Delhi Belly

Plot synopsis:
The story revolves around three roommates, journalist Tashi (Imran Khan), photographer Nitin Berry (Kunaal Roy Kapur) and cartoonist Arup (Vir Das), leading an unkempt and debt-ridden life in a shady apartment in Delhi. Tashi's ditzy fiancée, Sonia (Shenaz Treasurywala), is an air hostess who agrees to deliver a package for Vladimir Dragunsky (Kim Bodnia) to Somayajulu (Vijay Raaz), without realizing its contents or that Somayajulu is a gangster. Sonia asks Tashi to deliver the package. Tashi, in turn, asks Nitin to do so. But Nitin is unable to do so as he is suffering ' Delhi Belly'. Nitin hands Sonia's package to Arup for delivery to Somayajulu, along with a package containing his stool sample for delivery to Nitin's doctor. Arup mixes up the two bags. Somayajulu, furious, tortures Vladimir to find his package.
Meanwhile, Nitin photographs his landlord with a prostitute. He sends an envelope with the photographs to his landlord to blackmail him. Tashi is with Sonia, when his colleague Menaka (Poorna Jagannathan) calls him on the pretext of work. When he reaches the place he realizes that it is just a party and Menaka called him just to have fun. Menaka's ex-husband Rajeev sees them together and punches Tashi in the eye in a fit of jealousy. Tashi retaliates and knocks Rajeev out. As Tashi and Menaka leave they are chased by a furious Rajeev and his friends who shoot at them. The duo barely manage to escape.
Vladimir informs Somayajulu that the mix-up must have been caused by Sonia as she didn't know what she was carrying in the package. Somayajulu calls Sonia, informs her about the mix-up and asks her to give him the address of the person who had delivered the package. When Tashi arrives into his apartment, he walks into Somayajulu who has Arup standing on a stool with a noose around his neck. On hard interrogation, Somayajulu discovers the mix-up and realizes that the package must be with Nitin's doctor.
Nitin gets the package from his doctor's office, wherein Somayajulu finds his thirty diamonds hidden inside. Upon recovering his booty, he orders his henchmen to kill the three roommates. One of them is about to shoot Tashi, when another kicks the stool on which Arup was standing to hang him. Luckily for the roommates, the ceiling of the apartment collapses, since it can't take Arup's weight. The cave-in knocks out Somayajulu and his men, leaving one with broken arms. Tashi, Arup and Nitin escape with the diamonds and spend the night at Menaka's place. The next day they sell the diamonds to a local jeweller.
As the roommates prepare to get out of town with the money, they get a call from Somayajulu who has kidnapped Sonia. He threatens to kill her if they don't return the diamonds. The trio try to buy back the diamonds from the jeweller, who demands double the sale amount.
Without the money, Tashi comes up with a plan. Nitin, Arup, Tashi and Menaka disguise themselves in burqas and rob the jeweller, leaving him the bag of money. They flee in Tashi's car with the police on their tail and go to the hotel where Somayajulu is holding Sonia. As they are about to make the exchange with Somayajulu, the police arrive at the hotel room. There is a shoot-out between the police and Somayajulu's gang.
Nitin, Arup, Tashi and Sonia, who had hit the floor during the gunfight, are left as the only survivors. Menaka, who by now realises that she likes Tashi, is upset to learn about his engagement and walks away from him. Tashi breaks off his engagement to Sonia. Later, it is revealed that Nitin did not return the cash to the jewellery store owner, and had kept most of the money for himself (whereupon he abandons blackmailing the landlord). The film ends when Menaka comes to the roommates' apartment to return Tashi's car's hubcap lost while escaping from Rajeev. Tashi jumps into her car through the open window and kisses her passionately.
Producer-actor Aamir Khan is seen dancing in a song and dance performance as the credits start rolling.

