My review :Delhi Belly
Aamir Khan productions’ “Delhi Belly” written by Akshat Verma & directed by Abhinay Deo is a laugh riot. Though movie is a unabated funny ride from start to finish , many may get offended by the means used to rake in the laughs.
Many a sequences are downright repulsive while some other are very foul to Indian cinema standards .But the makers have ensured whether you like it or not one can’t come out of the theatre without having their stomach aching after the loads of fun the movie puts through the viewers.
Story is a thread bare one but the treatment is what unique & bit audacious to Indian standards. May be this is the first movie in India of the genre “adult comedy” if one may put this movie into a category .And the movie is rated for adults purely for its language .
Imran Khan is adequate but Vir Das & Kunal Roy Kapoor steal the show in that order. The movie’s most comical of one-liners are reserved to Vir Das who mouths them effortlessly. Vijay Raaz is funny as ever while the ladies Poorna Jagannath & Shenaz Treasurywala are supportive to the story.
Jason West’s cinematography races through the dusty & crowded streets of interior Delhi with elan. Huzefa Lokhandwala has done a crisp job editing the movie giving it a racy feel.
Ram Sampath’s music is already a rage among youngsters with “Bhaag D.K.Bose ” ruling the charts. "I Hate You (Like I Love You)" is another fun song comically picturised on Aamir Khan. His background score is also not that bad considering its his first movie.
On the whole , “Delhi Belly ” is outrageous fun provided one is able go through all those hideous moments on screen.
Bottomline : Comedy , not for the faint hearted...!
3.5 /5
