Do Dooni Chaar (2010)
Entertaining Middle Class Movie. Makes one proud of a honorable life lived.
Excellent middle class movie. Average teacher lives a honorable life with a wife and 2 smart kids. Does his best in his job every day and helps his students become brilliant engineers and doctors. But teachers job doesn't pay much so faces social status dilemmas in day to day life. Kids and wife love him and have great respect toward him despise their regret with the fact that he cannot bring them luxuries of life that their friends have.
Sensible comedy. Decent action. Relates to day to day life in India in a very proud way.
The movie is about how they overcome day to day events/disappointments/regrets as a result of their social interaction. Rishi kapoor chose an excellent story and role. I associate myself personally with Rishi kapoor and hope to be as strong to resist the life's temptations and live a honorable life. If you cant buy a car, it hurts you that day when somebody points out that fact but you forget it sooner than you think. if you surrender to that temptation and buy a car with undeserved money, you will be less confident and feel the shame for the rest of your life. Its a trade off between 'BigGainNow+LifeLongRegret' vs 'UnhappinesNow+LifeLongPride+RoleModelForYourKids'.
I will not waste any opportunity to show this movie to my family. Should be in my DVD collection.
Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji (2011)
Cute movie. Fun to watch.
Very entertaining movie. Who cares about action. Things come together for excellent comedy between 3 men. Padamsee as June Pinto is very cute. Shruti Hassan is awesome, easy acting, confident, she's gonna make waves soon. Madhur Bandarkar did good job cooking this recipe. Nice songs.
Movie starting with a Divorce situation may be the sentimentally weakest point of the movie from Indian perspective. Also projecting infidelity as an acceptable part of life is no big deal for non-Indian audience as it is dealt delicately but Indian audience may not feel the same. But the movie did not came out cheesy or insulting to women. Could have been a disaster if any of these delicate topics had been mishandled. But the comedy, cuteness, bold dialogs, and brilliant cast selection made the movie stand apart from the hind movie crowd.