Review:
He not only gave a movie that will be talked about for quite a long time , but again came to Imran's rescue, to give him a re-launch he desperately needed!Every thing new has been tried , with the language being 90% English , the occasional Hindi comes out in the forms of those "terms of endearment" , and the lingo is something that we all dig!
Having starred in two back to back Hindi blockbusters in Ghajini and 3 Idiots, I'm guessing Aamir Khan, one of the largest stars of contemporary Hindi Cinema, is looking to spend more time behind the camera to forge a different brand of Hindi film targeted at an international audience, one that's probably sans the usual Masala formula containing song and dance routines, and creating movie magic that is within a comfortable two hour runtime.
His Aamir Khan Productions have already produced the more art house fare in Dhoby Ghat, and now, Delhi Belly continues the trend to appeal to audiences around the world, stating its intention with the predominant use of English, and circling around the crime caper with a generous dose of madcap comedy.And it worked wonders, with a very audacious, tightly knit plot that contains everything including the proverbial kitchen sink, where 3 friends and flat mates go about their usual daily business and routine, until they get inadvertently caught up with a smuggling ring with the smugglers out after their blood following a mix up of their precious cargo, and lumps of watery faeces.
Yes you read that right, this is almost a Bollywood answer to Hollywood's Hangover where the protagonists go on a quest of sorts, only that it's genuinely funnier, and loads more charming, even as it does venture into toilet humour for a fair bit, and a lot more dropping of the F-bombs quite unheard of in Hindi cinema.As far as Hindi adult comedy goes, this is probably my first, and what a ride it was.
And before I forget, Nitin's the catalyst of the film with his contracting of Delhi Belly, which becomes the inevitable running joke throughout the story – watching just how he contracts it, is already worth the ticket price (and a warning we must be wary from which hawker we buy food from).Before you know it you're thrown into the classic mixup involving mistaken identities, misplaced items, little side gags and plots that get thrown around thick, fast and furious (my favourite involves orange juice), a landlord who got blackmailed, romance, and gangsters who very well behave like, well, regular Joes and inadvertent poseurs.
Disco Fighter serves up plenty of retro, disco fun coupled with his fair share of vulgar moves, that I think he'd fit right in if cast in the next Austin Powers film, complete with exaggerated gyrating pelvis to boot.Delhi Belly is the best Hindi film to date for the year, and you will do yourself a disservice if you were to miss this totally.
Those rope of morality, sanctimony and congeniality which had tied down so many of India's almost-awesome films have been cut open and the authentic urban Indian (who does hurl a few abuses here and there every day due to the misfortune happening to him) is now free thanks to Aamir Khan and Abhinay Deo. Still, Delhi Belly is fine filmmaking mostly due to the makers' unabashed vision and the decision to let no stone unturned in making this comedy.To start off, Ram Sampath's mind-blowing music in the promos is what brought the first batch of audience to this movie and it has some really wacky numbers (Bhaag DK Bose, Nakkadwale Disco and Bedardi Raja to name a few).
Imran is in a dream role and this could be his best act ever if he continues to do movies like the ones before he did Delhi Belly.
Great storytelling by Abhinay Deo. As a bonus we're treated to a never-before item number by Aamir Khan in the end, along with some food for our ingenuity-hungry mind throughout the film.Like all of Aamir Khan's house productions, Delhi Belly is an important film in Indian cinema history because the success of this film will directly measure the immeasurable: how much have our minds really adapted to the next generation mentality.
And what all comedy filmmakers should learn from Delhi Belly is that Indians have brains not just while doing math but while watching movies too..
I wouldn't like to associate any known name in Bollywood given the content of this movie, Let alone an Amir Khan production.What appears smart and fresh initially soon starts to get a bit tiresome in the second half — especially the toilet humor and loud crude sounds of a character passing gas.Save your brain cells!.
Much before I watched Delhi Belly, I was told very categorically that the film will reduce to rubble the image of Aamir Khan, the producer, which he has very painstakingly and meticulously built over the years.
