DELHI BELLY - Nikhil

Overall Review: "Gross! but a lot of Fun!"

* This is what you get when you turn Guy Ritchie Indian and give him an upset stomach! A nicely inter-twined set of stories with a lot of humour thrown in, some of it not so 'sophisticated'. Beware, you might not be able to finish the popcorn and pepsi you are so used to gulping every time!
* Watch out for some real vulgar/dirty/cheap dialogues and sequences - but thats what adds such real-life feel to the whole movie and the kick to the humour. No friend calls another 'kuttey', 'f**ker' is more likely the word! (One's opinion over his friend's car - "this is what you get when a donkey f**ks an autorickshaw")
* Great characterization and performances - could definitely identify with Vir Das as the tormented artist (His boss over his illustration - "make this banana about 7% less happy"). Kunal Roy Kapur and Vijay Raaz are hilarious.
* Aamir's irreverent item number at the end is the cherry on top, don't miss it for anything!
* Can't believe this is the same director who made 'Game' (2011 - Abhishek Bachchan), Aamir definitely seems to be the differentiator :)

DELHI BELLY - Ashim













DELHI BELLY is not the run-of-the-mill Hindi comedies that you see every second weekend. It is packed with rude humor and the dialogues and events in the film shock you. The humor is situational and skillfully woven in the script. It is the cheekiest and the raunchiest Hindi flick till date and has loads of lurid content. For the first time in Hindi Cinema, the characters speak the language of the youth today. I believe it is the witty dialogues (cuss and swear words included) and the toilet humor that’d make it go down as a cult film.

Vir Das is awesome, Kunal Roy Kapur is hilarious and Vijay Raaz is just terrific! Imran Khan delivers his best act till date. The stool sample scene, burqa sequence, hotel room sequences and all the ‘potty’ sequences are simply side-splitting.

DELHI BELLY defies the stereotype and makes sure you leave the theaters with a grin on your face. It is ground-breaking and not for you if you can't absorb brash, filthy and bold dialogues. You are prude, moralist or a purist? Stay away!!! coz this is anything but your kind of cinema.

Wanna go with your family? Go but sit at poles apart from each other and enjoy! It’s a TEN on TEN for me!
