Chhichhore

Strains to be an inspirational comedy tear-jerker (Bollywood-wise, a reasonable genre) but mostly seems programmatic and timid.

The one-liners keep coming so that even when the film tests your patience - and let me assure you that it does - you keep rooting for these people to succeed.

The humour in Chhichhore is so organic that one can forgive the film's contrivances.

Chhichhore feels like a mixture of many films you’ve seen in the past, it still impresses and entertains you in all aspects.

It may be a film about losers but Chhichhore is a winner.

The movie begins as a rambunctious college campus comedy, quickly moves into the sentimental family drama zone, returns for the fun and games, shifts back into tear-jerking territory, and finally runs out of breath with only some ambitions realised.

It failed to leave any kind of lasting impact, which is unfortunate...

When the film cuts to the present, the characters who seemed likeable a few scenes ago turn insipid and boring.

All-in-all, Chhichhore is a well-acted comedy providing plenty of laughs with its one-liners and talks about an important issue as well. What more can one ask for, really?

It tells you that the journey is far more important than the destination and that losing is as critical a life lesson as winning. The film scores high on many accounts and is certainly worth watching.
