Delhi Belly - One of a kind.

If at all there can be a tagline for a movie, that is proximate to the movie's content, it is Delhi Belly. "Shit Happens" and how! Delhi Belly is by far India's most daring, brassy, blasphemous, audacious comic film till date and the distinctly raw content, is another first in Indian screen. Delhi Belly belongs to the same genre as The Hangover, Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels. It is the paramount culture shock for Indian audiences and one movie that can come close to a desi version of Guy Ritchie's Snatch . It is a rollicking, boisterous riot featuring three hapless youngsters who happen to be associated with the print media.

Delhi Belly is surely not a film that will appeal to pan-Indian audience, but youngsters surely are going to lap it up. The film largely works because of the tight script and taut screenplay and lurid dialogues that go well with the proceedings. The usage is so brilliant that you end up laughing your ass out. Almost an hour of this 96 minute film takes place at a typical weak, dirty 'Delhi' apartment of Tashi (Imran Khan), Arup (Vir Das) and Nitin (brilliantly played by Kunal Roy Kapoor). The story kicks of when Tashi's girl friend Sonia (Shenaz Treasurywala) an Air hostess, orders Tashi to drop off a parcel she's promised to deliver as a favor for her friend. The girl without her knowledge, has been used as a messenger by a diamond-smuggling circle, and all hell breaks loose when the package is mistakenly swapped by Arup and the don't-care-a-damn gangster, played flawlessly by Vijay Raaz, receives a fecal matter sample instead, belonging to Nitin who is down with a case of 'Delhi Belly'. This is gross, but his reactions when suffering at the loo are a riot.

Added to these unique taxonamy of characters is the landlord of the house who is caught when visiting an escort and Menekha (Poorna Jagannathan) a journo at Times Of India, who is 'labelled' as a les only to be revealed in the subsequent scene that she is trying to detach herself from a failed marriage.

The car chases at night involving Meneka's ex-husband and Tashi, the hotel room sequences have a generous dose of irony and irreverence. However, the stand out portion of the film is their antics with the Bhurka when trying to steal the diamonds back from a Broker, and the initial escapade of the three guys from their home. The 'Bhaag D.K.Bose' bgm takes these scenes to a new level.

Delhi Belly is an uncomplicated yet compact story and full credit to Akshat Verma for the script that has a lot of scope for crass, class, blasphemy and a plot with enough twists to make 96 minutes well spent. The performances of all the characters, especially Kunal Kapoor, Vir Das and Vijay Raaz are exemplary. The language of  modern day youngsters has been captured perfectly. Delhi Belly dares to show the grey side of the youth in India today that is not as saccharine coated as shown in majority of the films so far. This has not only added a feel of realism to the film but allowed the most crucial and crude scenes in the film to be captured in an uncannily humorous manner, making ways for numerous ha-ha-ha moments.

All the songs have been used as background tracks and it certainly has enhanced the proceedings of the movie. Slick editing and ingenious dialogues that are uninhibited and rich in profanity work in favour of the movie.

On the whole, Delhi Belly is an unique, shocker of a movie that contains enough frenzy to make the audience have a ball. Full dhamaal. Full fun. Period.
