This felt like the rural Indian ( Rajasthani ) adaptation of: I spit on your grave, with the opposite gender as the avenger.

A decent one time watch, this Netflix movie also has some nice scenic captures of the rural Indian desert landscapes. The supporting characters & their motivations could've been better.

Fatima Sana needs to do more work and this also seems to be Harshvardhan's better suited roles while Satish Kaushik seems to have got typecasted into the obese sidekick that inevitably dies.

Dunno whether it was the makeup or not but this was the first movie in which Anil Kapoor actually looks his age😂

Having watched just the first 2 episodes of this series, It's safe to say that Jamnadas Majethia needs to refresh his fictional family setup. This easily passes off as a stale Sarabhai knockoff. To avoid being this it needs a totally new outlook.

Multiple similarities with Sarabhai of which a few are: Rich & high class Gujarati family in Mumbai, English correction & teaching amongst family members, getting lost in their own idiosyncrasies, daughter with a funny/weird, thinking/replying approach in son-in law etc.

I have no issue in him repeating few of his previous actors in his new works - he does the same in his present other work Wagle ki Duniya (which seems better than this as of now?) Have to wait & watch, maybe this will get better down the line?

Saw this for free (with ads) on Hotstar in 2022 June & glad that I didn't spoil my Diwali with this a decade back when it initially released considering it is a Hulchul plot copy.

3 Idiots (engineering hostel life + suicide attempt) + Student of the year 1 (inter team competition) + fresh lead pair (Sushant + Shraddha) ~ = Chhichhore!

Shimla Mirchi + Jab we met ~= Ginny weds Sunny. 'Nough said!
