Movie Mania #2 : Mere Dad Ki Maruti

  I have just been wondering if I had Hermione’s Time-Turner. It is one gadget that needs to be invented soon! How time passes so soon? I mean last week we started with our new session and there is so much work to do, somebody just destroy this curriculum!

Well besides getting all fussy about the time and work that I have to do, I managed to take some time out for a movie, Mere Dad Ki Maruti!

Set in Chandigarh, it is about Sameer Khullar (Saqib Saleem) a college going guy who is flattered by the pretty Jazzleen (Rhea Chakraborty). To impress Jazzleen, Sameer sort of borrows his father’s new car that he bought as a wedding gift for his daughter. All hell breaks loose when Sameer loses the car just before the wedding! After car goes missing, Sameer and his best friend Gattu form a tissue of lies in order to save Sameer from the rage of his father.

Not to miss out Ram Kapoor’s performance as Sameer’s father, my favourite character in the film and a decent performance by Rhea Chakraborty as Jasleen/Jazzleen who calls Sameer ‘psychic’ instead of ‘psycho’ (Thinking that their meaning is same).

On the whole, it was light hearted comedy that brought me back to spirits and revitalized my mind.
