Chutiyam Sulphate

So the plan was to form a huuuge gang, make a zazzy entry to a janta theatre and then "be at our rowdiest best" as the movie totally deserved it.

Only five of us turned up for the movie, it was a decent theatre and there were much more rowdy people than the five of us.However, the movie was almost as spectacular and interesting as we imagined it to be.

Ishqiya: Starring Nasseruddin Shah, Arshad Warsi and Vidya Balan

The dialect is interesting. Super pure Hindi with burst of "bhojpuri". It coins various interesting gaalis and words, the biggest and best of which is Chutiyam Sulphate (Others: Sutli Bomb, Desi Tamancha) The movie has been shot at some interesting locations of UP and the main part is based in Gorakhpur. The overall casting of the movie is awesome. 10/10 to the casting director!

If I have to distribute prizes for acting, then I guess there would be a tie amongst Naseer, Arshad n Vidya for the second prize! They all outperform each other. Vidya Balan has never looked more gorgeous before and her characters is wonderfully layered and very interesting. Arshad Warsi is a fire-cracker, fun and frolic. My personal favourite, ofcourse, is Naseer. I think it would be really stupid to even state that he has acted brilliantly. As that is a truth universally acknowledged now. He is just sooooo cute in the movie. My heart completely goes out to him when Vidya "cheats" on him with Arshad. He plays the "hotel heartbreak" part with complete elan. I love him.

So now coming to the first prize. Nandu is the clear contender for it, according to my judging system. He just brought extra mega watts of electricity to the screen with his barely 10 minutes performance. Brilliant character, brilliant actor!

The ending is slightly disappointing! Just leaves you wanting for more crackle!

Watch it!
