Khatta Meetha

This movie is very underrated, it is very uncommon for a film in Bollywood to cover so many genres in a one single movie, I don't like mainstream Bollywood movies but this. this movie is perfect. backed up with awesome comedy, satire, action and superb acting by all the actors, this movie is off the level. i don't know why it is rated very low and i feel sorry for the people who don't like this movie and rather watch typical Bollywood crap, akshay kumar, rajpal yadav and several other supporting cast has done very well, this movie depicts the condition of our government offices and workers quite well, it is surprising for a movie in Bollywood to show a serious topic of society with comedy in it.

It's an amazing movie. It is blockbuster hit on TV. You can find this movie on TV at least thrice a month , and there are millions of movies... so you can now understand what i am trying to say.

I don't know why a very few comedies get good ratings in IMDb. I will say 'Khatta Meetha' is too much underrated as this is going with only 5.8/10 rate! What is absent in this movie? This is not a one-time-watch. This is not a mindless comedy. Under a comic stream built by Akshay, Asrani, Rajpal & Johny Lever, there goes a fight for justice of Makrand Deshpandey against the corrupted ministers, politicians to engineers. Really awesome screenplay & dialogues make you stick to the seat & laugh at every word. As the movie proceeds to the end, suspence condenses more. Will Makrand Deshpandey ultimately win over those corrupts or the system will listen to the corrupts. Find answer through the movie. Makrand Deshpandey appears for almost 10 minutes & he rocked. Akshay is as usually brilliant in 'humour', 'satire', 'slapsticks' & a cute small romantism. Rajpal & Johny Lever's combo is really great to see. Asrani entertains every time especially in that 'telephone scene'. Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Manoj Joshi, Tinu Anand, Aruna Irani, Neeraj Vohra & others have done the appropriate acting. Trisha struggles at the 'hindi' that affects much her expressions. Urvashi Sharma does good. Music by Pritam is good for your ears especially 'Sajde kiye hai'. Every thing of the movie is good except the average rating. It deserves more. I expected 7.3 to 7.6 out of 10.

This is an amazing movie that shows what really happens in the Bureaucracy and how this nation is being looted by unholy public private alliance. It has perfect blend of comedy, drama, romance, and hundred percent succeeds in telling us how the honest people have to suffer. Priyadarshan has succeeded to include comedy to not make it a serious plot and hats off to him to get the message through in a light way. I'm at a loss of logic why this movie should not be a hit. In my view this is a world class movie and brilliant acting done by all and of course Akshay has proved he can handle any kind of role thrown at him.

And shame on Indian masses for liking the useless rubbish of srk, salman, and aamir but not this gem of a movie.

The reason why the movie didn't work like other Akshay Kumars flick is because, Priyadarshan called this movie a funny flick. The movie is pretty serious and deals with the corruption in India.

The movie is funny too, the reason why other critics don't get it, is simply because they lack sense of humour.

Anyway, The movie was really well made from the proper contractor look given to Akshay Kumar, who portrays it brilliantly with his comic timing, to Rajpal Yadav's expressions.

The movie has gives a social message as well as entertains you.

The negative part about the movie is that it's too long. It could've been short and simple. The actors are loud too plus Asrani is really annoying at times.

The film is really good.
