*KUTCH EXPRESS (Gujarati):*

A very strong, unique and meaningful storyline; Class acting and dialogue delivery by Manasi Parekh and Bollywood actress Ratan Pathak; Heart-touching and marvelous dialogues penned by Ram Mori; Soulful yet peppy music by Bollywood composer Sachin-Jigar; Scenic Kutch beauty & backdrops; and delightful cinematography make this film definitely a MUST WATCH. Ratna Pathak and Manasi Parekh in the roles of "Saans/Bahu" respectively steal the show. They both have lifted this whole film and their acting is of top-notch. Both are excellent and have imbibed their roles thoroughly to create an emotional impact on the spectators. Film also has an army of other talented actors like Dharmendra Gohil, Darsheel Safary, Viraff Patel, Heena Varde, Reeva Racch, Bhumika Barot, Denisha Ghumra, Kaushambi Bhatt, etc. And all of them have poured themselves to the film brilliantly. So apt star cast and hence the movie looks brilliant on screen.

Film has comedy, romance, colors, rustic beauty of Kutch, emotions, excellent music, many eye catchy moments, powerful yet culturally intimate dialogs and outstanding music; so it's a complete package of entertainment. Story is all about a family of four consisting Husband, His Mother, Housewife and a Son who mostly stays outside due to the studies. Now husband secretly runs an affair with his charming officemate. His wife and mother come to know about it through the people of village. Both decide to get that man out from this situation and bring back their lost happiness. However, the things go other way and situation worsens. Film also has an interesting and entertaining character of street artist who aids support to the family. Now what will finally happen in this confusion; reveals the film.

Film has high production value, Very well directed, Story is impactfully written, as mentioned above every dialogue is emotive, Songs of the film are also very beautiful and audience would like to hum for sure. Cinematrography is vivid and with that each frame looks so vibrant and colorful. The film is good in every way, still Darsheel Safari (Taare Zameen Par) did not seem to be fitting in the film. The big talks from his small mouth don't really seem effective and conclusive. He looks very small to the role offered and miscasted. That girl (Mamta) having affairs with father and earlier had with son as well doesn't seem a convincing matter. Another thing I found odd was in a well-paced film unexpectedly the nest of a happy and pleasant family gets shattered in the end. Plus, the most culprit man receives no reprimand or rebuke from anybody and remains engrossed in his fun; seems unusual and very strange! Nevertheless, mostly the film proves to be a winner in all cinematic aspects. I have enjoyed it completely and would like to rate it as 4 / 5 (🌟🌟🌟🌟). Go and watch with your family!

*What I Liked Most? -* Manasi Parekh in that tiffin sequence.

*P. S. -* Did I forget to mention about SISOTI GANG? You see their awesomeness in theatres now 😊 Jai Ramapir!

A Story that one will relate and can compare to every other household in your neighbourhood or it can be your own home also ...

Kutch Express begins casually in a ligth hearted way showing how a small town in Kutch the women socialise calling their own small gang as "Sisoti" their own term for the Kittie Party that urban women enjoy ... the difference is that the Sisoti is a private affair not known to their Men.

Slowly the two main Characters of the film Baiji ( Ratna Pathak Shah ) & Monghi ( Manasi Parekh Gohil ) develop and the story shifts inside their home. Baiji is Monghi Mother In Law and they share a beautiful fairty tale like bonding never seen on screen and off screen too ... so it naturally brings a smile on your face. Monghis husband is not happy with Monghi and his having a affair with his colleague and then its a slow rollercoaster ride with himan emotion wave and ending up in tap of fish net ...

Eveything is balanced beautifully... The Commercial & Realistic proposition of the film to entertain and at the same time making you think whether am I also the Rigth Man in my house ?

Direction by Viral Shah is top notch, Cinematography by Dhawallika is Superlative catching amazing views of The unexplored Kutch Music by Sachin Jiger is peppy and heart touching.

Background Score by Gulraj is beautiful.

Dialogues by Ram Mori are earthy , fresh, very relatable and people reaction im theatres prove that.

Now to performances : & the Award goes to Ratna Pathak Shah, Manasi Parekh, debutante Viraff Patel ....They are flawless and magical .The pairing of Ratna Pathak Shah & Manasi Parekh is a Master stroke. Dharmendra Gohil supports wonderfully and is brilliant at it. Darsheel Safary , Manasi Varde are good.

Overall a Movie that needs no language as this could be in any language as Himan Emotions are the same everywhere in any language, just the geographical locations need a change. Here its Kutch, so its gujarati. The movie is with Subtitles in Emglish so its a boon that everyone one enjoy this beautiful piece of Cinema. GO WATCH IT ...

The movie has done great start of Gujarati cinema for year 2023. Movie is entertaining covering all aspects of cinema like emotions, thrill, comedy etc. Great acting by Ratna Pathak Shah and Mansi Parekh Gohil. All artists have delivered best performance. Will wait for kutchh express 2. Mustvwatch movie. Mother in law and daughter in law realations are described very nicely. Woman empowerment is emphasised. Great team work by entire movie team. Music of Sachin Jigar is fantastic. Picturised at nice locations of Kutchh. Overall movie is great entertainer and conveying women empowerment message to society.

Story presented in an amazing way. It's showing the cruel reality of this conventional society very beautifully and in acceptable manner.

In Bollywood, movies showing the real rigidity of male ego has been stopped or been rare after "Sahib Bibi Aur Gulam".

In Gujarat, just last two years back there was Hellaro, most liked movie of Gujarat's culture and developing cruel realities of conventional society..

This is a next movie I would love to rate after Hellaro.

I believe this movtcan be watched by anyone, with anybody.

You can watch this movie with family, with girlfriend, with wife, with friends, anyone.

Good to watch first time in theatre.

Thansk for reading my review.

The movie created high expectations on its trailer but failed to deliver ....

The concept is old and the presentation was very immature and stupid like they have showed sons ex girlfriend is fathers present girlfriend now who is going to accept this..women empowerment was not strongly shown..the art showed was very good ....

Darsheel Manasi and ratnaji were good in their performances ...

As Gujarati film industry is coming up with fresh faces and young content this kind of typical movies fails to deliver other than Gujarat states ...

A lot more sense and maturity was expected....

In this world where people don't support each other, this film best express culture, community and emotions with the same.

Actors specially worked amazingly. Mansi Parekh, Viraf Patel, Darsheel Safari, Ratna Pathak Shah.

Emotion of women in one sided relationship despite of having in it for 22 years. Mansi Parekh has portrayed it beautifully.

Ratna Pathak: Baaji- Best supporter of a daughter in law always wishes to have. Moving forward with generation.

Darsheel safari- best son a mother would always want. Who supports her.

Viraf Patel- art & artist. Best supporter every one would want

Classic Masterpiece.

Effective storytelling and heart touching movie ,the acting and choreography was excellent and love to see the village lifestyle and real concerns were eduction is still not penetrated uniformly in boys and girls.
