Mukhtiar Chadha is yet another punjabi comedy, and by now you would think the punjabi audience would want something more unique and novel to watch, rather than the same done to death genre.But thats not the case as even good films like Shareek which are of a different genre fail at the box office in Punjab. However what sets this film apart from other Punjabi comedies is that it stars superstar Diljit Donsaj, this man is easily the most popular actor and singer in Punjab, he has a huge fan following. This can be seen through his box office recored,he has about 5 of the highest grossing Punjabi films ever under his belt, and they all released from 2012 to 2015. Them being Jatt and Juliet,Jatt and Juliet 2, Punjab 1984, Disco Singh, and Sardar Ji, he hasnâ??t delivered a flop for the last 3 years. And I can guarantee you Mukhtiar Chadha will be a hit too. He is one India's new superstars.So how Ready is for Salman Khan. how Lingaa is for Rajinkanth, how Gabbar Singh was for Pawan Kalyan, is how Mukhtiar Chadha is for Diljit Dosanj. Meaning the film has no real story, but the film is made to please fans of Diljit Donsaj, who will eat up his comic act, his screen presence is undeniably amazing, he is hilarious, and one can tell he was born to be a star, he has that quality. So for me being a fan of Mr.Dosnaj I lapped the film, and throughly enjoyed his comic act, and hilarious antics, and most Punjabiâ??s who step into the theatre will know what there getting into also, but for the rest the film holds a beware tag, because it is another predictable mindless, but funny comedy film.
Story wise Mukhtiar Chadha is a â??Purani Dilliâ?? guy whose only desire in life is to get rich, by hook or by crook. He is so business-oriented, he doesnâ??t even spare his neighbour Dimple from his shrewd tactics. He finds out Dimple flunked in her exams, so he starts extorting money from her to not tell her father.But soon Mukhtiar finds himself caught up in a property deal gone wrong with some goons, what happens next forms the rest of the plot.
Acting wise Diljit Donsaj is at his comic best, as the crook Delhi wala Mukhtiar Chadha. He is starting to repeat himself on screen now though,and other than 1984 Punjab, he is doing the same kind of roles. But I must admit, his screen presence can match up to the biggest superstars in India, he is just so entertaining. Other than Diljit, Yashpal Sharma is the only one who impresses on screen, his way of reciting poems is hilarious. Watch out for the scene were him and Diljit go back and forth battling it out in in poem battle. He is a comic villain.
Mukhtar Chadha is a film were nothing but entertainment is given utmost importance. The film has gags, jokes, and different comic scenes happening at every second, the audience will not get bored for a minute. The second half does drag though a bit till the climax. But one does realize the film has a very lazy story and screenplay. Its a film that just follows a typical delhi guy, and the comedy revenge angle is weak. But this nothing Diljit fanâ??s will mind, because the star is full form and they have came to see him. The film does get the Delhi lingo, and Delhi culture correct in the film, the characters and especially Chadhaâ??s feels like he is straight from the capital city. The film was also shot nicely,had decent songs, and I enjoyed the climax terrorist friend angle, and the terminator gun thing, those scenes were the films highlight. However I despised the massy action it didnâ??t suit Diljit.
Overall the regular punjabi family audience will enjoy Mukhtiar Chadha, because they are used to films of these kind, mindless punjabi comedies. And if your a Dosanjh fan I don't need to say anything you will watch the film regardless of any review. Other people who are wanting to watch there first punjabi film, if you don't like mindless comedies, try something like Punjab 1984.
