the leading man is my tpye

This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Admirable film.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Talk about watching movies out of guilty pleasure, "Luv shuv tey chicken khurana" definitely finds its place among them. The average IMDb score might not bode well with some people, but this is a solid movie. Even though it doesn't boast of any esteemed name or a stellar cast, the lesser known cast delivers a solid performance that makes you dwell about their normal lives and find it believable. The subtlety with which some emotional scenes are depicted garners a pat on the back for the cast and the director. It has its weaknesses though with its lead actor Kunal Kapoor delivering an inconsistent performance. His facial expressions and his words didn't seem to resonate with each other, maybe I would go as far as calling it corny. Otherwise overall a good film, left me with a good feeling.

So, we had nothing to do last weekend and so we decided to watch this awe- uninspiring movie.It starts off well, but as it rolls, the plot is too predictive. The glamor of the movie is the recipe of the movie is Chicken Khurana and the whole idea is so... so hackneyed and vague that you lose all your interest and still there is 30 minutes to go. Sequences like the girl kisses Kunal Kapoor and some farty funny ones will make you laugh but still at the end, the "buchade hue dost" scene was too unrealistic. If the ending would have been better, I would have voted 7 instead of my 4.Enough said, watch this not-so-cooking movie if you have watched all movies of the IMDb top 250!

This is a good simple movie after a long time. This movie gives you some gentle comedy rather than masala type comedy. The story is of a boy (Kunal Kapoor) who stole money from his Daarji (Vinod Nagpal) and went abroad. After many years he found himself nowhere and was under pressure of a local gang.He came back to India to beg/borrow/steal money from his family again. His Chacha (Rajendra Sehi) was surprised and doubted him for his return. Daarji's Chicken Khurana was known as the best Chicken but unfortunately Daarji lost his memory and he did't even tell anything about the recipe. Kunal was offered 1 crore for this recipe and this was the only hope for his money and future.Huma Qureshi has given a stellar performance. Kunal Kapoor has given a decent performance but nothing to shout about. Rajendra Sethi as his chacha is outstanding as always. Titu Mama(Rajesh Sharma)is excellent. Other supporting cast has also given their best.Music adds a lot to this movie. Music by Amiit Trivedi is stellar. The theme music of this movie perfectly suits and the background score is also very good. Songs like Kikli Kalerdi adds some good taste to the movie.Yes, it also have some cons but generally, we don't get such type of cinema in Bollywood. This Movie is a must watch for everyone.

There's not a lot to say here. The title as I've put it says a lot. The movie is a bit slow (thats my only critique), but worth a watch especially for those who appreciate watching scenes that depict the vast fields & the culture in a typical Punjabi home (open heart, ability to do 'jugaad', luv shuv {as the title suggests}, and wits amongst family members)...in short the typical life of Punjab (filmy style) - all these have been sweetly depicted in the movie. Further, the overall direction (as I said..surrounding the Punjabi life as has been shown), the music, the performances (though not awesome but good nonetheless) would serve you quite good. The roles I liked were the ones that brought a smile to my face..1. Huma Qureshi in her traditional attire and performing the role of lovely cute doc was something I looked forward to before entering the movie hall and I was not left disappointed. Her Wasseypur timing of dialogues and expressions are still in place and I believe this actress is sure to go long places if she continues that :) 2. Teetu mama..loved his role..won't go into details but lazyness, food & a good heart were some of the characteristics that defined it! 3. Kunal Kapoor - okay a second critique here but a minor one this time..he could have acted a lot better I felt, but you can ignore that understanding he's out back 10 years living in London in the movie and is not habituated to being a typical Punjabi while several things revolve around his mind. 4. The performances of side characters (dadaji, chachi, chacha, bhai, etc) were also good.Neways..overall, I would reiterate what the title says - its slow but yes..can be classified as a one-time watch, quite simply, for the simplicity and the sweetness depicted in it :)
