    Probably one of the top 5 black comedies Indian cinema has ever attempted

    After proving his mettle in the brilliant comedy drama barfi and magical musical drama jagga jasoos , Anurag Basu now ventures in the rarely attempted genre of black comedy in Indian cinema and nails it completely... multi narrative stories are often confusing but this movie has some of the finest editing I've seen in recent times... If you liked Delhi Belly this one's perfect for you

    It's not a movie it's a detoxing process.

    If you are really sick n tired of this pandemic situation, then watch this movie it will work as a medicine. Fantastic work by Raj Kumar rao (The Mithun Style), Pankaj Tirpathi (The kaleen bhaiya) and ofcourse ANURAG BASU. People who are saying this movie is ruining our hindu mythology n all kind of stuffs, go watch Ramayana. When people talk about humor, chemistry, story, I want to ask you Do you really understand all of these words? Passing comments is very easy, but Hats off for making a movie specially working in this situation where no one moving out of their house until it's an emergency. So guys stop writing illogical things, do write what do you feel genuinely.

    Full entertainment.

    Brilliant. It's funny, entertaining and fast paced. All the actors have done a good job. Story is captivating. Can be easily watched more than once.

    Awesome

    You can't resist to finish it one u start watching, the direction, the story line, how small incidents connects one another even though in a childish way but still the crispy enjoyment is there. The movie serves its purpose.

    This movie will explain why Indian movies are always different.

    The movie is outstanding, it will take your heart away. I know why people are hating it so much Firstly, Most of the Indian viewers first watch movies like Judwaa 2, Dabangg 3, then the same people ask why films like Swadesh, Jagga Jasoos etc flopped. Basu's movies are the victims of this, Basu's movies are not so easy to understand, his films hide some messages that you understand after thinking a lot. That is why his films flopped because Indian viewers want item numbers as well as Oscars. Second reason, Most of the Indian viewers love naked actresses dancing, liquor, cars, unrealistic cliche stories, some unrealistic happy ideal families with full of values, mockery of eunuchs on the big screen but if someone says anything about superstition (which pk, omg showed) about God, then they have problems. The movie did not say that God doesn't exist. He said that your actions will decide the end of your life. We don't know whether there is hell and heaven or not, but we should always do our deeds, leave the consequences to God. The movie said that God is there, but don't do business in his name because your actions are the ultimate judge, who'll decide if you're made for heaven or hell.

    One star less because some scenes were confusing.

    • Trivia
      Pankaj Tripathi's character 'Sattu Bhaiya' is seen wearing a ludo-pendant in a chain around his neck! This seems to be a reference to how his character's actions have a ripple effect on all the other players in the various story arcs in the film!

      During the introduction scene of Alok (Aalu), he flips a bottle which lands on another table. If you look closely, you can see that they're both different bottles with different sizes and slightly different shapes.
