A roller coaster fun ride film that has many good moments.I liked it primarily for the treatment. It's a story that has some clues from yesteryear's DON but was treated completely differently and more realistically. Kudos to the director Rajat Kapoor for having the courage to put this up.Ranvir Shorey shows many facets of his acting capabilities here. He is simply brilliant and endearing. As the film moves, his character evolves and thus it grew on me. Of others, Naseeruddin Shah was at ease with his character. Saurabh Shukla plays his role effortlessly. A host of others gather to make this film a watch just for their acting. The best part of the film is the cast in itself. The cast that has tremendous acting abilities. The cinematography was good, if not great. What was shown was adequately done. The editing was superb. Considering this as 1 hour 50 minutes film, all the unnecessary things are chopped off. No uncalled for songs and no heroic fights. It's simply put and well compiled.The writing is terrific. With showing small cultural differences to major mindset exchanges, the film deals with many aspects without any hype and hoopla. The simplicity comes to the foray as a saving grace and it indeed is the big positive of this film.Thanks to writers Rajat Kapoor and Saurabh Shukla for having written it so exceptionally well. Also, thanks to producers for having the courage to bring it on screen. If not for anything, just watch it for Ranvir Shorey. A 4.5 for this brilliant film. http://braddugg.blogspot.in/

We've had a lot of movies of late that signify a promising future, and this one carries forward the future of Bollywood. Directed beautifully by Rajat Kapoor (who was also involved with Bheja Fry), this movie is all you want a movie to be- Crisp storyline, brilliant acting, entertaining dialogues, and riveting as a whole. Ranvir Shorey revels in the lead role, very smoothly fitting into the roles of V.K. the actor and Raje the Don, and he gets even better when he's playing both the roles in the same body! He is truly a great actor, and if this is the direction Bollywood chooses to take, then he will be at the helm of it. Vinay Pathak as usual gives a dedicated performance, funny with the tinge of darkness. His buddy is also fantastic, and his dialogue delivery and accent are hilarious. All in all, an excellent experience, and the last line of the movie makes you realise, that its not just a dark comedy.

Mithya is a film that has all ingredients of entertainment and can be called a complete entertainment.Ranvir Shorey is a talented actor who proves his acting skills in the very shortest of role he is given.Mithya is his film and he had ample time to prove himself and he did it excellently. Other casts in the film are also good and with such lovely performance,Mithya does become a movie that should not be missed. Ranvir shorey is in the lead role while Rajat Kapoor as a director was excellent in the film.Ranvir Shorey is particularly brilliant due to the fact that he has played a double role in the film.He certainly may not be a huge superstar but he cannot be ignored due to the sheer brilliance of his acting. The film starts with about how a simple man VK (Ranvir Shorey)tries his best to really make a mark for himself in the film industry.It's a film that has all ingredients of entertainment and can be called a complete entertainment.
