What do you get if you mix brilliant acting with a basic story? You get Do Dooni Chaar. It has been done multiple times in the past especially by Amol Palekar. Take a girl, take a boy, capture the shyness of the boy and how he overcomes that and you got a movie at hand that touches people of all ages. Of course, you need to handle it well else it has potential to become a flop.
Do dooni chaar is such a story where the basic emotions are captured very well. Be it a girl's dream of being different than her 'nutsy' family or a boy's ventures of living his own life and all this when Father is trying to fight between lures of wrongdoings and conviction of morals.
Now the ratings..
Theme. Almost everything sticks to the theme, right from the boy hiding money from parents to father trying to win a lottery by opening 1000's of 555 soap packets. Some elements could have been avoided 4/5.
Chemistry. Could have been better. Off late I have noticed actors in many movies have started speaking as if they are talking to a wall without any flow. This movie does a better job but someitmes you feel the same disconnect. 3/5
Story Line. As I said it's one of those Amol Palekar ones and you know how were those. 5/5
Direction: Brilliant, though choreography/picturization of songs could have been better. 4/5
Characterization. This is the best part of the movie. See Rishi Kapoor tapping his helmet after wearing it and you would surely remember a scene from real life. 5/5
Overall (Average): 4.2/5. Bottomline: Must See and Make sure your parents watch it too!
