I think I should make a rule for myself; if a movie has Vinay Pathak in it, I should watch it. Whichever movie he's acted in, I have liked.
I recently saw 'Chalo Dilli' and was floored. How come I didn't hear more (and better things) about this movie? It's cute, funny, touching and inspiring. It is about two very different people being forced to share some time and space and how they bond despite their differences.
For once Lara Dutta is most aptly cast in the role of a jet-setting, sophisticated working woman who is grappling with a feeling of not being in control of the situation . Whoever chose her for the role should be given kudos. Vinay Pathak, of course, is a delight to watch as the streetsmart middle-class trader with a smile and a saying for every situation. As the duo travel together from Jaipur to Delhi, they (or mostly Lara's character) discover their strengths and weaknesses via various incidents and experiences that they go through. The bittersweet end is somewhat predictable but nice nevertheless.
Thoroughly enjoyed the movie.
