I love this movie. Great work by Bomain Irani. I will recommend this movie to all of my contacts. Being a father to a son and son to a father, i can relate it to my life. The direction is perfect. The emotions are real. The dialogues are perfect. The storyline is commendable. This is an award winner movie. I truly enjoyed every frame of the movie. Guys when in this world where others are after nonsensical topics, suddenly you see this movie. You feel like you got tge food for your soul. Kudos to film maker. The way the whole story is presented is perfect. I cant think of any word other than awesome, perfect, must watch infinity times.
This story revolves around the relationship between a father and his son, who has long parted ways in terms of home and ideology. However, both of them yearn to settle their differences and shine in each other's eyes.
The roles played by Boman Irani and Avinash Tiwary are just superb. They fit the characters very well. Their demeanor helps to portray the differences between this father-son duo. But will they reconcile and be a happy family together?
That's the crux of the movie. Though the story is quite heartwarming, the directorial choices are quite debatable. It starts with a very slow approach, which could have been totally avoidable. Yet, I would recommend this movie to any person who has/had a beef with their parents and hope this will shed some light on their relationship.

Boman Irani debuts as a director with this film, and with good reviews all around, it was inevitable that I wouldn't miss it.
Amay, a young architect with a tumultuous relationship with his father, is forced to stay with him for 48 hours after the sudden death of his mother. With constant bickering and fights at home, along with professional stress, how will things unfold for the father-son duo?
The premise may not seem extraordinary, but it is the screenplay that makes this film special. The strained relationship between father and son keeps the narrative engaging, as both parties are right in their own way. If you're 30+, you may relate to many of the incidents. The film's slow pace works in its favor, allowing you to connect deeply with the characters. Whether it's Amay's boss, girlfriend, or sister, all his relationships feel straight out of reality. However, the monologue by Amay in the office meeting, though impactful, feels cinematic against the otherwise realistic tone of the film.
Avinash Tiwary is perfect in his role-you can't imagine anyone else playing it. Boman Irani literally runs the show with his screen presence and impeccable acting skills. Their chemistry feels natural and works well, but a loophole remains: the film never explicitly mentions why they are estranged. Bandish Bandits fame Shreya Chaudhry is equally good and puts her best foot forward in this role.
I've always adored Boman as an actor, but with this film, he proves he is a class director who should make more movies. The wide shots, especially the use of rain as a backdrop, are a masterstroke. The color grading is another brownie point for the film, adding to its charm.
This is one of the best films of the year. Don't miss this light yet impactful movie-it will stay with you for a long time.

Nice script but the screen play was great
Top notch direction & acting
Casting looks just perfect
A must watch movie.
Locations looked great and realistic The car driving scene was realistic .
Interesting thing was , every closed looks taken looked very much relative and realistic.
No doubt the director did a great job. Hotel scene was made great. Usually overacting happens in this kind of storyline but this case was very fine. Every character ensured that only the required acting is done.
The office room scene was also fine , the boss character did a great job. The casting was great for the boss. Only suggestion was to make the daughter character a bit more detail.
Overall a great picture.

The Mehta Boys" is a cinematic masterpiece that deserves global recognition and awards! This film is an absolute must-watch, and I cannot recommend it enough. It resonated so deeply that I found myself laughing and crying towards the end-a testament to its powerful storytelling.
Boman Irani, you are a genius! The way this film balances emotion, humor, and raw human connections is nothing short of brilliant. Every performance was incredibly moving-from Avinash, Shreya, and Puja to the entire supporting cast. It's so refreshing to see a film that focuses on real, raw talent instead of star kids, bringing us performances that feel authentic, effortless, and deeply impactful.
The writing, the direction, the cinematography-everything about The Mehta Boys makes you feel like you're watching something truly special. It's cinema with heart, the kind of storytelling we desperately need more of.
This isn't just a movie; it's an experience. It makes you reflect on family, relationships, and the emotions we often suppress. It deserves to be taken worldwide because stories like this deserve to be seen and celebrated everywhere.
