ThiefHott Too much of everything

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Chrysanthepop While the concept may not be entirely novel and writer/director Vinay Shukla seems to have sincere intentions, 'Mirch' suffers from poor writing. There are four stories withing a story (thus in total five). While I liked that the women were portrayed as strong and dominant, the men are almost portrayed as dumb caricatures.The first story that revolves around a struggling screenwriter and his girlfriend who try to convince a producer to make a movie from his script. While this story is halfbaked, the characters are very poorly developed. Moreover, the Tisca Chopra track in the end is completely pointless and looks forced. The following two stories are more like folktales. While the second segment is well executed, the songs were a bit excessive. The love scenes in the third segment look staged and lacked sensuality but the art direction is wonderful. The fourth segment is pretty much the typical bored metropolitan housewife having an affair with an artist story and it is unnecessarily stretched. Similarly, the last one is needlessly extended and ruined by Boman Irani's irritating performance.Arunodhay Singh is very good in the second and third segment and he hams it up in the first and fourth segment. Konkona Sen Sharma and Raima Sen are first rate. While Konkona performs naturally, Raima shows tremendous growth as an actress. Ila Arun is equally fun to watch. Shahana Goswami too does a terrific job even though her character wasn't properly fleshed out. Rajpal Yadav does a decent job and Shreyas Talpade goes over the top.While I liked that 'Mirch' tries to tell the story of smart and dominant women who definitely know how to manipulate their men, it's mostly been let down by poor writing, editing and average execution. Which is a pity because it had a lot of potential.

roshansony The movie is wonderfully fast paced, witty, exotic, well shot and absolutely delightful. The four stories, where four strong sensual female protagonists outwit their spouses/lovers are just simply hilarious. Raima Sen in a very different sensual role. Konkona Sen manages to portray some amount of sensuality. Arunoday Singh is okay...good body though. Shahana Goswami will go places.The first story which features Rajpal Yadav, Raima Sen, and Arunoday Singh is beautifully shot. The second, featuring Konkona Sen and Prem Chopra and the ubiquitous Arunoday Singh has a brief but very hilarious performance by Illa Arun. The third, which has Shreyas Talpade, is a little bit of a drag, although the wit at the end had me howling. Shreyas is hammy and fake. The fourth story featuring Boman Irani and Konkona is also good -- but this is not Boman at his best.The movie is just eminently watchable.

vghosh79 Vinay Shukla has done an excellent task of weaving separate stories together on a common theme of suspicion and lust. Although the theme of all the stories portrayed in the film are innate human desires, the portrayal is subtle and never relapses into anything similar to the traditional ribaldry that marks mainstream Bollywood films (aka dances with towel between legs or songs with incantations of 'jawani'). The cast is powerful, and lives up to its promise, although the second half of the movie loses its Woody-Allenesque feel and becomes much too dark, and even predictable. Overall, a good watch, and one of the few recent movies that tickle the humor, as well as get the audience thinking about the frailty of human relationships.
