Tutak Tutak Tutiya

Check out this mind blowing Horror Comedy Bollywood Flick. starring Prabhudeva, TamannaahBhatia, & SonuSood. Prabhudeva's comic timing is far better than other comedians,from the starting till the end , acting was awesome, his dialogue delivery with South Indian accent was simply icing on the cake. He was the show steal-er of this movie. Tamannah Bhatia was good in her two way portrait. Sonu Sood was also fine in his character which he portrayed ( a Super Star). Apart from Prabhudeva's acting, other USP of this movie is its pace, which was not at all slow. Nice old Remix-Punjabi songs, makes your head grooving. Other start cast Murli Sharma and Rajeev Thakur were also good in their roles, they worked as a pinch of a salt in a Dish. A complete family entertainment movie of this year. A must watch flick.

Deepika Padukone's iconic ghostly scene from Chennai Express – (Thangabali Kitavaradhe), reminded us that there is scope for decent horror-comedies in Bollywood. This film shares that sentiment and dedicates an entire story to the genre, which is refreshing.

Here, horror leads to comedy as Ruby's spirit randomly jumps in and out of Devi's body, keeping Krishna and the audience on its toes. It's all quite silly but the director's modest approach towards the story works. The repetition of funny scenes robs it of its glory though. As the story progresses, the horror comedy turns into a drama and like its female protagonist, struggles with its multiple-personalities a bit. The end result turns out to be a fairly watchable film that works for its honesty and harmlessness more than its entertainment value.

Boasting of a clean family humour, Vijay doesn't try too hard to please his audience and gets brownie points for keeping things sweet and simple. The movie does not pretend to be smarter than it is and that's a welcome relief. The special effects in a particular scene are impressive as well.

The gorgeous Tamannaah, slips in and out of her two diverse characters Ruby and Devi, effortlessly. She even manages to match her dance steps with the great Prabhu Deva. Though he displays a good comic timing, the latter doesn't have much to do except for acting surprised owing to his wife's situation. Sonu Sood makes an extended cameo and renders a restrained performance. He does justice to his superstar character that is not caricaturish or clichéd.

Despite being a tad underwhelming, Tutak Tutak Tutiya is a fairly enjoyable film that can be watched on a family outing.

the trailer excited me so I decided to watch this movie. no big star cast (in Hindi Tamanna and Prabhu Deva is not big star in Hindi) so no big rush. only half hall was full but when movie started then everyone was laughing. it was just brilliant. No vulgar jokes or scene just simple light comedy. first time I saw Prabhu Deva in a comic role and he did great. Tamanna played her simple girl and a bold actress role with perfection. Sonu Sood did will. A great family movie. some people are saying that it is horror comedy. only taking name of ghost is not horror. some scene could be horror but background music made it comedy. you should go and watch.

A perfect example of what zero expectations can do to a movie- watching experience, this horror comedy is a welcome outing into Bollywood by Tamil director A L Vijay.

Krishna (Prabhu Deva) is a young, working-class Tamil man living in Mumbai, and who is in search of a "modern woman" whom he can court and consequently marry, with the forethought of conceiving children who would then be modern and fluent in English, too. However, his visit to his native place in Tamil Nadu crushes his dreams as he is forcibly married off to Devi (Tamannah), a guileless villager, who does not match any of Krishna's parameters, let alone the modernity. Back in Mumbai, the newly married couple rent an apartment without realizing that it was previously leased by an aspiring model named Ruby who later committed suicide. Krishna is the first to notice changes in his wife who now responds to addresses of not "Devi", but "Ruby"...

Comedy takes care of the first half as it effortlessly ushers the audience in, treating them with enough doses of slapstick, mostly delivered by Deva. The second half slightly takes a somber route, but is still funny, now supported by polished characters played by Sonu Sood and Murali Sharma. The narrative essentially takes time to establish itself between sequences as the story moves forward with good speed, eventually reaching a convincing climax. Moreover, there's no tried-and-tested ingredients here, but are largely made up of variations of what we have seen before in similar films. That makes the film more enjoyable and easy on the mind.

The film explores the theme of aspiring models looking for fame and who are then forced by their own conscience to kill themselves due to the inability to accept failure. "Tutak Tutak Tutiya", although light- hearted, raises an important point about young men and women and their suicidal tendencies. It shows us how it feels to miss out on life.

Deva is good with his acting and dancing chops, and so is Sood as the lover-boy celebrity. Tamannah could deliver as Ruby, but fails to convince as the mild-mannered Devi, shelling out dialogues like postcard stamps. Supporting cast is decent.

All in all, even though the starting few minutes are silly, the film begins to entertain as it moves forward. So, it is better to judge it when it comes on DVD. Or, if you are a fan of any of the actors, book that ticket now. Producer Sood, take a bow!

BOTTOM LINE: A L Vijay's "Tutak Tutak Tutiya" is an enjoyable presentation with a mix of thrills and comedy, best to be consumed with a partner. Ignore the obnoxious title and poster designs and buy tickets for that weekday show.

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YES

One time watchable.acting is super by prabhudeva and Tamana.