One thing I love about Bollywood is it manages to get laughs with having to resort to bad language - and long may it remain that way.The good:The plot is fast-paced and it gets down to business pretty much from the get-go.
The movie, over all, is just like any other comedy in BollyWood eg -Hera Pheri, Awara Paagal Deewana etc, except for the inferior abusive dialogues (Honestly, I think, me and my pals are a billion times funnier, than the sad abusive characters in this film, when it comes to creative abusing); This film is a FAIL, just like Dhobi Ghat.
This movie if full of shitty and absurd comedy.Awful acting Same old story I think IMDb should introduce 0 or -ve ratings for movie like this...Don't waste your time and money.I wonder how this movie has got 8.1 rating.This is not the right way of making an A rated movie..This movie has no class at all.
And i think Imran Khan should stop acting or the future of Bollywood is in disarrayso please don't watch this movie.
I believe even dogs are more responsible to clean their place before they sleep.In the most awful scene ever come across in cinema where a stool sample has been replaced by diamonds and the don checks it out his table is such an indescribable and detestable moment that if that particular time if you are having your pop corns, burgers and coke you will never dare to take them again..Recently one newspaper published that Delhi belly isn't an adult movie said by Aamir Khan.
This may not be the first time that a movie with filthy dialogs has been produced in India, but it is indeed the first time that such a lose attempt at humor is being applauded by critics.This movie can be summarized as follows: 1) Top names - Amir Khan/Imran Khan - to lure in audiences.2) Abuses hurled to make a comic attempt; Vijay Raaz is the only one who delivered it right.3) Rumbling tummies; another cheap comical attempt - not funny 4) A very predictive script that generates a ridiculous storyline5) Fast paced; though again, you can very well predict the next sceneDon't waste another 100 minutes of your life if you've not seen this already..
Delhi Belly is an ensemble piece with three male roommates, Tashi (Imran Khan [ Images ]), Nitin (Kunaal Roy Kapur) and Arup (Vir Das), and two almost wacky women in Tashi's life -- his rich fiancée Sonia (Shenaz Treasury) and a free-spirited colleague Menaka (Poorna Jagannath).
As the promos suggested, this film targets the multiplex audiences who are young at heart and don't find abusive language offensive.Most part of the movie deals with the three leads, Tashi (Imran Khan), Nitin (Kunal Roy Kappor) and Arup (Vir Das) who have their own problems to deal with but a mix-up between a stool sample and a bag of diamonds gets them involved with the smuggling mafia headed by a dangerous Somayjujlu played hilariously by Vijay Raaz and his comic henchman.To start of with, the film's director Abhinay Deo, comes all guns blazing and makes up for his previous miss.
The three lead actors , Imran Khan, Vir Das , Kunal Roy Kapoor have rendered crisp performances .Vijay Raaz has played a suave , droll villain - very amusing .The script, direction and editing is on the money.A refreshing & very 'unbollywood' like movie.
Beyond that, "Delhi Belly" is a pretty silly, predictable, action, gross-out comedy - basically an Indian "The Hangover." Tashi, Arup, and Nitin are underemployed, immature, twenty- something guys living like complete slobs in a shared apartment.
Where to begin,first of all i don't understand why people praise this movie.It is one of the most overrated movies of 2011.Aamir khan has created a brand for himself such that anything and everything he does has to be appreciated(no matter if ghajni was a rip off of memento) and if a person opposes his ideology,he stands to be ridiculed.Secondly,youth in urban cities are aping western culture and thus find abusive words such as s$$t and f$$k cool,this movie captures youth's pulse perfectly and every 2nd dialogue mouthed by the actors is either "balls" or "f$$k".Don't get me started on the acting front,imran khan sleepwalks in most of his movies and here also he does the same.He has the same deadpan expression throughout the movie but people and critics say that its his best performance till date.Female actors are only there to perform sex scenes but during their interview,they said it was part of the script(please explain to me how a cunnilingus scene is part of the script??) The jokes are awful,sorry but i don't find farting and toilet jokes funny.Overall,please don't watch this movie,u will be wasting your time..
