    A smooth trip to Himalayas!!

    Though being a nepalese and day since its shooting being an anticipated one, though my expectations didn't matched the reality I still loved it as a family drama "ofcourse" dur to its production company.

    A beautiful trip to Himalayas to fulfill last dreams of noe from the 'foursome' friends who are together irrespective of what they are involved in.

    A simple story with simplicity, magnificient acting and actors.

    It deserves to be watched at least once by a nepalese specially and how the really old ones went to the shooting locatiosn to really 'shoot'. Yes, use of VFX is minimum don't expect bramhastra ehre.

    A nice family entertainera at last.!!

    Good film but falls short as must watch

    After a lot of disappointing films given by Bollywood recently, Uunchai is definitely a movie which a good to watch.

    Cinematography and overall pace of the movie is good.

    Acting of all 4 top Amitabh Bachchan, Anupam Kher, Boman Irani and Danny Denzongpa is true to their names.

    I love Amit Trivedi's music but in this movie I find it very loud and not matching with the theme and background of the movie. It is more noisy than touching heart.

    About the script and dialogues - there is a real lack of substance which can make it great.

    The film is trying to cover so many dimensions in given time and that's why has not gone deep in to main theme of friendship.

    On the other side if you don't go with high expectations then this is a good clean movie to watch along with family which is Rajshri Productions hallmark.

    A Modern Classic.

    The story of the film is as clear as in the plot. What drives the film is the journey of the three friends. It's a story of friendship and what the term 'Friendship' truly means. The film will make you laugh and will make you cry. It will make your young ones think about their elders and will make the elders think about their young ones. Have great expectations with Uunchai. It's not a film we see everyday, it's a rare modern classic and will leave you thinking about life for some good few hours after watching it.

    Uunchai is a fine watch and should be among the top cinema choices of your watchlist.

    Unmissable!! emotional film .. with some rocking performances !!

    Film Review Uunchai #sanjuzzreviews #Uunchai #AmitabhBachchan #bomanirani #AnupamKher The plot of this Barjatiya film is fairly simple. Three friends Amit Srivastava ( Amitabh Bacchan), Om ( Anupam Kher) & Javed ( Boman Irani) undertake the arduous trek to Everest Base Camp to honour the final wish of their recently deceased friend Bhupen(Danny).

    Salon main ek aisi film aati hai jo dil ko choo jaati hai; Uunchai is one such film. Awesome ensemble cast. Superb dialogues, especially the banter between the 3 friends. Amitabh,Baman & Kher as the protagonists have given fabulous performances. Neena Gupta is a suprise package who really impresses in her small impactful role. Parineeti is wasted in a small role, Sarika too does well.

    Cinematography is mashallah, the beautiful, white, snow clad Himalayas are very well captured.

    Backstories of each and every character is very well etched out & does not digress from the main narrative.

    Music is very good.. "KT Ko" is fantastic and so is "Haan kar De" both sung by Amit Trivedi.

    Uunchai will definitely bring tears in ur eyes or at least a lump in ur throat during the beautifully enacted emotional scenes .

    Unmissable!!! Watch either on OTT or in theatres where it is now screening!!

    4/5 from me for this film .. Adios 🙂!!

    Seetee to banti hai 😘😘

    Agai a masterpiece by Sooraj Barjatya. He proves films can be made with love emotions and life. Full of life movie. Every frame every moment celebrates life and and it's crux. Star cast is amazing. They proved that age is just a number. Cinematography is wonderful. Though the introduction of characters were quite slow but when story runs it gains momentum. Songs are superb. Spacially ketiko. Sarika's come back is wonderful. Anupam kher again proved he is the best. Amitabh Bachchan ji, baoman Irani ji Neena Gupta ji, Danny denzongapa al r best.

    I loved it, worth watching the movie. All must go n watch.
