Delhi belly is a modernized flick, with a cliched storyline, stylishly depicted characters. The style is heavier than the contents and actual traits of the characterization. The film is made boldly surpassing traditional norms, like indians beating up whites or sexuality. Mostly the characters speak in English as if they are in UK not in India. The romance theme is not love rather passionate one, imbibing the sexual flavors though not explicitly shown, except the kissing scenes. The songs doesn't match with the characters at all, with the language and the entire set up. The film in total doesn't appeal to Indian soil at all, especially the Delhites. It may appeal to some of the west but why would they care for such cliched collection of events ?
Is Imran Khan an actor ? He shouldn't act at all. Just staying focused on camera emotionless is not called acting. Even the camera works failed to bring out his character to screen. Performance wise Vijay Raaz is good, gives the feel of Indian hooligan. Others are average. The western score behind felt nothing more than average. It tried to be pristine and serene which was well done but it missed the originality and depth instead. The script however was well joined.
The twist of the film where faeces are exchanged instead of drugs actually felt disgusting. It was supposed to be comic ? Why did the director extended that issue throughout the film ? It actually felt disgusts in extension. Though the film had potential, with a scope of technical opportunity but it didn't happen at all. It simply paced forward with nothing interesting and engaging. Just felt like below the belt film. Delhi belly is below the belly. A 40 on scale of 100.
