The jokes, a freakish marriage of insta-Hindi- shaayaris and romantic idealism, come out of left-field and they are over before you can even register them completely. The characters are all always saying something wrong or inappropriate, and their double-takes and recoiling in disbelief are what give the film its crazy tone. The script has an energy that seems to have sent all the actors over the rainbow and out they slide from the other end, with their characters' daze firmly fixed inside them.Īshwiny Iyer Tiwari is a Lady Preston Sturges, and this film's breathless comic atmosphere, where everyone has something to say, coupled with its combustible energy, suggest the best of Sturges' screwball comedies.Īs in a Preston Sturges movie, Bareilly Ki Barfi hardly breaks away from its wisecracks to offer you moralistic asides or stop to give itself heavyweight airs. That shot is so inspired and yet it rushes past you at such a precise clip that it becomes giddily beautiful.
At one point, Kriti Sanon's Bitti Mishra expresses confidence that her fan letter would receive a reply, and as she says Aayega, you can see her doing a little puppet dance.
