Carry on Jatta

A great stepping stone for Punjabi Movie Industry. With Carry On Jatta Punjabi Industry will prove that we can now handle situational comedies as well and that we have something that neither Bollywood nor Hollywood has. I'm talking about one-on-one comedy talent. Read on…

Carry On Jatta has the kind of one-on-one comedy which I have never seen before in any other Punjabi or Hindi Movie. The kind of wit battles they have are very unique. While in other movies you get to see one single pair performing this type of comedy (The Trip and The Odd Couple for example), CARRY ON JATTA has multiple comedy artists witting each other in multiple scenes. Here are some of the one-on-one combos in CARRY ON JATTA: Bhalla vs Ghuggi, Bhalla vs. Binnu, Bhalla Vs. Gippy, Binnu vs Ghuggi, Ghuggi vs Gippy, BN Sharma vs. Ghuggi, Ghuggi Vs. Binnu etc. The dialogs are mostly improvised and you can make out the brilliant performances of these proved comedians. This alone is a hardcore factor for anyone to watch this film. Every single one of these scenes is a masterpiece. I have never seen so much comedy talent at one single place before.

There might be one objection coming from the audience, that being that the film tends to get slow at times. For example the beginning of the movie might seem slow for most part and many might object that the climax is terribly dragged. But after you have seen the movie, you can easily deduce that this happens because the comic part is very fast. When the comedy starts and situations are built, the film moves at a very fast pace and you laugh continuously for minutes at length. Due to these much paced scenes, the rest of the movie seems quite slow.

The climax of the movie is a very well crafted ploy, but it is stretched. The whole idea of such a brilliant chase is mind blowing. The whole theater was literally jumping of out their seats with laughter. I have never seen so much craziness in the theater. But it gets too long. You keep laughing and laughing and laughing and it doesn't end. Extreme laughter for a long duration and that's my complaint. It's really hard to laugh that long and If it was a bit short, it would have been perfect.

Acting wise everyone is awesome. Not a single complaint there. Even the stock characters played their part well, be it the Sarpach and his son or even the Motta Naukar.

Gippy Grewal has acted well and you can observe him giving his 200% to his character. Some of his scenes are hilarious, especially his visual comedy in the scene where he goes to Khushboo Grewal thinking of her as his wife. Gippy and Ghuggi had a great chemistry as well and their scenes at the "Bhatha" are brilliant. Ghuggi and his shy gestures are at full swing and some of his dialogs will make you laugh forever. However the casting of Khushboo against Ghuggi didn't seem fit. They made an odd pair. I wonder how it would have turned out if they had exchanged Binnu Dhillon's role with Gurpreet Ghuggi's. :D

The most awesome performance comes from Jaswinder Bhalla and his slapstick comedy. JUST PLAIN BRILLIANT. A much deserved role and act on his part. Binnu supported him well and two of them made a great team. Binnu has done a major comic role here and the scene of "Ghoddi" are genius.

BN Sharma did some really good comedy, especially at the climax it was just pushing me out of my seat with laughter. He really deserves to play a bigger role now. Another sufficient act is done by Karamjot Anmol. He has a small role, but as always he wins your heart. Rana Ranbir has a very brief role, but his act this time is very timely and very suggestive. His play with his father's name is very funny.

Mahi Gill did her part well, but it will come as a surprise that the film is not devoted to her solely. The film does pure justice to the comic element by concentrating on one on one comedy and makes full use of the talent of Jaswinder Bhalla, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Binnu Dhillon, BN Sharma and Karamjit Anmol.

I also want to appreciate the cinematography of the movie. Considering that the 90% of the film has been shot at single location and most of that is in interior, the camera work doesn't bore you. Every scene has a fresh appeal and a lot of credit goes to lighting as well.

CARRY ON JATTA is a new type of comedy for Punjabi movie Industry. This type of film has never been made before in Punjab and Smeep Kang has captured it well. It's not easy to manage a film like this but it has been done like a pro. Lots of appreciations for the director.

In the end I would say it's a great movie and great follow up after the success of Jatt & Juliet. The film will be successful for sure and will reassure the trust of audience into Punjabi Movies. Oh what a wonderful time for Punjabi Cinema! Two awesome movies one after another and CARRY ON JATTA introduced a new sub-genre of comedy movies.

Carry On Gippy and Carry on Smeep Kang…. you keep carrying on Punjabi Cinema forward… and Punjabiportal will keep carrying on you :D

It was sheer fun. Purely made for Punjabi comedy loving audience.

If you are one who loves sarcastic, funny and taunting dialogs then CARRY ON JATTA will not let you move away once you start watching it.

Although there are excess songs in the movie but waiting for the song to end is worth it. Sudden delivery of dialogs cover the lapses in story of the movie which appears to be non-realistic and has been experimented in many movies already.

Its been a couple of days since I watched the movie first time and I am definitely going to watch it again this weekend (skipping the songs with fast forward:-) )

One of the Best comedy movie I've ever seen.

Spectacular performances given by Guggi, Bhalla, Binu & Gippy(still needs to improve his acting.).

Awesome dialog's was given to Bhalla(9/10), Guggi(9/10) & Binu(8/10)...they have executed very well.

As i'm Fan of BN Sharma, so i'm quite a upset his role..as it was too small...could have been more dialog's were given to him that will be the icing on cake...

Mix all these elements together with classic comic timing. Many thanks to director Smeep Kang ("Chakk De Phatte") to make a very VERY funny movie!

Must Watch ..if you are a Punjabi!!!!

This is a type of comedy movie which you can watch more than 20 times and each time you will laugh. Each and every comedian in this movie has give his best And director has done a really great job by putting all the pubjabi comedian on a single platform and come up with a best ever pubjabi comedy movie.

I think confusion created in the story of movie is soul of humor made by the movie.

A big thumbs up following who contributed for this movie: - Smeep Kang (Director) - Gurpreet Ghuggi - Mahie Gill - Jaswinder Bhalla - Binnu Dhillon - B.N. Sharma

Sumeep Kang directed one film before this (Chakk de Phatte) and has done three more since. But 'Carry on Jatta' remains, by far, his best work to date. Witty dialogues, great comic timing from a cast of Kang regulars, and a story line that retains its silliness till the end makes for a couple of hours of good laughter. In his later films (Lucky di Unlucky Story, Bhaji in Problem, Double di Trouble) Kang allowed the screeching and mayhem to get somewhat out of hand, but this remains the gold standard for the mistaken identities plots that Kang seems to specialise in. If he tops this one in the future, that will be one heck of a funny film....
