Parting Shot: Rajma Chawal is quintessentially desi – and a feel-good family film is always good news.Ĭast: Rishi Kapoor, Anirudh Talwar, Amyra Dastur, Jitendra Shastri, Aparshakti Khurana, Harish Khanna, Manu Rishi Chadha, Sheeba Chaddha, Nirmal Rishi, Adil Hussain, Rahul Ram, Mukesh Chhabra.This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. It’s a shame the writers Vivek Anchalia, Manu Rishi Chadha and Leena Yadav don’t bring more of that on the screen. Every character here has that loved whiff of Delhi in it. And it’s not like there are no interesting characters. In the entire screenplay, it’s either Rishi Kapoor’s or Amyra Dastur’s character that takes the forefront. What’s Blah: The film has several characters, but the screenplay downright refuses to make use of them. Anirudh Talwar and Amyra Dastur do a good job as well. Other than that, the supporting cast is quite good. Rishi Kapoor does a great job playing something that he’s been for a while now – the North Indian father. Middle class India does this a lot – fake profiles – but this is the first time it’s shown in a film. What’s Wow: The concept is unique, and so is the idea. Yes, the idea is doomed to fail and it does fail – that’s what the film is all about. After the mother expires, the relationship between father and son spirals south, which forces the father to take a weird step – chat with his son using a fake ID on a social network. Rishi Kapoor plays a father who has zero communication with his son, played by Anirudh Talwar. The film stars Rishi Kapoor, Aniruddh Talwar, Amyra Dastur and others.Īlso Read | Netflix Original Film The Indian Detective, Review Now, Netflix comes with Rajma Chawal, a film based in good old Delhi that’s about the generation gap and the bonding of a father and son.
