Review: Sadda Adda Is A Pleasant Surprise


New Delhi: A walk in hopes of a sex-comedy classes after taking a look at the poster of 'Sadda Adda. But be prepared to be pleasantly surprised!

The film is a lot of fun. Yes, the actors are new and inexperienced, some sequences of the film are not necessary - but the director and writer Muazzam Start situations brings to the screen in 'Sadda Adda' - are very real.

The story revolves around six guys crammed into a house with 2 bed rooms they call "Sadda Adda '- Samir, Kabir, Irfan, Rajat, Jogi and Safal. Each of the boys have their own battles to fight, to pursue own dreams and even a little love for the hard times bearable. they fight for the rent in their struggle to make things fall into place - and clearly, like most true stories - not easy.

Samir (Karan Sharma) is an actor who manages to bag a role in a Hollywood film to be shot in India - but loses everything when she falls for the rich and sexy Shreya (applicants). Shreya (Shaurya Chauhan) love their drag racing and feel that you have to worry about Samir for their lives belong to them. 

Irfan (Bhaumik Sampat) works in an architectural firm where Riddhima (Kahkkashan aria), her colleague that she did not want a boyfriend, so he could beat Irfan and has a boss who believes that Muslims are not trustworthy and however Irfan steals planes project to make it pass as their own. Rajat (Rohin Robert) wants a white-collar work in the U.S. and his father gives him a year to find your way or returning to the roads and houses, but all the "Jats" do.

Kabir (Kunal Panth) an Aquaguard salesman door to door in the hope of making something bigger - but the work never stops to get their way. Safal (Parimal Alok) is the "shudh" Hindi-speaking Bihar IAS aspirant - do not drink, do not smoke and heads for the rest of debaucherous as roommates - 'Paapi!'. Jogi (Rohit Arora) - the youngest of the group has the best business sense and has no qualms about taking care of the house while the other five are out.

Their lives come to a standstill when Safal commits suicide after failing to clear the Civil Services exams in their last attempt. But life goes on - as Samir encountered in his career, Rajat left New Jersey, while Jogi Kabir takes over door to door "Aquaguard" Hawking, Kabir is still seeking employment, as Irfan Kabir is a pause - it is fired. When real - real people.

The movie tagline goes - The only thing that will stop you from fulfilling your dreams is you. The 5 figure this out the hard way – as real people do. The new faces are not instant star material – but they are endearing. The 6 boys steal the show over the women who try to show their ‘oomph’ with scanty clothes. The best part about the movie is how real it comes across to be – the audience will identify with the boys, their falls and their successes. 

The music of the film has been given by Shamir Tandon, Band of Boys and Ramji Gulati – and the song ‘Sarphira Hai’ is beautiful. 

5 years down the line – the boys are successful and happy – but as Jogi quotes Donald Trump in the movie – the success might seem to have come over night – but no one knows how long the night was. Believable? Definitely. Catch the movie with friends – one may never know which episode of their lives has been pulled out and placed on screen. A good effort by the cast and crew – and clearly they have a lot of potential. The acting, the over all feel of the movie could use some more ‘sleekness’ but it is fun to watch.