Everyone says dehli belly is a super hit awesome movie , but after watching it i don't know why i'm having a different feeling, i think it's mediocre.
the songs are mind blowing but we wanted at least the best song to be featured in that,,,, but it didn't matter much i have the video Delhi Belly is a slick, madly crazy production that is mostly funny -- although the humour will more likely appeal to the 20-something and perhaps 30-something public school educated, English speaking, big city audience that the film targets through its previews, videos and playful songs (from a spoof on K L Saigal's voice, to one that may or may not allude to a curse word).
OMG...Delhi belly is one of the top best dark comedy movies ever created in bollywood...3 best friends of 3 different jobs trying to make up there living suddenly comes in contact with underground mafia...the movie showcases how they survive all the situations that they need to face one after the other ...a must watch movie......
Acting: Imran Khan, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Vir Das, Vijay Raaz and almost everyone associated has done well.Final Verdict: It is hilarious Adult comedy that will make you laugh your a** out every time you watch it!.
The story revolves around three roommates, journalist Tashi (Imran Khan), photographer Nitin Berry (Kunaal Roy Kapur) and cartoonist Arup (Vir Das), leading an unkempt and debt-ridden life in a shady apartment in Delhi.
Tell me when was the last time you actually found a bollywood movie genuinely humorous without the actors requiring "on-the-face comedy" to make you laugh (the laugh I know was full of sarcasm)?
[0/2] Story is shallow.It's Trainspotting revisited.After a few sequences the storyline becomes few quite predictable and second-half contains easy twist and turns.[1/2]Good actors but bad acting.Nothing was much expected from Imran so Vir Dass and Kunal Roy Kapur were expected to to bloom but story constrained them.Shenaz is irritating.Poorna as Menaka is a revelation.Vijay Raaz's acting is under utilized.[2/2]Music is awesome.Ram Sampath successfully managed to catch the tone of the generation."Bhag DK Bose" is better than all rock songs of "Rock On" combined.Chetan Shashital's Saigal blues worth a mention.[2/2]Aamir Khan's shadow maneuvered all over the film."Disco Fighter" sub-plot borrows heavily from the fake-trailers of Tarantino-Rodriguez movies.[1/2]Akshat Sharma's story is more or less from inspired from Trainspotting.Abhinav Deo direction is mediocre..
Its not only the tourists that get Delhi belly and live with the consequences.The camera work of Jason West was exceptional and the director did not waste endless minutes on introducing the audience to the characters or use elaborate editing and music cues and turn the film into a pantomime.
Shot on a meager budget, Aamir Khan would be laughing all the way to the bank as Delhi Belly seems all set to be ranked among this year's most memorable films.
Like the others of its kind, Delhi Belly too would work only in multiplexes and it's only for adults.Set in Delhi, Tashi (Imran Khan), Arun (Vir Das) & Nitin (Kunal Roy Kapur) are friends leading normal lives as a journalist, advertising illustrator and photographer respectively.
Delhi Belly is indeed the maiden attempt to elevate toilet humor to another level and probably it is dirtiest, filthiest comedy at its very best.Delhi Belly is a simple story about three roommates Nitin (Brilliant debut by Kunal Roy Kapoor),Tashi(Imraan Khan) and Arup(Vir Das) unknowingly stuck in a crime whereby a local goon (superb acting by Vijay Raaz) and his henchmen are after them to get back their diamonds and rest of the film is about the trio escaping as the youth anthem bhag bhag dk Bose scores in background.It is sheer genius of writer Akshat Verma to come up with a Guy Ritchie kind of script.
All the creatively outrageously funny songs in the album are used appropriately in the background.Coming to the acting department, casting director Adoore Mukherjee seems to know his job well selecting Kunal Roy Kapoor (who earlier directed the mind-blowing hinglish comedy "The president is coming") as Nitin who suffers a weak belly due to food poisoning.
