Movie review: Bheja Fry

PREVIEW




FULL MOVIE (though I'd prefer you rented this DVD to enjoy more appropriately)



This movie was worth my time, though I can perfectly understand why not many would share my views on this movie. Hence, apart from the preview, I thought of sharing with you, those portions of the movie that I enjoyed a lot, just in case it helps you connect with the movie the way I do. I don't expect to change everyone's opinion on the movie - just sharing tips, that's all.
