Frankly, I was expecting Bheja Fry kinda fun. I know, wrong expectation. But then, I saw the movie only when I heard a lot about it - as a must watch. It was fun till the 1st half, then it felt a little too long to to be hooked on to. Anyways, here's the crux...
Bauji (Sanjay Mishra) is an old man living in a joint family in a small house with his brothers family. His daughter is seeing a boy and the family finds this out one day. That day they lock her up in a room and the go to this boy's place to beat him up! Later they do realize that the boy indeed is a decent person, but in the process Bauji makes a crude decision that he will not believe in anything that he has himself not seen or heard!
That pretext calls for some good fun. He gets laughed at, demeaned and even ignored for his theory and logic. He also quits his job at the travel agency citing the reason that the ticket booking orders that he was talking was not right as he would not like to book tickets for places where he himself has not gone. Saurabh Shukla can be seen here for a guest role as Bauji's boss.
Another good scene is when Bauji tries to argue with his brother's son's maths teacher. Discussion on parallel lines meeting at infinity is cute and funny. This teacher later becomes Bauji's follower, among many who later accompany him in all his endeavors!
Bauji takes more extreme steps and even stops talking. The Satya Ki Khooj madness goes to an all new level, altogether.
There are any other incidents that happen later on and the plot gets confusing for me. Down the line it gets dragged and i started longing for the movie to end. I have written this for many other movies too and I wish movies were shorter in duration so that even a good movie is not tagged a star less coz of its length.
Having said that I would also like to tell you that i did not like the ending. But I would sure recommend it as a good one time watch.
