Well Deserved Praise

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Bollywood is all about abusing Hinduism & Hindu gods. Same they are doing in this movie. Such a disgust...

'O Teri' is a watchable political-comedy, that delivers some laughs in the goings-on. It doesn't offer the funniest script or the best of one liners, but what it certainly is, a decent one-time watch. 'O Teri' Synopsis: Prantabh & Anand, associated with a news channel in Delhi, are in search of a big scam to prove a point to their senior. One fine day, A dead body accidentally lands up in their car & their lives change for good. 'O Teri' is short & undemanding. It cleverly culminates within 105-minutes, it doesn't drag or takes itself too seriously. The Screenplay needed some more wit, but it sails off smoothly, at most parts. Umesh Bist's Direction is passable. Cinematography is good. Editing is ably done.Performance-Wise: Pulkit Samrat & Bilal Amrohi enact the unlikely heroes, admirably. Bilal, especially, does well in the comedic portions. Sarah-Jane Dias has two standard expressions from start to end. Mandira Bedi does justice to her part. Anupam Kher & Vijay Raaz are enjoyable, as always. Murli Sharma leaves a mark.On the whole, 'O Teri' A Fair Entertainer!

The Plot: O Teri is a meaningless comedy film inspired from the yesteryear movie Jaane bhi Do Yaaron. The movie opens with Prantabh Pratab aka P.P. (Pulkit Samrat) and Anand Ishwaram Devdutt Subramanium aka AIDS (Bilal Amrohi) partying in a nightclub.Both P.P. and AIDS are investigative reporters. They report to a female television anchor Monsoon (Sarah-Jane Dias) who consistently humiliates them and make them chase various scandals or scams so that they can boost their channel / programme's TRP. Her funda is, The public wants scandals and scams. If you have something sensational like stories on rape or dacoity, bring it to me, else do not show me your faces.These reporters end up doing one blunder after another. They find themselves caught up in a mess with a slain CBI officer's dead body being dumped into their vehicle. The situation gets worse further (absolutely in an unwitting manner) with them trapped amongst the vested interests of the corrupt politicians, greedy industrialists, corporate lobbyists, puppet bureaucrats, unethical female editor and fraudulent media houses and the dead body's appearance / disappearance act. O Teri takes a dig at real incidents / scams/ scandals through various characters : The commonwealth games scam, nexus between journalists, PR professionals' lobbying, sex scandal etc.Official Trailer:Direction & Written by: The director Umesh Bisht fails to deal with the concept. He along with Neeti Palta has written the same. The approach is very very distasteful. Cast and their Performance: Pulkit Samrat as P.P. has done justice as a stupid reporter. Bilal Amrohi as AIDS disappoints.Sara-Jain Dias as Monsoon is just fine.Vijay Raaz as opposition politician Bhanwar Lal Kilol, otherwise a great actor, is lost in this movie.Anupam Kher as Games organizing committee chief, and Mandira Bedi have nothing much to do. Music: Music is very average. Songs are absolutely misfit. Lyrics are awful. Moments to watch out for: None. Thumbs up: A dialogue by P.P. to AIDS: "When poor people steal, it is known as theft, but when rich people steal, it is called scam". Thumbs down: Difficult to sit through the movie.

Director work is below average. Story is boring and stale. Screenplay is poor, all scenes are scattered. Dialogues are good at places, especially satire ones. There are few scenes, which could have been hilarious, but due to bad execution, unbalanced performance and no connection with story, it fall flat. The scene of drunken police men is one of such scene. Somewhere movie looks like exaggerated and somewhere very slow and boring. Climax is good example of it. Unnecessary much glass breaking and chasing is just too much. Main plot of dead body is so boring and childish. Everything just happens because they just wanted to impose it without any logic. Bridge collapse, sudden popping of songs, buffalo, all are just stuffed. Performance wise Vijay Raj is too good. He makes you laugh even with his limited scope and repetitive dialogues. Both lead actors are very bad in comic timing and voice modulation. They look like body builders rather than actors. Anupam Kher and Mandira Bedi are OK. Music is also not entertaining.
