    Outrageously funny movie ever made for Indian audience!

    KHICHADI - Hindi movie (2010) - DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE IF YOU ARE A HEART PATIENT.

    Thanks God I am Alive.. I could have died.. Died LAUGHING...

    First time in my life I had to pause the movie frequently to control my laughter. I assure, even if someone gets a heart attack watching this movie he'd laugh on his way to hospital until doc gives him anesthesia! But then he will remember the hospital sequence from the movie and he'd surely die!

    Outrageously funny movie ever made for Indian audience. Character that can kill you is called Praful. ..

    "Mein hun praful.. praful hu mein.." ROFLMFAO!!  It starts with an intro story in which God visits the maddest family in the world to give 'Akkal ke laddu' but returns back helplessly after being accused 'Pata nahi kisney tumhe Bhagwaan banaya!'

    There on laughter just doesn't leave you. Its very few times in your life you just cant help yourself laughing and try too hard but it just gets doubled. This movie is one of those. Theater equivalent experience of brilliant performances!

    Watch it :)

    OMG the BEST comedy movie

    This movie does not have the famour actors and is FAR THE B3ST COMEDY MOVIE EVER!!!!!

    Promise you if you understand hindi well, this is the movie you should be watching. The dialogues are the best! You dont even realise when the movie is over... way too entertaining.

    A shining comedy that celebrates its madness; hilarious is an understatement.

    Aatish Kapadia's Khichdi: The Movie is based on the popular TV series directed by Kapadia himself. I have not seen the series, but the movie is fantastic. Centring around the crazy Parekh family, it is one of the maddest and funniest Indian films I've seen in recent years. It is terribly mad, but it is terribly entertaining. It is mindless, senseless, brainless, over-the-top, insane and ludicrous, but it's just one movie that hooks the audience from the very first moment and for two hours keeps them laughing non-stop. The viewers do not have to think too much but they will certainly find themselves rolling on the floor on numerous occasions. Well, that's at least what happened to me. One thing is sure: Khichdi is silly, but it actually celebrates its silliness and thus manages to create one truly unforgettable laugh riot.

    Aatish Kapadia both writes and directs this feature, and he does a good job of it. The movie is also very well cast, with every actor understanding the film's outrageously comic mood and acting accordingly. Supriya Pathak leads the film as the dumb Hansa with a terrific performance that is downright hilarious. Her screen presence is the strongest in the film; when she's on-screen, no one else exists, when she is not, you badly want her to reappear. Rajeev Mehta, Nimisha Vakharia, Jamnadas Majethia and Anang Desai play their roles excellently. What I liked about the film is the fact that it is not an unintentional comedy, it's a well-scripted picture which knows how it wants to work. To sum it up, Khichdi is an outstanding no-brainer and for me it is also quite addictive. I already want to watch it again.

    It's a laugh riot. A true repeat value movie.

    The characters are heart and soul of this movie.

    All make you laugh till you fall from your sit, be it Hansa, jayshree, bapuji, praful, himanshu, and all supporting characters. Each character has their own distinctive style which creates a situation that leads to fun filled scenes. Simple situational comedy that starts with laugh and ends with laugh.

    Atish kapadia and JD majethiya made a superb tv series based on characters of which this movie is based. A top class writing by Kapadia and team.

    A complete family movie which all can enjoy repeatedly. I hope to see a newer version of the same in future also.

    A Madcap laugh riot

    Confession: I am not a fan of "Khichdi" TV series, but the movie certainly had me in splits. Mindless comedy, slapstick comedy, no brainers comedy - "Khichdi" has it all. It actually goes to set a benchmark how a no-brainer should be made. Are you listening who promote their stale comedy with "Leave your brains at home" (and money with us?).

     Supriya Pathak: A scene-stealer. Her performance and dialogue delivery is second to none.

     Anang Desai: Next to Supriya, he is the best.

     Rajeev Mehta:: Strong screen-presence to the extent the "Hansaaaa...." will be etched in your head.

     Himanshu Seth:: Not up to the mark.

     Kirti Kulhari:: Was a glorified miss-goody-two-shoes.

     Satish Shah:: Excellent portrayal, though I thought the entire segment was more of a stocking filler.

     Deven Bhojani: I wish he had more than the miss and blink appearance.

    Cameo by Farah Khan goes to show she loves the "Khichdi" TV series. Finally endorsed by Fox... way to go!!!

    The plot is wafer-thin but the gags and one-liners keep you on the roll. Certainly a good one-time watch..... and "Leave your brains at home...." ROFL!

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Jayshree, are you bringing tea or should I order from outside ?

      Jayshree Parekh: [Irritated] Ohh God, I am on my way. Here. And Babuji, today you'll get breakfast.

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Why's that ?

      Jayshree Parekh: Well, the beggar who usually comes up in the morning didn't turn up today.

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: This tea is a bit odd, isn't it ?

      Jayshree Parekh: [Delighted] You felt it Babuji ?

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Yes. What have you mixed ?

      Jayshree Parekh: Pesticide obviously.

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: [Shocked] What ! Why ?

      Jayshree Parekh: That cameleon who roams around in our kitchen accidentally fell into the kettle. I asked Praful Bhaiya to take care of it. And you know Praful Bhaiya.

      Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: That donkey Praful. I get the feeling I am going blind.

      Jayshree Parekh: Please ensure nothing happens to you today atleast. We don't have a maid who can assist me.

      [Upon hearing the door bell]

      Jayshree Parekh: I guess it's that beggar.

      [Receiving flashlight upon opening the door]

      Jayshree Parekh: Hey, switch off those lights. Who're you ?

      Buddhidev: [Complying] I am Eshwar. Buddhidev. Lord of wisdom. Would you like some sweets of intelligence ?

      Jayshree Parekh: [Irritated further] Damn, I thought it was that beggar again.

      [Looking at Satish Shah's chariot]

      Jayshree Parekh: Ohh great, I should head to the market.

      [to the charotier]

      Jayshree Parekh: Saarthi Kumar, take me over to Kandivali.

      Buddhidev: [In sarcasm] Careful, there's traffic over there.
