Main, Meri Patni... Aur Woh!

In the era of escapist cinema, a film about the trials of a common man is like a whiff of fresh air. The movie largely relies on its simplicity which the audience instantly connects with. All the more if the protagonist is an overbearing and possessive husband it adds a different layer into the story.

Rajpal Yadav:: Seriously nobody else could have reprised this role more effectively. In the early years, perhaps the role could be equated to Amol Palekar or Farooq Sheikh. The way he portrays his low self-esteem is indeed commendable.

Rituparna Sengupta:: She carries herself with so much grace and beauty that you develop an instant liking for her. No wonder the husband becomes protective of this beauty. Pity, she couldn't capitalise on the success of this film and move forward in Bollywood.

Kay Kay:: This powerhouse of talent needs no words to describe his performance. Simply, spot on.

Varun Badola and Vinod Nagpal:: Nice to see TV artists on big frame. Performance-wise, quite adequate.

Special mention about the "Guncha" song by Mohit Chauhan. Very soothing, yet soulful lyrics.

Ideally, this movie could be termed as a ode' to Basu Chatterjee's and Hrishikesh Mukherjee's body of work.

Finally, Chandan Arora deserves a pat on his back. Pity, there has been no significant news in terms of his directorial ventures.

I am usually quite skeptical about the new bollywood movies because there is nothing much except flashing naked bodies, senseless songs, silly dialogs and stale story line in them. However, occasionally Bollywood does churn out some jewels. This is one of them and this one took my heart. The story? Is very simple, I almost knew the ending but I was still urged to watch it all. Why? I don't know why! But what I know is that the movie captures the life of a typical Indian middle-class family and puts it on the screen in the most subtle way. Especially those sensitive moments are portrayed in the most beautiful manner. For example, when Mithilesh (played by Rajpal Yadav) meets his to be wife for the first time, you can feel the tingling sensation within – i.e., the same sensation when you 'saw' your spouse for the first time before marriage. The story is so down-to-earth and close to real-life that you feel 'living' through it.

Highly recommended! Kudos to the people who made it! A sure buy for my DVD collection to support such performances in the future.

The story is based on a very simple premise. The director has done a good job at slowly unfolding the emotional mire that the lead character (played by Rajpal Yadav) goes through. At the outset, it is about the inferior feeling experienced by Rajpal Yadav due to his short stature, however, it can be just as applicable to many of us, just height getting replaced by something else we are too conscious about. Rajpal Yadav has delivered a great performance. Rest of the cast has done a fine job. The later part of the second half could be improved. Overall, well made and thought provoking, not for someone looking for the typical masala movie.

This movie is special, it has nothing like special Effects or Fights, or abroad location songs. But it has one simple thing, and that is SOUL. This movie is so simple made and everyone can compare their own lifes to this movie in a way.

The main characters are so good in their roles that you feel the smoothness in the movie. The first half of the movie is the best, the second half is gets a bit slow pasted, but still good to keep you in the seats and enjoy the movie.

The songs are very good, especially the one when Kay Kay sings at the party, its breath-taking.

There are so many movies where the directors go out and say this is a family movie, just like the whole cast of Salaam Namaste when they shouted out that its a movie for families too..but the ones that have seen it they know how Vulguar the movie was at times. But this movie is a true family movie, and Iam sure your family will enjoy it, mine did for sure..:)

This is a movie that one should definitely watch. Everyone of us try to be simple and nice to the people. However as we interact with people, we start making comparison and living in perception. Most of the time we hurt ourselves only by doing this. The movie revolves around this perception and how one believe leads to another. The script and story are simple and close to reality. A Very Good Movie with many messages.
