Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji is a light hearted film from serious filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar. Before we review about the movie we should admit that there are ample doubts expressed about Madhur's sense of humor and his take on comedy genre.
However, the director surprises everybody with his outstanding comedy.
Starring Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi etc. in the lead roles, Dil To Bacha Hai Jee is a film that deals with real characters and funny incidents in day to day life. Every character in this film is well known or seen somewhere in our life. DTBHJ success key holds in that point. It is a comedy with a different approach. The story is unpredictable especially in the second half. First half is full of lighter moments and sets the right mood for the second. Director Madhur shows why he is different from the bunch in the second half.
We won't reveal any story of Dil To Bacha Hai Jee film in this review as we leave it alone to surprise you. Despite all the plusses this movie had some hiccups in the middle.
Narrative slowed down here and there but picked up at the right moments. Music by Pritam-Ajay-Emraan is not up to the mark. A good soundtrack might have done world of good to this movie. Performances of the lead actors are an asset. There is no match for Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi. Omi Vaidya is in his comfort zone. Shazahn Padamsee, Shruti Haasan and Shradha Das have done justice to their roles.
Overall, it is worthy to watch once. |
