There are friends at the local gym (a wonderful tip of hat to RSS !) who, between the exercise regime provide suggestions of all sorts. There are mothers, who faint on the slightest hint of divorce, give “krantikari” advice to the daughter to entice her husband by watching english cinema and even have tears of joy when they successfully interpret the noise coming from the bed springs as the ‘Act’.
There’s a father who’s constantly disapproving of his son, but equally reciprocates his affection for the daughter-in-law. Adding salt to the injury are the parents and the family members of the couple, who have their own agenda. While Sandhya is happy to start her new life with such a good looking guy, Prem finds it really difficult to get along with this girl with weight issues.
#Dum laga ke haisha review plus
He tells a very simple but thought provoking story of a newly-wed couple, who have individual identity crises.Ī good for nothing Prem is married off ( True in every sense !) to a well educated, plus size young lady Sandhya. Sharat Kataria must’ve been one of us, who keep on reminiscing about that time. The love for double sided cassettes, recording them at the local store for 20 bucks and then listening to it till the cassette gets all wobbly, it all comes back to the mind when you watch this little gem of a film.The director Mr. Dum Laga Ke Haisha takes us back to that era. We loved the Tv programs, even advertisements, the jhankaar beat songs and rotary phones with missed calls to inform the arrival and trunk calls through operators. We tend to get nostalgic about that era because in all of us, there is small part which belonged to the 90’s. 1 (no prizes for guessing Virar ka chokra!) and Kumar Sanu was the king of melodies. The Khans were the next big things, but at that point of time, they were just chocolate boy heroes (as the tabloids used to call them!) pitted against the entertainer No. There was a time when Doordarshan used to rule the middle class households.
