    Inspirational movie

    Kaam Chalu Hai has been chosen for promotion by IMPPA (Indian Motion Picture Producers' Association) at the Cannes Film Festival 2024. The film was digitally released on 19 April 2024 on ZEE5. Kaam Chalu Hai received mixed response from critics with praise for its poignant portrayal of a father's journey and the important social message it conveys, while some others criticized its uneven pacing, repetitive scenes, and lack of depth in character development and plot progression.

    Indian Express awarded half stars out of 5 stars, called it "static and bland" and wrote "Kaam Chalu Hai strictly remains an issue-based film with largely familiar beats and a narrative filled with plot holes. Angel Rani of Deccan Herald of wrote "Kaam Chalu Hai is a commendable effort that raises awareness about the great Indian civic apathy that claims several lives on the road."

    Movie does what it was supposed to do

    Palak and Palash are some of the loveliest people in the entertainment industry. They have expressed the story in the best possible way. The amount of comedy, seriousness, length of movie, timings of events in the movie seems just perfect.

    The music as expected is of top quality. Especially the songs sung by Palak mucchal. As usual, there is so much truth and honesty in her music.

    Rajpal Yadav goes on to show why he is one of the most sought actor in the industry. A true actor can perform variety of roles. And rajpal yadav pulls off this role with ease too.

    Simple but with a lot of depth. This movie may not give the typical entertainment like other movies and may not get as much publicity. But not all movies are meant for entertainment. So, this movie is a hit in its own way.

    Top class

    Up until this point, Muchhal's film is a montage of shots and songs strung together to depict a happy family. The film's pace is slow and the execution is like a dramatised version of a social service advertisement. Performances up until the big twist are purely cursory, to the point of being caricaturish. The banter between them seems quite artificial. It's only in the second half when the film begins to deliver its message. It's understandable to show the happy family so the audience can relate with them, but the first half is way too animated. Nonetheless, the seriousness of the subject is well documented, as the story progresses and one can relate with just how diabolical and dangerous these potholes can be. They can snuff life out of anyone within seconds or worse still, maim people for life. But the administrative apathy is so rampant that it's frustrating to see why it doesn't lead to serious consequences like falling off of a government.

    Beautiful

    The underlying message of the film is both inspiring and thought-provoking. It prompts audiences to reflect on the broader societal implications of neglected infrastructure and the urgent need for change. By shining a light on this pressing issue, the movie challenges viewers to consider their role in advocating for safer roads and fostering a culture of accountability. Typically, movies dealing with weighty themes like death tend to be emotionally intense, often causing discomfort. However, director Palaash Muchhal's film offers a refreshing take on this genre by striking a delicate balance between profundity and restraint. Rather than resorting to melodrama, it prompts introspection in its viewers.

    Unpaved path of a common man in India - Raghuvir shines

    Between 2013 and 2020, a staggering 20,000 lives were lost due to treacherous potholes on Indian roads, accounting for 5% of all road fatalities. Metro cities averaged around 10,000 potholes each, highlighting the severity of the issue (Ref: Deccan Herald). Amidst this neglect and inefficiency, one individual's tireless efforts stand out as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that even in the face of bureaucratic failure, ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things.

    This movie, based on a true story, tells a straightforward and unfiltered narrative that exposes the deep-rooted bureaucracy in India and serves as a poignant reminder of our collective failures as a society. Raghuvir Yadav's flawless performance is the highlight of the movie, complemented by Giaa Manek's shining performance, and their chemistry adds depth to the unflinching storyline. While uneven pacing and occasional dramatic moments hinder the overall impact, the movie still effectively conveys the power of citizens in making a difference. Positive change is not solely dependent on government action, but can be sparked by individual initiatives! A good watch.
