Lately,
Bollywood
has
been
exploring
the
untravelled
road
of
the
youth.
Be
it
Pyaar
Ka
Panchnama
or
Luv
Ka
The
End,
all
of
them
have
managed
to
win
the
hearts
of
the
viewers.
Delhi
Belly
will
do
the
same,
expect
for
that
this
comic
thriller
only
targets
the
youth
and
no
one
else.
It
is
strictly
not
a
family
watch
at
your
drawing
room.
Delhi
Belly,
starring
Imran
Khan,
Vir
Das,
Kunaal
Roy
Kapur,
Shenaz
Treasurywala
and
Poorna
Jagannathan,
has
been
directed
by
Abhinay
Deo
and
produced
by
Aamir
Khan.
Yes,
the
tag
Aamir
Khan
itself
describes
the
uniqueness
of
Delhi
Belly.
Tashi
(Imran
Khan),
Arup
(Vir
Das)
and
Nitin
(Kunaal
Roy
Kapur)
are
flat
mates,
buddies
and
that
by
default
makes
them
partners
in
crime.
Tashi
is
to
get
married
in
a
month
to
the
glamorous
and
beautiful
Sonia
(Shenaz
Treasurywala).
Arun
has
been
dumped
by
his
girlfriend
and
is
annoyed
over
his
boss,
who
has
a
weird
idea
of
creativity,
sketching
a
smiling
banana.
Nitin
a
foody
will
soon
discover
that
eating
delicious
Tandoori
Chicken
off
a
street
vendor
is
going
to
give
him
the
worst
case
of
Delhi
Belly.
Three
of
them
lead
a
regular
life
till
they
get
on
the
hit
list
of
a
deadly
crime
syndicate
(Vijay
Raaz).
And
the
story
unfolds.
Delhi
Belly
has
a
novel
story
presented
in
an
entirely
new
way,
which
involves
cuss
words,
outrageous
-daring
moments,
raucous,
boisterous,
potty-mouthed
caper.
In
short
it
is
a
raunchy
youth
film
that
may
give
a
culture
shock
to
Indian
audience.
The
smart
screenplay
and
witty
and
colourful
dialogue
adds
up
a
lot
of
energy
to
the
film.
Thumps
up
to
the
writer
Akshat
Verma,
who
steals
away
the
show
with
an
original
and
colourful
idea.
Script
is
airtight
and
you
can't
afford
missing
even
one
scene
from
the
film.
Though
Delhi
Belly
seems
to
be
inspired
by
adult
comedies
of
Hollywood,
but
director
Abhinay
Deo
and
writer
Akshat
Verma
have
maintained
the
Indianess
of
the
film
at
heart.
Delhi
Belly
is
fully
desi
with
a
videsi
touch.
The
humor
is
on
the
face
and
sardonic.
Delhi
Belly
carries
a
lingo
that
the
youth
would
connect
with
instantly
and
perhaps,
it
may
go
down
as
a
cult
film
in
its
genre.
The
location
of
the
film
reveals
the
real
Delhi
with
crammed
bylanes
and
middle
class
surrounding.
Music
Delhi
Belly
by
Ram
Sampat
is
innovative.
'DK
Bose'
stands
out
among
the
youth.
Performance
Delhi
Belly
is
basically
a
boy's
film
and
boy's
films
are
always
fun.
The
chemistry
between
the
three
actors
is
superb
and
that
is
what
makes
the
script
come
alive.
There
sense
of
humour
is
in
a
smooth
sync.
Imran
is
at
his
best,
it
won't
be
wrong
to
say
that
this
is
his
best
work
till
date.
Vir
Das
is
incredible.
Kunaal
Roy
Kapur
is
the
scene-stealer.
Shenaz
Treasurywala
acts
well.
Poorna
Jagannathan
catches
your
eye.
Vijay
Raaz
is
exceptional.
Paresh
Ganatra
is
equally
competent.
Rahul
Singh
is
perfect.
Over
All
Over
All
we
assure
that
you
will
exit
the
auditorium
with
a
grin
on
your
face.
Delhi
Belly
works
big
time.
An
incredible
film
that
takes
you
to
the
untapped
world
of
youth.
Don't
forget
to
catch
the
show!
