On a fine Sunday night, my friends returned home with Lucky.
The ride back home, they all clenched hard to their valuables while Lucky talked and teased nonchalantly. Their faces were reluctant to ease. They looked horrified. Then suddenly there was an outbreak of a hysteric laughter. Lucky disappeared. I was back. But the movie talk continued and so did the Punjabi beats till about dawn and until we all ran out of luck for a punctual, routine and dutiful Monday morning.
Oye Lucky Lucky Oye is a movie about a Superchor. He is as ordinary as any man on the road. He is as calm as a cow. And most importantly, he is a thief with a charm, with a style, with flair so natural that he seems heroic. He will steal everything and anything right under your nose and you would not know it. I would rather go on to say, that Lucky is no less than Bond. He is the guy with brilliant schemes; he is elusive to catch; he is always chased and he gets what he wants.
From the makers of khosla ka ghosla comes yet another engaging film. Dibakar Banerjee portrays a real story with such detail that the audience is forced to get absorbed. From the dialect, to the inter-personal relationships, to the situational misery and humour, it is all too easy to relate. The film keeps a strong Punjabi flavour intact. Manjot Singh, who plays young Lucky, contributes to the realism of the film which is rather too beautifully extended by Abhay Deol. The cast is refreshing. Manu Rishi plays Bangali, who immediately became one of my favourite characters in the film.
Oye Lucky Lucky Oye is a film for all. It doesn’t have a plot that is a masterpiece. But the execution and the entertainment are worth applauding. It’s a film very rich in its flavour. Don’t miss it!
