Chalo Dilli First Look Movie Review and Story

The album jumpstarts with the title song of 'Chalo Dilli' which at present is being played across numerous music channels that have been airing the film's promos for around a fortnight now. A foot tapping track with added Punjabi flavor to it courtesy Manthan's lyrics and arrangements that have Western fusion to them. This particular song has been composed by Gourov Dasgupta. The rendition turns out to be a catchy number that makes you revisit it all over again. One of the better theme tracks to have come out in recent times, this Raja Hasan sung number has just the right kind of energy, spunk and vigor to it which suits the theme of the film.

CHALO DILLI is speckled with sharp and witty lines delivered with accurate timing by the amazing Vinay Pathak, who never disappoints you. He's the soul of the enterprise. On the whole, CHALO DILLI is exciting and amusing in parts. The film has some terrific moments, but the writing could've been more persuasive towards the post-interval portions. Yet, all said and done, there's something nice about it, despite the blemishes. Decent watch!

The story of Chalo Dilli may be simple, straight and sprinkled with all the predictable twists and turns you can envisage in a drama that pitches a snooty, spoilt woman against a desi Indian male.But hey, the film has so much soul, specially in the climax, it makes up for any shortcomings in story and vision. Also, the narrative has a sweet simplicity which transports you into the onscreen journey and makes you a willing witness to the bond-building between `bhaisaheb' and `behenji'.
