There is nothing outstanding about the plot of the film, in fact, it is full of clichés. Still, I enjoyed watching the film, and never got bored because of its earnest approach.
The movie has very positive, even if unrealistic ideas. For example, Parvati's remarriage really won my heart. The narrative supported practical solutions over idealistic ones, which are so typical in our Hindi films. Sonu remains disabled till the end, with only some improvement. There is no scene of herogiri, or hero protecting the heroine with the help of blows. No courtroom drama. No overnight stardom. Very remarkable for a Hindi film.
The film does disappoint on several counts though. The performances are just about there, but never there. Except Harsh Chaya, nobody delivers too well. Ramji meeting a bunch of restaurateurs after his initial disappointment is unrealistic, as is the heroine falling for a villager. The songs are very bugging, too. Especially the one that goes, "When in Rome, do as Romans..."
Overall, a feel-good film with an effort to be different from the mainstream ones. Deserves encouragement.
