its fine, Huma Qureshi justifies her role as a Punjaban and has done a good job, Titu mama (Rajesh Sharma) is outstanding, rest of the characters are also good. The comic punches are original, the script is refreshing compared to the run-of-the-mill fast paced comedy drama's. Watch it but don't justify it and you will surely love the Chicken Khurana that stews in the plot.
