Chances made so that they both have to live in same room in flat.
Then what happens tell the movie...
Will their fights become even greater... or will their difference in cultural beliefs ever let them compromise with each other...
Film is an interesting story of cultural clashes between modern and traditional culture. How their journey goes to understand each other. How interesting are their fights. Film also shows the tough life of people come to big city for brighter future. First half shows the different attitude of character and which make them fighting always. Second half of film tries to explore different aspects of these different cultures.
Performance of Vinay Pathak, Neha Dhupia, and others are very good, even Naseeruddin Shah in very small role of less than 4 minutes is very effective. Direction is also very good. Story, script are also keep entertain the viewers.
Good points of film are interesting story and interesting clashes between modern and traditional culture, very good performances of actors, good direction. While bad point can be people might feel Vinay Pathak in repeating similar character with earlier films though character is somewhat different also. Film also lack a usually too filmy turns, fight sequences.
Film will be liked by fan of Vinay Pathak, good romantic comedy and good sarcasm on cultural clashes films.
Reviewer Verdict: Film is watchable film.
