THE
STORY
Maulik (Anuuj Saxena) a theatre actor and director
struggles with his team to get a show in Delhi. At the rehearsal time near
Paranthe wali gali Naina Kaur (Neha Pawar) meets him and join the theatre
group. For a show Naina manages to fix up a meeting with an event organizer
Saluja (Vijayant Kohli). But on the show time Saluja dumps Maulik and his show,
reasoning the non-sales of tickets and replaces with a sex-comedy show. Then
what happened is in the film.
CRITICAL
ANALYSIS
The script is written by Sachin Gupta
about an artist’s passion for theatre, his living style, dreams, love, success,
failure, friendship and relation. Performance-wise, Anuuj Saxena is good. Neha
Pawar tries her level best to look the character. The chemistry between Anuuj and Neha doesn’t
work. The rest of the cast Mohinder Gujral, Himanshu Thakkar, Yuvaraj Haral,
Prabhakar Srinet, Jaspreet and others are in adequate support.
TRADE
ANALYSIS
Writer-director Sachin Gupta’s debut film is totally aimless, seems a theatre
play and fail to connect with the audiences. The music by Vasundhara das &
Vikram Khajuria are passable and the lyrics are saving grace. Cameraman
Debasish Banerjee is fair. Vinay Chauhan’s editing is okay. The production and
technical values are average. Publicity was weak.
THE LAST WORD
At the box office, the film is a non-starter. PARANTAS are not Testy in the Paranthe wali Gali.
