Uunchai

Though being a nepalese and day since its shooting being an anticipated one, though my expectations didn't matched the reality I still loved it as a family drama "ofcourse" dur to its production company.

A beautiful trip to Himalayas to fulfill last dreams of noe from the 'foursome' friends who are together irrespective of what they are involved in.

A simple story with simplicity, magnificient acting and actors.

It deserves to be watched at least once by a nepalese specially and how the really old ones went to the shooting locatiosn to really 'shoot'. Yes, use of VFX is minimum don't expect bramhastra ehre.

A nice family entertainera at last.!!

Film Review Uunchai #sanjuzzreviews #Uunchai #AmitabhBachchan #bomanirani #AnupamKher The plot of this Barjatiya film is fairly simple. Three friends Amit Srivastava ( Amitabh Bacchan), Om ( Anupam Kher) & Javed ( Boman Irani) undertake the arduous trek to Everest Base Camp to honour the final wish of their recently deceased friend Bhupen(Danny).

Salon main ek aisi film aati hai jo dil ko choo jaati hai; Uunchai is one such film. Awesome ensemble cast. Superb dialogues, especially the banter between the 3 friends. Amitabh,Baman & Kher as the protagonists have given fabulous performances. Neena Gupta is a suprise package who really impresses in her small impactful role. Parineeti is wasted in a small role, Sarika too does well.

Cinematography is mashallah, the beautiful, white, snow clad Himalayas are very well captured.

Backstories of each and every character is very well etched out & does not digress from the main narrative.

Music is very good.. "KT Ko" is fantastic and so is "Haan kar De" both sung by Amit Trivedi.

Uunchai will definitely bring tears in ur eyes or at least a lump in ur throat during the beautifully enacted emotional scenes .

Unmissable!!! Watch either on OTT or in theatres where it is now screening!!

4/5 from me for this film .. Adios 🙂!!

*UUNCHAI (2022) -*

Few aged friends take a trek to the Everest Base Camp (EBC-Nepal), to accomplish their friend's last wish. A naive climbing then becomes personal, emotional, and mystical journey as they battle their physical limitations (by being old) and recognize the true meaning of self-determination. Film has a very talented actors army like Amitabh Bachchan, Anupam Kher, Danny, Boman Irani, Parineeti Chopra, Neena Gupta, Sarika and Nafisha Ali. Need not to say that all of them are great and have lifted this Rajshri Production's venture greatly as well.

Barjatyas are known for making large scale family entertainers! And Uunchai is also a family drama which revolves around friendship of senior citizens. Story is all about friends amongst whom one dies and rest all to fulfill his last wish decides to climb EBC. All of them have zeal, potential, firm motive and wish of accomplishment this task, but alongside limitations and difficulties. How they old aged completes this against all odds is the crux of this film.

Film has light comedy, drama, family emotions, friendship stories, sentiments, catchy dialogues, some real mountaineering, and scenic beauty of Everest. Yes! Amit Trivedi's music is outstanding and literally flows with the film. Songs are hummable and likable. Film is long and at times slow so screenplay could have been better here. Through sharp editing film also could have been cut shorted a bit coz it is nearly of 3 hours. But overall, it's a good watch and parents/grandparents would like it for sure. Take your family along and I would like to rate it as 3.5 / 5 (🌟🌟🌟💫).

*What I Liked Most? -* Anupam Kher and his comic-timing throughout.

*By - Niraj Solanki..!*

A magic created by a legendry Director Sooraj Barjatya...a movie without any obscene scenes and violent action and sticking to the pure basics of narrating the story with a low budget of 35 crores with mega starcast.

May be today's generation will not like but they must send their parents to watch this movie because this movie portraying love, togetherness, the strong friendship bond, family values, culture and relationships. Aap samay ke saath chaliye but not on cost of humanities and values.

Relationships are very important, if you love someone or missing someone then Dont do delay in communicating your feelings..love never dies its remains in your heart.. never miss a moment with your loved ones. ...kal rahen na rahen.. background song ..ye jeewan hai..iss jeewan ka yahi hai rang roop..whole film treatment is based on the inner meaning of this song.

It narrates to find of solution balancing the elder younger generation & to listen to each other.

This Film is not about Everest but it teaches us about standing tall & firmly in all circumstances with feet grounded like Everest.

In one frame your eyes are full of tears in next frame you are laughing ..what a wonderful treatment, emotions..life lesson what not.. It's teaches us to convert unpleasant discussions into lighter moments, Life is unpredictable, enjoy each & every moment, Spread happiness all around giving your hundred percent.

Amazing Cinematography by Manoj Khatoi..Camera moves according to the emotions and demand of scene ..simply amazing photography of Himalayan range.. songs are not hit but very soothing and sweet with situations and Nepalese flavour, well composed by Amit Trivedi.. Towering performance by sadi ke mahanayak Amitabh Bacchan, mesmeric support by Boman Irani, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta and Sarika and Pariniti Chopra. Danny was felt till the end.

Several times I have been in Nepal..I am fond of Nepal. After so many years seeing Nepal beauty mesmerized me.

This movie will compels you to watch again.. Lastly I will say Sooraj Barjatya is actual hero.

In one frame all the legends are performing their best..this miracle only *Sooraj Sir* can do.

Agai a masterpiece by Sooraj Barjatya. He proves films can be made with love emotions and life. Full of life movie. Every frame every moment celebrates life and and it's crux. Star cast is amazing. They proved that age is just a number. Cinematography is wonderful. Though the introduction of characters were quite slow but when story runs it gains momentum. Songs are superb. Spacially ketiko. Sarika's come back is wonderful. Anupam kher again proved he is the best. Amitabh Bachchan ji, baoman Irani ji Neena Gupta ji, Danny denzongapa al r best.

I loved it, worth watching the movie. All must go n watch.
