No wonder why the film's not a hit among cinema-goers. It doesn't have cheap item songs, flesh show or silly romance or even ridiculous dialog delivery. A critic's love, Club 60 is a very fine drama about life, old age & the search for happiness.

It is a real treat to watch yesteryear actors to come back, and play so genuinely, especially Farooque Sheikh. The whole cast is splendid, but I felt Raghuvir Yadav crossed the line with his antics. The plot is very calm focusing on the lives of 60 something people who meet each other at a club. Raghuvir Yadab brings them together & helps them find happiness in small things of life. Never have I seen in months in Bollywood such beautiful, deep dialogs about the mystery of life and never have I watched characters mourning death so authentically. Sarika is still so svelte!

With calm music and minuscule obscene dialogs here & there, Club 60 can only be lauded using superlatives. The editing & direction could've been better, cinematography is fine.

BOTTOM LINE: This is for everyone, teenagers to adults for it focuses on few values & virtues & explains it in a beautiful manner. Recommended!

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YES
