Bheja Fry

This movie is quite different and handled very uniquely. The theme, storyline and everything about this movie is so refreshingly new that you are charmed by these. The entire movie is a laugh riot and the acting by the main character Bharat Bhushan ( Vinay Pathak )is just exhilarating. Others including Rajat kapoor, Milind Soman and Sarika have done very well.

The movie is about the entire stretch of a night and how a man pays for his mischief that he intended to play on others. A very light hearted comedy and very enjoyable.

Then why just 6 stars ? Well reading through some others reviews on this site I find that this movie is a copy of the french movie "Dinner Games" . To verify this I checked on the plot of the original and I found that indeed it is true. This requires that the director should acknowledge this fact in the titles but I don't remember having seen that in the movie titles.

Well apart from this fact ( though a very embarrassing one ) the movie's direction is flawless and the story is very humorous.

Bheja Fry is unlike any comedy film you must have seen in recent past. It has no big names in the cast, you might not have heard about the director either, promotion of the film is a low key affair... No loud comic drama, no banana slips to make you laugh, no double meaning dialogs. But still it easily qualifies for the most hilarious film of the year. It is 100 odd minutes of pure humor. The film surprises you with the unique wit and classic comedy.

You might not be expecting anything from the film and might come out highly satisfied. That is the best thing about the film. This is probably the first time the comic potential of Vinay Pathak has been utilized fully. This is one actor with amazing comic timing. The characters of the film are highly believable and you can actually recall at least one person you know/have met which is similar to each character in the film.

The film boasts of great acting,great situations and a very simple script. Though its an adaptation of a french film, it hardly takes the credit away from any of the actors.

Watch it for sure, because if you've not seen this, you've laughed less this year.

Everything about this film,being a Comedy, is genuinely good. Actors are all great. And Vinay Pathak takes the lead greatly .... Wonderful actor You can compare the characters with your life watching this film.

Bheja Fry is a movie that will irritate you to laugh; perhaps a Sunday evening well spent for me laughing out to the irritant of Bharat Bhushan (Vinay Pathak). This 95 minute movie is enough to entertain you whilst you're at the Movie Hall and should not be pondered beyond that. For those looking for some serious humor, forget it and definitely not for those who always wanted an action flick nor for those who wants those French-Speaking-English-Subtitle Oscar worthy movies.

The movie is about Bharat Bhushan, who was supposedly one of the scapegoats for Ranjeet Thadani's (Rajat Kapoor) Friday IDIOT' Dinner Party. Well, that is what he does, he invite budding talents to dinner on Fridays and let them sing, dance and he enjoys the fun. The table was turned and he had to bear the beyond-control-idiocy of Bharat Bhusan on a particular Friday. The situation is that of trying to make an extreme simpleton an idiot thus ruining the fun when the idiot never realizes the game. On top of that, what if he never gets angry? That is the peak of irritation mount. That's what Ranjeet faces with Bharat!

It was fun to watch Bharat Bhushan right from the moment we saw him in a bus bound for Pune from Mumbai. He was good all along his stay with Rajat at his house on that day, TGIF (Thanks God its Friday). His phone calls – it is ringing to redial are funny even when you know it was coming the next time. You should watch for his phone calls to people that mess up the whole thing and in fact which is the backbone of this movie. I will keep the details of the story line for those willing to enjoy this movie.

I do not know, whether its a copy of a French movie as it is said by other people.

Some people say its bad just because its a copy, but i go against those statements,because copying is not the point, the point is the good movie of French could be understood only by people who knew French but because Sagar Ballary made the movie in Hindi, a language know by many people in India, the movie could be viewed in India, and give the excitement of of the French movie in India. OK we could tell the movie was bad if the acting was bad, but actually the acting was too good.

Seeing the above statement i feel the movie is a 1 time must watch since its an excellent movie and i think it was a worth watching movie since it was a simple good comedy, I do not care whether it was a French copy, I am happy that Sagar Ballary brought the movie to India.