Vijay Raaz is a fine actor and while watching his subtle villainous act one wishes to see more of him.The henchmen in Vijay Raaz's gang did a fine job specially the one who played "Bunty".The person enacting the landlord has superb potential in situational comedy films.Aamir Khan should be applauded again for taking an independent cinema to this elevating commercial level.
And having gotten that out of the way, one can get down to the serious business of enjoying the movie.After watching drivel like Double Dhamaal, with its sick humor and double entendres masquerading as "family" entertainment, Delhi Belly's irreverence and honesty is like a breath of fresh air.
Its humor is grown-up and not the usual puerile mush you see in Hindi movies; the dialog is unaffected, natural and hilarious; the relationships between people develop in a way that is unforced and casual.This is probably Imran Khan's best role to date - he plays Tashi, a journalist (complete with batty girlfriend) who unwittingly gets into a mix-up involving diamonds and a stool sample.
The only actor I like in the film is Vijay Raaz who has starred in many memorable films like Jungle, Shakti - The Power and Run. Verdict: a good time-pass film to watch while suffering from a Delhi Belly.
Empty bucket is waiting for filling water inside it and also three roommates are waiting for each other that someone will get up early and will fill the bucket.Finally bucket remains empty.And Nitin (Kunal Roy Kapoor)doesn't get water to clean himself in toilet and finally he cleans himself with juice placed inside fridge.Delhi Belly half of the movie is based on Nitin's loose motion problem.Arup (Vir Das) is great fan of disco fighter and buys ticket for his girlfriend for some kind of disco fighter movie.Even he waits for his girlfriend outside theater till completion of movie but his girlfriend doesn't join him.Tashi(Imran Khan)is good looking youngster and lazy too.Tashi has a girlfriend named Sonia(Shenaz Treasury)gives a diamond parcel to Tashi on behalf of her friend and Tashi gives parcel to Arup but Arup delivers it in wrong address.Whole second half is based on wrong delivery of this diamond parcel.Another character of this movie is Menaka(Pooran Jagannathan)is co-worker with Tashi.Menaka is a attracted towards Tashi and Tashi couldn't able to decide weather he loves her or not.Initially when I decided to to see Delhi Belly I knew that it's for adults when i saw it I was completely socked how much abusive language is used in it.Then I suddenly reminded of Hollywood movies only it happens there.This is first Indian adult abusive movie which I have ever seen.The whole credit goes to movie writer Akshat Verma.Also Abhinay Deo has done good work in direction.In acting category I was socked to see Kunal Roy Kapoor performance.Other actors have also done good work in movie.But I would like to say that Delly Belly is based on Nitin's "LOOSE MOTION"..
DB : BOLD Bollywood movie by Aamir Khan .DB is a BOLD , fast paced Action , Comedy and a Daring movie.Story Line : The journey of three roommates in the suburbs of Delhi when the delivery of a mystery package goes wrong, and they unknowingly become the potential prey of a ruthless gangster.
As if a whole generation was waiting for someone to give approval.Delhi Belly a movie about three friends and roommates caught in a perplexing situation is the first of a proper adult comedy from Bollywood (not India) in the category of movies like The Hangover (but still no nudity).
Vir Das and Imran Khan do full justice to their character while the scenes and situations throughout the movie are as original and new as it can get.
I will give 2.5/10 Aamir please come-up with great movies with different actors u have lots of options besides imran............PLOT It revolves around three roommates, Tashi (Imran Khan), Nitin Beri (Kunaal Roy Kapur) and Arup (Vir Das) leading an unkempt and debt-ridden life.
It's not at all for those who like to watch family-films, but for those, who can digest a Dark-Comedy, that comes in-tact with Maa-Behen Ki Gaalis.Abhinay Deo's 'Delhi Belly' scores big time in those 95-minutes it runs for.
