Kaushaljis vs Kaushal

I can't say it's good act by actors . It's an emotions what you delivered . Outstanding story please made more films like this. Really appreciated. We really wants to watch such a realistic films nowadays nob6wants to make this type of films but in reality people have to created so our next generation also know about rishto ki taar hamesha Judi rahe. Loved that phase when a son pamper his dad and heartfelt scene. Partner understand each other feeling. Family aisi to honi chahiye jaha har ladki apna ghar basana chahe jaha khatti mithi nok jok ho or behen bhai ka pyar ho unki takrar ho bas or kya.

A particular family movie with great inputs of emotions from each and every artist depicting the perfect indian middle class. A different story with delucate treatment. Very down to earth and realistic treatment by the director which somehow connects the viewers on a personal wavelength. Sheeba chaddha is an icing on the cake. Her acting is aging like old wine and more you watch her the more you feel absorbed in the character. Other actors are fine and do not disappoint at all. Background music is in perfect sync with the situations and creates a mesmerizing harmony. Do watch this movie with full family for a relaxed moment in today's noisy world.

Kaushalji Vs Kaushal (2025) : Movie Review -

Kaushalji Vs Kaushal explores the theme of two generations fighting over the meaning of love and relationships. The younger generation believes in moving on, while the older one follows the traditional definition of love; however, soon after, things turn in the reverse direction. The young generation is now submitting to the old traditions of "keeping together," while the older generation wants to "move on." Though predictable and unnecessarily dramatic, Kaushalji Vs Kaushal has enough warmth to make you feel cozy for half an hour or so, while the other one and a half hours remain cold enough to be skipped.

Yug (Pavail Gulati) belongs to the younger generation, who are more interested in Wi-Fi connections than family connections. He works as a copywriter for an ad agency and admires his boss's premium lifestyle. He falls in love with Kiara (Isha Talwar), who believes in "true love" and desires to marry into a happy family. A few days ago, Yug had that "happy family," but after his modern lecture on "we move on," his father and mother decided to get separated. Mr. Kaushal (Ashutosh Rana) and Mrs. Kaushal (Sheeba Chaddha) file for divorce after 27 years of marriage, restricting Yug's marriage to Kiara. How will this battle of relationships end?

The film tackles a dated subject, to be frank, and that's why it lacks much novelty. Recently, a Malayalam film "#Home" shed light on the same issue of the younger generation shaming the previous one, but in the end, it's the current generation that is humiliated. Kaushalji Vs Kaushal features some explosive moments between veterans like Ashutosh Sir and Sheeba Ma'am, and it was quite a surprise to me that the film actually put them front and center to lead the comedy. They both share some absolutely chaotic and funny conversations through situational moments that left me giggling, and I even fell on the floor for a moment or two. The film peaks with these two but then falters with some trivial problems of the younger generation. The narrative tries to force itself into the format of this younger generation when there was no need at all. The film looked so good with the husband and wife's issues; why must it circle around and then shift to the son's marriage? Like the judge said, "Usne exam hi nahi diya toh usse result kaise pata hoga?" It was such a basic thought, but the writers disregarded it and spoiled the natural flow with their useless urban issues.

Ashutosh Rana's Qawwali scenes are "over the top," but the rest of the show is a "blockbuster." I haven't seen this man enjoy his screen presence and his character's humor so much in recent times. The same applies to Sheeba Chadha, who was a riot. I could relate to them and every moment of the arguments they shared because I see my own parents fighting with each other like this daily. This is the film's biggest strength. I just wish that the film had continued with this strength because the young brigade, or that portion and their conflicts, appear so silly and lifeless. Pavail's character is so clueless, though he has done a decent job. Isha Talwar is another character who doesn't logically fit into the frame, but she looks absolutely beautiful. Brijendra Kala and Grusha Kapoor were like those two concrete pillars that you can't shake, and even Deeksha Joshi was fairly watchable in her role.

I may have many complaints about the screenplay, but I freely admit that the film had some moments that truly moved me and brought soft tears to my eyes. The cinematography and color grading made it look like an outdated product, as if it were created to be dumped on an OTT platform. The music doesn't support the narrative, even though there was so much scope for it, and the production design is pretty average too. Seema Desai's vision may be dated and old, but some things are best enjoyed in an "old format." "Old is Gold," they say, right? It's true. Kaushalji vs. Kaushal will make you feel that phrase again, but only for a while. I wish this sweet family dish weren't half-baked; it might have turned out to be so delicious.

RATING - 5/10*

After a hiatus a wonderfully directed and acted movie showing the complexity and turbulence of generational gap and silent love in the old and gold generation

Good watch with roots in Kannauj - mice depiction of struggle between new vulnerable gen vs old gold - our parents (there routine fights but unfathomable silent love)

Pretty evident that director knew her canvas and shooting af the locales than set makes it different- my family roots are from kannauj ans i could connect with what o saw and felt real

Ashutosh Rana and Sheeba Chaddha portray their roles with full conviction, their characters rich with quirks and emotions. Their on-screen chemistry and natural banter feel authentic, akin to any real-life parental arguments. Pavail Gulati injects energy into the film, making Yug a relatable character for today's youth.

Review Kaushaljis Vs Kaushal Today, I watched Kaushaljis Vs Kaushal on Jio Hotstar.

A must watch Film by Seema Desai with brilliant performance by Ashutosh Rana & Shiba supported by Pavail Gulati & others. Every artist has given their best.

Director Seema Desai must be credited for handling such a sensitive subject with both humor and emotionally . She skillfully explores the differences between generations, highlighting the contrast between the modern sensibilities of the era and the traditional worldview of parents.

At the centre of the film are Sahil and Sangeeta, played by Ashutosh Rana and Sheeba Chaddha, whose performances as a long-married couple on the verge of separation offer an honest and refreshing look at the emotional realities of relationships as time passes.

Their nuanced portrayals bring out the unspoken grievances and growing isolation that many couples experience in their later years together.

This film is not a typical family drama, this is sensitive heartfelt storytelling of Indian middle class relatable of two generations. Enjoy a good movie.
