Chillar party is a film written and directed by Nitesh Tiwari and Vikas Bahl.So I saw this film knowing basically nothing about it. Yes, I knew it was something about kids. and also that it has been directed by Nitesh Tiwari (Dangal) and Vikas Behl (Queen). I wanted to see that how these two fantastic minds were got together for a film. It was at a time when UTV Spotboy used to bring fresh talent to direct films (BTW Vikas Bahl was one of the spearheads of UTV Spotboy division). Salman Khan too has received a producer credit for the film (obviously because of his love for kids).Plot: Some close friends of the Chandan Nagar Society in Mumbai jump to help a friend who is in trouble.Story and Direction: We have many a times seen people deciding to help others no matter what (This is mostly the case in Indian Love Stories). But when you put the story onto kids, it becomes an entirely different case. So in the very first scene we are introduced to the "Chillar party". The way the names of the members of this "party" are kept is very unique and funny. As the plot progresses, we see the introduction of characters Fatka and Bhidu. Which also impress us (not initially but subsequently). And then to some of the funny characters of the society. Which also are quite impressive. The main villain of the film also was good. The politician also looking for an issue to come to the limelight was quite real. The tone of the film starts from comedy to drama (which I had guessed when the movie started). But sometimes I also felt quite disconnected towards the film. That was mainly in the first half. For this I blame the writing. So a NATIONAL AWARD for this part, I guess it was not right.Performances: The stars of the film are the kids. The way they conduct themselves in all of the scenes are impressive. A special mention to the character Jhangya. I was laughing in all the scenes he said his dialogue. I was quite happy that all the kids got a NATIONAL AWARD for this. The politician/villain of the film was also very good. And the rest of the supporting characters were all fitting the bill.Music: Amit Trivedi scores the film songs and background score. Heis actually quite good in commercial music too. He should actually do this type of music quite often. After A R Rahman, if I like any musician it would be him. "Tai Tai Phis" and "Hum Ek thali ke" were some of my favorites of this film.Favorite scene: I guess it would be the climax of the scene between the kids and Bhide. The way in which Bhide lashes out at the kids for going rogue to save someone and the way the kids take out their Value Education textbook and say one liners from each page of the book to justify their action was commendable.Verdict: On the whole, Chillar Party was an enjoyable film. Although I felt a tiny bit disconnected during the first half, the film was still good, if not excellent.So for me the film is a 8/10 film.

below does Not contain spoiler... I watched it twice. I felt the same excitement while watching it second time. 5 things about this movie. (1)amazing story line like Persian movies, on small scale but catching (2)Amit trivedi music (3)charcters are well developed like Jhaghiya,panoti,akram etc. (4)Story with Morals (5)amzaing comedy it was a theater watch... Go buy the DVD get the netflix its worth spending all the money. also since I need to write more text I would say we want such movies for bollywood since many movie watchers are turning to Hollywood and watching such movies there by killing Indian industry. its the time Indian movie maker develop as the audience mature.

This is another movie of "Taare Zamein Par" category with very good story, dialogs and message. This is what Youth need in India. My family Loved it ... I already have stacked Taare zamein Par, 3 Idiots and now this is again good. I happened to accidentally come across this in Netflix and we watched it ... This movie is a must watch when you are kids, or if you like inspirational + sentimental + comedy ... 10 points for the director. This movie should be shown in school to kids to change the way they think and to be more confident and do things in good cause. For a change main actors are kids and they have done wonderful job. Make a Sequel if Director can read this ...

I didn't have much expectation when I went to see the film. But, this was surprisingly good & refreshing movie. I can easily say, it is better than many contemporary multi-starrer movies.Kids have acted brilliantly in this films. Most of the kids were totally unseen, I mean they have no acting experience, not even in the advertisements. So, two thumbs up for the kids.But, the best thing about the film is the cudgel that the kids take up for a cause against a politician. Funnily, politician has shown no shame fighting with the small kids, just to gratify his ego. Rightfully depicted in the movie.So, kudos to Salman Khan for giving this wonderful little gem.
