2 couples and how infidelity affects them personally. Irfan & Soha are one couple while Rahul Bose and Konkana play the other couple. Rahul Khanna and a new girl are in the mix too.
All 4 leads have done a very good job - with Konkana and Irfan being the stand out performers. Soha surprised me with a very strong performance and Rahul Bose has done these kind of roles quite a few times earlier too, he is competent.
They say the movie is a rip off - Husbands & Wives being the inspiration. I haven't watched the original but I enjoyed this one.
Again the one flaw that stands out, is the length in the 2nd half and the pace (it is slow but slows down further later on). All in all a good watch once for married couples.
Verdict - 3/5
ps - with a title like Dil Kabaddi - I expected a raunchy / vulgar movie stressing on sex but though the movie has a lot on sex in it's mind, it's not raunchy at all.

Movie Review - Maan Gaye Mughal-E-Azam
We 3 friends decided to go and watch this one and all 3 of us had heard bad reviews of this one. We all were skeptical,yet we decided to try it out.
So we walk into the theatre and settle down. The movie unfolds and we start laughing and we keep laughing through the movie. It's a silly movie that is trying to be silly, not cool. And thats what was fun.
Add to that the HOT Mallika Sherawat. In 2 songs the screen almost went up in smoke - she is lavicious. Paresh Rawal and an assortment of actors that look, act silly and the even sillier gags kept the movie going. The only sore point - Rahul Bose and his stiff acting.
It's all about a theater group and a RAW agent who gets involved with the wife of the lead actor of the theater group. And he has to save the country from the baddies too, for which, he asks help from this flop theater group.
Inane jokes, silly humour - the movie has everything that will not work BUT it worked for us. We have never laughed so much in a movie. The actors were all so brilliant, even in the most idiotic of scenes - it was a treat.
Verdict - 4/5. That is an unanimous verdict by the 3 of us. It is a very silly movie - period. Do not expect the earth and the moon, keep your thinking cap at home and you will laugh away.
