Raghu Romeo

This is a very good comedy movie with a satire on the current trends of Sas- bahu serials in India which have crippled the thinking of many people in the country. All the actors are from theater, so you see some good acting. Vijay Raaz is as good as ever. Maria Goretti is gorgeous and Saddiya Siddiqui looks cute.

The dialogues are well written and they make you laugh.

In all, an honest movie with lot of creative effort form Rajat kapoor as a director.

If you are or if you know some one, addicted to Sas-bahu serials, this is a must see. My rating 10/10

Though cinema ought to be the way it is in Raghu Romeo, it unfortunately isn't for the most. The movie is very lovable. Essentially, it takes a dig at fiction vs reality, and does it with a very mild tone. There's no preaching here.

Vijay Razz is superlative in his role while Sadiya is cute and lovable. Maria is outstanding as both Neeta and Reshma while Saurabh is excellent as always. The tragic end that intersperses a fictional narrative into a real one is remarkable, and the lesson that Raghu learns from that twist takes the movie to a meaningful end.

With no drama and utter realism, this movie is a must watch like any other Rajat Kapoor film. He surely knows to bring out the multidimensional quality even in our Hindi film characters for a relieving change.

i saw this movie 2 years ago at the movie-festival in locarno and i was absolutely overwhelmed! the acting is great, maria goretti is a goddess and the dialogues, written by saurabh shukla, are one of the best dialogues ever written in a comedy!!! (watch out for the scene where raghu is watching his beloved show while his parents are talking to him...).

if you like different movies that don't absolutely follow the unwritten Hollywood-rules like "american beauty", "the royal tennenbaums" or "garden state" you will certainly love this movie.

give it a chance, you might be surprised

congratulations and a big "thank you" to the makers of this great movie.

10/10

This movie is amazing, I mean these kind of movies will stun you. These people are real actors yeah, Vijay Raaz, Saurabh Shukla they are really amazing. Watch this movie and you will want to watch other movies of these actors

Rajat Kapoor tells us the tale of Raghu, a humble waiter (Vijay Raaz)who's in love with Neetaji (the radiant Maria Goretti), a character from a soap opera. It's ironic that I just rewatched 'Nurse Betty' yesterday and the inspiration shows but the similarities pretty much end there as 'Raghu Romeo' remains its own film. Pritam is behind the music and there are a few ripped-off tracks but it's funny to see how that's presented.

Vijay Raaz proves to be one of the funniest actors today. Having witnessed his comic performances in 'Monsoon Wedding', 'Pran Jaaye Par Shaan Na Jaye' and even 'Run' (him being the best thing in that movie). With 'Anwar' and 'Company' he's proving to be quite versatile too. He's the perfect choice for 'Raghu' as his unconventional looks and mannerisms only add to the character's genuineness. Saadiya Siddiqui's Sweety and Maria Goretti's Reshma provide the perfect contrast to Raghu. As Reshma, Goretti is a little hyper but that too proves to be an advantage as it contrasts well with her soap opera character 'Neeta'. It's great to see Siddiqui finally in a full-fledged role of the (unusual) heroine. Saurabh Shukla plays a hit-man who's hilariously in love with Sweety.

Shukla's writing is commendable but there are a few plot holes. I've spotted about one or two but this does not bring down the entertainment value of the film and can be overlooked. I like how Rajat Kapoor tells uncommon stories about common people (e.g. 'Mixed Doubles' and 'Mithya') and as a director he does a pleasant job. This is especially evident in the last scene after an upset Raghu, sitting next to his indifferent mother, watches Neeta on television.
