Synopsis – A man embarks on a road trip to find his lost love.

My Take – Finding Fanny is not a regular Bollywood film, it’s for a very niche audience. The film comes across like a breath of fresh air amidst the flood of racy commercial entertainers but then, it is also a subject that will appeal only to the thinking audience who seek intelligent entertainment . The first half goes on a lighter note with elements of comedy, some romance and also some bold scenes.

The interval bang was good and the second half again has comic moments, but this where the films soul lies, that humans die love does not. All actors have done a fabulous job. My favourite of the five is Pankaj Kapoor, who didn’t even had a necessary role as per screenplay, is just outstanding! Naseerudin Shah is very lovable and funny. Deepika is also good but she shines in narrating the story. Arjun Kapoor is revelation. He should try more roles like this. And finally, Dimple Kapadia. She should be applauded for accepting such kinda role that not everyone can play and she is fantastic.

This is one of those films which is about journeys, self-discovery, life and more. Easily on of the best Bollywood film of 2014(after Queen). Watch it for its delicious characters.
