Aloo Chaat Trailers

What do you do when your entire family is against the bride of your choice? Do you replace your family? Or do you replace the bride? Or do you make an aloo-chaat of your life? Aloo Chaat the film, is rich in masala - with plots within sub-plots, with wisecracks dripping endlessly like that tangy chutney, and is a treat that you don't want to miss.It tickles you, shakes you, rattles you, and gags you as it takes you through the narrow lanes and equally narrow minds of orthodox Delhi parents, to a wider world of love and romance, and an unexpected twist in the tale...

This is one of the best Indian Comedy Movie I have ever seen. As usual acting of Sanjay Mishra in the role of Chhadami was hilarious. Manoj Pahwa in the role of Hakeem Tarachand was a perfect fit for the movie. I've already seen this movie 5-6 times and can see it 9-10 time more. It's a complete family entertainment movie. Songs are also good specially the title track and the Punjabi wedding song(which is again one of my favorite Punjabi folk song). A little disappointed with the end otherwise the movie is completely awesome and full family entertainer.Aftab did good acting but I expect more from him. I want director to make its sequel as well. Hope they will make it soon. RDB and Kailash Kher song rocks.

Aloo Chaat is a romantic comedy about a America return Hindu boy who is in love with a Muslim Girl. The movie is set in Delhi and is a comical portrayal of the reactions of a typical middle class Punjabi family when they find out. A hilarious story with all the twists & turns of falling in love. Aloo Chaat, the name comes from an Indian dish, made of potatoes and spices - it's delicious & a favorite with street food lovers. The movie captures all the spice, the fun and the deliciousness of falling in love.It is a laugh-a-minute film with some amazing performances by very talented actors. In fact, Robby Grewal has managed to get Aftab to act. What is noteworthy is Robby Grewal's sensitivity to clichéd perceptions of his community, albeit without the slightest hint of a parochial, prejudiced world view. He stares at those areas that Mira Nair just walked by. If Monsoon Wedding is a fleeting view of a community celebrating the goodness and alienating the worst in itself, Aloo Chat is a community celebrating the utter lack of pretensions.Aloo Chat is funny. But it's also honest and subtle, with a lurking-beyond-the-surface humour. And Robby Grewal's eyes are well equipped to celebrate that enchanting sense of life that only Delhi, the city of refugees can provide.

The movie is typically based in the Indian Capital New Delhi portraying a Punjabi family. The lone son of the family Nikhil played by Aftab Shivdasani is just back from America and is now being forced to select a suitable girl. He already loves a girl Aamna played by Aamna Sharif but since she is a Muslim it wont be easily accepted by the family. So in order to change the mind set of the typical traditional family, Nikhil, Aamna,Niki (Linda Arsenio ) set up a nice drama where in Aamna has to win the family. Will Aamna be able to win their heart is the big question of the movie and if yes how would she do it ?The entire set up is hilarious and the movie has some very good performances by Aftab, Sanjay Mishra, Linda and Kulbhushan Kharbanda. The movie is a comedy about situations and doesn't force laughter onto you. The dialogue delivery and the situations are quite humorous and will make a every good dinner movie with your family. A must watch if u want be light headed for a stress full tomorrow.

Well,If you want to see a movie with your entire family then this is it...this is a movie for you...Aloo Chaat is sweet light hearted romantic comedy..starring Aftab and débutant Aamna...The thing I liked about the movie is that it has got a really good feel about it...You will not be bored at any point...and the fact that its running time is 1 hr 56 mins helps...But I have just one problem with the movie and that is its ending(climax)...that just spoils it...So to summarize i would say that i liked Robby Grewal's previous movie MP3 much more than this..but Aloo Chaat is not that bad either... I'll give it a 7/10 mainly because its a family entertainer...
