Thai Massage

Weekend watch: Thai Massage ( Hindi film streaming on Netflix) #sanjuzzreviews #netflixindia #thaimassage #GajrajRao #DivyenduSharma This is a dramedy where a Sanskari babuji type septuagenarian, Gajraj Rao realises that he has erectile dysfunction and might not be able to have sex anymore, especially since he is a widower and is expected to conform to the rules set by conservative society in the small town of Ujjain.

In comes Divyendu Sharma, a stranger, but takes up the old man's cause and makes a secret plan to send him to Thailand for some much needed " BOOM BOOM"🙂. This clandestine trip is discovered 3 yrs later accidently by his children and that's where the fun begins.

A light hearted film which will definitely invoke spontaneous laughter especially due to the great on screen chemistry between the lead actors Gajraj Rao and Divyendu Sharma. Both of them are too good. Rajpal Yadav as well as others in the cast have shown grt comic timing in their small roles to add a lot of humor all throughout.

Most of you might not have caught this film in Nov 2022 when it released in theatres.

Definitely worth a watch on OTT though !!

Going with 3/5 for this one.. Adios 🙂!!

Concept is new but the execution & storytelling is very poor..script is not that good but comedy was very poor..there is very few funny elements in this film..acting wise everyone has done really good job but to be very honest,the kissing part between the lead old actor and that young girl who is a vlogger in this film is not good.my age is only 26 but i can't even appreciate this.. because a 65 years old married man can't kiss a 25years old young girl..if they feel for each other then the director should show this as a father-daughter relationship or just a friendship..because that's not our culture.

The storyline of this movie reminded me of the movie " Good luck to you Leo Grande " which I watched last year in which a 60 plus lady hires a young gigolo to experience orgasm after many long years. Here we have a lonely, naive, confused 70 year old widower ( Gajraj Rao) from an orthodox town Ujjain who is troubled by his depleted libido. He has a problem of erectile dysfunction and is desperately seeking solutions. A clever young guy ( Divyendu Sharma ) takes advantage of the situation feigning sympathy, gets him treated by a local quack and packs him off to Thailand for fulfillment of his carnal desires through the popular "boom boom" process there.

Director Mangesh Hadawale gives a simplistic treatment to the story and the narrative stumbles along in a slow pace. It does get boring at places but recovers soon. A better storyline was required to make it gripping. The comedy scenes don't actually work and Rajpal Yadav in a comic role could not do much to salvage the situation. It is basically a serious movie and Gajraj Rao does well as usual. He faithfully projects the loneliness and confusion of the character of the widower. A number of seniors of that age group may find his bumbling, shuffling and lurching behavior relatable. In a not so well written role Divyendu Sharma is passable as the crafty young man who takes advantage of the simplicity of Gajraj Rao. A Russian actress Alina Zarobina has given a nice performance. There are some attractive visuals of the sights in Thailand and some more similar scenes would have made the movie still better.

*Right to Sex* - just like RTI is the topic, here..!!

We don't expect our senior citizens to have a sex life. That's especially true for people over 60.

Thai Massage tackles all these questions and more. It's the story of a 70 year old widower who has started suffering from erectile dysfunction.

He wants to experience sex one more time before he loses the ability completely. *(Diyya Bujne se pehlle Jor se fadffadata hai 😄)*

gajraj rao & Divyendu sharma both are good and played their own part very-well..!!

It's a clean sex comedy that will definitely make you smile in places...!! 😄 - One time watch.

The graph of the film just goes on dipping after the initial promise. The fabulous character of Gajraj from Baddhai Ho has been picked as it is but here he has nothing sensible to do. The film looks like it was not made as a creative expression but as a pot boiler. The makers have no clue whether they wanted to entertain audience, critics or themselves. Extremely disappointing, by the end I was left high and dry. No message, no storytelling. The so called comedy is stuff for the sick. The film kept on finding new lows. Pretty similar to the writer director who started with a bang with Tingya and the films have kept on going downhill.
