Just like any Aamir Khan film or Production these days, once again he is back with a brand new film Delhi Belly, which roughly translates to the gastronomical delight, the Diarrhea. And he has once again managed to turn heads and get the new-generation go crazzy after the release of the film's anthem of sorts by now Bhaag Bhaag, DK Bose bhaag. DK Bose is becoming almost a metaphor for college going guys.
The other songs has also been peppy and the new-generation has almost gone crazy with discos buzzing the Nakkadwaley disco, Udharwaley, khisko, Switty tera pyar chaida and Jaa chudail again and again.
Delhi Belly is directed by Abhinay Deo, and stars Aamir's nephew, Imran Khan, Kunal Roy Kapoor, Poorna Jagannathan, Vir Das, Shenaz Treasurywala. The film contains obscene language and content.
Delhi Belly is an ensemble piece with three flat-mates and buddies Tashi (Imran Khan), Arup (Vir Das) and Nitin (Kunaal Roy Kapur) are partners in crime with Tashi set to get married in a month but still unsure of his choice of fiancé with two almost wacky women in his life -- his rich fiancée Sonia (Shenaz Treasury) and a free-spirited colleague Menaka (Poorna Jagannath).
Arun can't make up his mind whom he wants to kill first his ex-girlfriend or his stupid, annoying boss whose idea of creativity is sketching a smiling banana, who wants him to make cartoon bananas seem 'seven percent less happy'. And Nitin is about to discover that eating delicious tandoori chicken off a street vendor is going to give him the worst case of Delhi Belly he's ever known.
There's a series of coincidences and accidental exchanges. A bag containing some very expensive diamonds gets mixed up with another carrying a stool sample. Three regular blokes, living the regular life except for one small detail - they are on the hit list of one of the world's deadliest crime syndicates.
When Vijay Raaz’s smuggler gets on their back while attempting to track down his precious loot, it’s a case of running for their lives. Will they be able to get away before the shit hits the roof and it comes crashing down? Delhi Belly is surely going to be the meanest comedy you're ever likely to see.
Offering platefuls of defecation, fornication and masturbation jokes, and plenty of on screen smoking, swearing and sexual innuendo, Delhi Belly is a fresh, funny and full on affair. Its going to be a 90 minute roller coaster ride sans any interval and which will leave you craving for more at the end of the show. It has an ending unlike any typical bollywood movie and leaving all the situations in an un-answered state, perhaps because a sequel of Delhi Belly would be in the works after the first one's massive success.
Delhi Belly is a slick, madly crazy production that is mostly funny, although the humour will more likely appeal to the 20-something and perhaps 30-something. The direction is pleasant, the soundtrack is good and we do not get bored.
I had a great time with this unpretentious little film. Guaranteed laughter! Imran is pretty good, his co-actors too and Poorna Jagannathan has a little something special (unusual look for an Indian perhaps) that makes her special and likeable.
Laughed out loud throughout the film. Those who expect a Bollywood-type Indian film will be disappointed, because here it is about modern and real India and not the dreamlike universe as we are used to seeing on screens. On the other hand, all those who want a good film and have a good time, they will be served.
NB: Delhi Belly is by no way a family film and you should steer clear of watching it with your parents, relatives and children due to some very bold real-life intimate scenes and use of 'cuss' words being natural to the course of the movie.
