Featured review
"The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination."
Chalo Dilli is a road trip movie, and like all such movies, is centered around two totally unlike strangers who are forced to make a trip together to reach their common destination.A bizarre journey full of adventure, madness and crazy comic moments with the oddest traveling couple ever!! (Lara Dutta travels in airplanes, while Vinay Pathak prefers General Class Rail journey...She smokes Virginia Slims, he chews Gopal Zarda !!)
Through the process in Chalo Dilli, one comes across some real people who teach you some truths of life. Director Shashant Shah has successfully directed a clean comedy (Chalo Dilli), which is not mindless and slapstick.Actors have played their part to perfection with special reference to Vinay Pathak and Lara Dutta.
Though the film is real and hits the right note, there are a few loop holes that comes out clearly. There were a few flat moments in Chalo Dilli, that could have been avoided. Probably, a more crisp and tight writing would have resulted in a more impactive climax.
Over all, Chalo Dilli is an exciting and amusing watch, with terrific moments. If you are looking for a decent light watch, with Indian touch, then Chalo Dilli is something that you can't afford to miss.
