Chhalaang review :
In a significant departure from his serious cinema, director Hansal Mehta's Chhalaang is a light hearted rom com with a dash of 'khel- kood' drama thrown in. Written by Luv Ranjan, the plot, especially the second half, is quite predictable but still makes for a satisfactory festive weekend watch with family. Provided you keep your expectations low.
Of the cast, Rajkummar Rao is earnest as ever in the lead role. Nushrat Bharucha resembles Deepa Sahi a lot but isn't able to match her in acting skills. The supporting cast comprising Saurabh Shukla, Satish Kaushik and Ila Arun are sincere.
Not great nor too bad a film, Chhalaang is better than Ludo and Laxmii - the other two OTT releases this Diwali. Atleast, it doesn't spoil your mood!!
