Dusvidaniya - Review

Cast: Vinay Pathak, Neha Dhupia, Rajat Kapoor, Ranvir Shorey

Director: Shashant Shah

Rating: ****

The team of Bheja Fry is back and they come up with a simple film which is extraordinary to watch. Vinay Pathak a middle aged man has a habit of writing down "Things to do" list for domestic chores lives a simple middle class life of an accountant in a Mumbai suburb.

A routine check-up with a doctor leaves him stunned. He is diagnosed with a stomach cancer and can live only for 3 months. His inner consience appears before him to question his worthless life of always making lists for others. He decides to make 10 to do things in life which he always wanted.

He puts down his papers at work and teaches his boss a lesson who eats junk food all the time in his cabin . He buys a new car, learns to play guitar, confesses his love for a child hood sweetheart, travels abroad to meet his best friend since school days, patches up with his estranged brother.

The movie is a laugh riot from begining to end and not one bit serious. Interesting scenes are where he meets his childhood sweetheart and confesses his love for her. His dream of travelling abroad and meeting a hooker who befriends him. The dialogues are brilliant and screenplay very engaging.

Vinay Pathak deserves a pat for potraying the character of Amar Kaul. He simply lives the role. Other supporting actors play their parts adquetly.

The movie is for all of us who are living a mechanical life not doing things which we love to do. Its certainly an eye opener. This Vinay Pathak movie is worth the time and money. Please dont miss it, its highly recomended.
