Positives

* Rajpal Yadav's polished act. Rarely do we get to see such a genuinely affectionate character and an equally heartfelt performance.

* A story that takes a realistic and somewhat irreverent look at Bollywood.

* Lyrics and music that fit the story perfectly.

* Brisk pace and lack of silly subplots.

* Antara Mali's studious imitation of Madhuri Dixit's dances, costumes and mannerisms.

Negatives

* Antara Mali isn't too convincing as Chutki.

* The director (Chandan Arora) and the heroine fail to depict the protagonist's transformation effectively.

Verdict

A pleasant film that's definitely worth watching for its endearing story and Rajpal Yadav's fantastic performance.

Watch out for the review of Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon tomorrow.
