Chabutro review: Raunaq Kamdar-Anjali Barot's film has Bollywood charm

3.5/5

Story:

Viraj Patel (Raunaq Kamdar) wants to go back to the US but doesn't get his visa. Meanwhile, he finds out that India has opportunities, only to get his US visa approved. Will he give India a chance or go back to a relaxed life in the US?

Review:

Raunaq Kamdar as Viraj Patel is introduced to the film soon after with a pet doggo. It is the cutie (doggo) who narrates the story about Viraj.

He is a man who loves life. He lives every moment whether in the day or at night.

The actor shows a chef side in the film too. He makes the role believable for most parts.

The narrative of the story, even if interesting, has slow to no flow. That along with the dramatic music disturbs the viewing experience.

Anjali Barot's entry into the film is rather charming. Her chemistry with Raunaq's Viraj is rather flawless.

Dharmesh Vyas in the role of Chinmay is a pleasant surprise. He adds spice to the anyway entertaining film.

Chhaya Vora in the role of Viraj's mother is typical. She tries to mend things between her husband and son who has just come back from the US.

Bhumika Barot in the role of baker Pavitra has a cameo appearance. She is cute as always.

The film is a typical feel-good film but has a charm nonetheless. It is the Bollywood charm, where romance is in the air and it's adorable.

Verdict:

Chanakya Patel's film is a beautiful journey you will want to take. It is not unpredictable but is charming enough, especially if you like romantic movies. Give this one a try.
