This is pure vegetarian entertainment, with tadka of witty dialogues, light moments and lots of romance.
The first half has adequate pace, with each and every character well defined. Each scene is picturised so well, and every character is so impeccable, that you hardly find any time to think of anything else, but cheeni kum.
There are so many repetive situation and you loved it each time. Whether it is about Amitabh's Umbrella, or comedy on Vinay jain's teeth, or conversation between Zohra sehgal and Amitabh for gym, or Swini askinig for A grade movie. Everytime it looked so fresh and entertaining, and you urge to have it more.
The problem starts in the second half, as the pace of the movie goes down. Paresh Rawal is one of the finest actors in the Industry. Unfortunately, Cheeni kum doesn't offers much to him, and thus the problem starts in the movie. Paresh's role could have been written better, and that would have added value to the movie.
The best part of the movie is its witty dialogues. Each dialogues makes you laugh. The songs goes with the mood of the story, and surprisingly, and you won't if there was any song in the movie. Cinematogarphy is at par. The locales are good.
The best performances come from Amitabh, Tabu, Zohra sehgal and Baby Swini.
Tabu looked beautiful. Although the age of Amitabh is reminded 100 times in the movie, he looked as energetic and fresh as half of his age. Baby swini is surprise in the movie and you all will love her. The supporting cast(Vinay Jain. Krishna Bhatt, Nikhil Ratnaparkhi, Pradeep Shukla, Jameel Khan) has done a good job.Paresh is good but his role is not justified.
*What to watch out for:
-**Witty Dialogues
- Excellent Screenplay.
-Tabu's grace.
-Swini's sweetness.
-A light comedy, to relax you after you tiring work schedule.
*What not to watch out for:
Despite the sugar less romance, cheeni kum is a sweet, lovable entertainer. with time, it will grow of mouth publicity, and has a full potential to become a big hit. As there are no other big banner movies running(except Lokhandwala - which is of different taste and genre), Cheeni kum will have the advantage of lesser competition and should do well at box offfice.
This is a must watch, and is recommended to be watched with you wife, girlfriend, sister, or anyone.
