Too much of everything

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Superb and fantastic story. its revealing the dignity of anyone with any look, yet a fine human heart. Superb, loved it very much. Touches heart with emotions. The actress, who is apparently fat gets all the attention and every audience loves her from the heart.Just loved the movie. and i expect, it will change the eyes of the society for perceiving the people in their natural form.

I was expecting to pass some time with this movie. Somewhere between first 5 minutes movies gets interesting for an Indian guy who knows that this kind of situation is very common. They acted in a comical way which, unfortunately, are some real reactions which are faced in Indian society. I do not know why I was smiling throughout this movie. Was it that this movie seems so real, have amazing actors, funny, a sweet love story. There is always a curiosity to know what next will happen, as it seems so real. This movie gets somewhat predictable somewhere near 30 hour before the ending but I was still curious. They didn't take the cliché road and maintained amazing story-line. Although ending was a little cliché but still it was sweet. Watch it if you can, you won't regret it.

In recent times, if there is movie in which Sanjay Mishra has a substantial role, one can easily predict whether that movie is going to be interesting or not. For example, Masaan, Aankhon Dekhi, Jolly LLB etc. were all pretty interesting. Dilwaale, Kick, Boss, Singh Saab etc. were all insipid - well, you know the reasons! 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha' is another wonderful film which has some great acting and equally good story. You don't come across such charming films all too often these days.This movie stands out foremost because of the character of Sandhya - marvellously played by Bhumi Pednekar. Bollywood doesn't reflect Indian women at all. It essentially reflects American led pop-idea of a woman- skinny with prominent cheek-bones and chin. I hope more Sandhya-like characters will be included in future Hindi movies. If Hollywood can give ample opportunities to plus sized actresses like Melissa McCarthy, Rebel Wilson, Gabourey Sidibe, Phyllis Smith etc. Bollywood can surely follow.The story is charming and emotive in a good way. Many reviewers here have remarked that it reflects reality but I'm not quite positive about that. I haven't heard of any wife-lifting competitions in the Hindi-heartland. Let's just say that it blends escapism and realism in a neat way. The plot is situated in 1995 making it a period drama. A decent effort is visible with the movie-set and paraphernalia.On the critical side, there is one lacuna. The dialect of Hindi spoken by the actors is not matching with the geographical location of the plot. This dialect is prevalent in southern and central Uttar Pradesh. "Kachhu nahi hot hai" is a dialect found once you cross Mathura going south. A chaste dialect of Hindi is prevalent in Haridwar where the story is set.Overall the movie is far better than the 'multi-million- star- studded-blockbusters' which Bollywood is so fond of. Thankfully there are no item songs, no fight scenes and no muscle-mongering. A piece heart-warming cinema steeped in Indian ethos.

A nice 'out of crowd' effort by the team. Director kept the film very close to the real life even without worrying about the loss he would be having due to non-commercialization.A story with different theme. Not sure if it was based on some old Hindi movie or any Hollywood movie. Anyway that does not matter if it entertains you.Nice and mature acting by all the actors including the first appearance female lead Bhumi Pednekar. And good light music having a touch of the days when Anu Malik was in form.Overall a good watch for once at least.
