Vicky Donor

This movie is funny and wierd right from its name. As soon as the titles credits roll in, the movie starts off with Annu Kapoor portraying as the fertility doctor and gives us a glimpse of the sperm industry and what a huge industry it is. The underlying message of "STRASS" and effecting the family life is very subtly showcased in the movie along with humour and great performances by the actors. 

The dialogues, most of them are in Punjabi. The script is well written and I could not stop laughing at the reactions given by actors and their dialogues. Dr. Chaddha's (Annu Kapoor) talking in sperm language - "Confused sperm, greedy sperm, etc." was unexpected and very hilarious. Ayushmaan Khurana as Vicky donor performed well and chose a very good script for his debut as a hero. 

The lead actress, Yami Gautam was refreshingly beautiful and talented. All the actors looked very natural and the chemistry between the lead actors was good to watch. The music also blended in with the theme of the movie and looked as the puzzles which fit in together. Some small things of the movie which was very good to watch and made the audience feel good are: 1) the widowed mother of Vicky and his grandmom drinking together 2) Vicky giving pedicure to ladies in his mom's parlour 3) The way Dr. Chaddha says "sperm" with his fingers 4) The "Aryaputhra" and the history of macedonians as explained by Dr. Chaddha 5) The marriage and the bonding scene of the "Punjabis" and the "Bongs". There are many other scenes which flow in with the script of the movie and are good to watch.

Towards the second half, the emotional content becomes too high and it looks to the audience as if this part is a little boring. However, The script, the actors, the music, the director everybody fit right in as the pieces of a puzzle and everything clicked. This is a fun movie to watch which is very entertaining and also has a hidden message in it (:wink). Do go watch it for a 2 and half hour break from  your hectic lives.
