Siyapaa is a light-hearted romantic comedy.
Ali Zafar as Aman, the male lead of the movie is cute as a Pakistani boy friend
who is in London to meet his Punjabi girl friend Asha’s (Yami Gautam) family to
seek their permission for the marriage.
When the movie begins, it does give a feeling that movie is
going to be a laughter riot but somewhere it gets stretched.
Siyapaa (Chaos) begins the moment Aman comes out of the airport. Siyapaa
only increases as Aman reaches Asha’s family and the family discovers that he
is Pakistani. A series of events follow one after another. Kirron Kher as Asha’s
mother is loud, expressive and very vocal. Her anxiety as a mother is
believable. Grandfather (Vishwa Badola) does give some funny shots when he
keeps moving around the house.
Anupam kher as Asha’s father is having an extended cameo role in
the movie, I wish his role could have been redefined with more funny moments.
An actor of such a great caliber and comic timings seemed underutilized.
Asha’s sister Jia (Sara) is good in her bindaas attitude. The
dance sequence by Jia and Aman on “Nahi Maloom…” on table-top is captivating
and full of energy.
The Anti-Pakistani brother of Asha (Anuj Pandit) is natural in
his performance.
Director E Niwas along with Neeraj Pandey (Story / Screenplay) have
sensitively handled India Vs. Pakistan issue in a very light-hearted manner. A
scene is to be mentioned where a coin is flipped to decide who will beat up an
Englishman first – the Indians or Pakistanis, one doesn’t get to see the coin;
the coin is tossed and it is in the air and the very next moment Englishman is
beaten up.
Music by Ali Zafar is good. Palat Meri Jaan has been
appreciated. Chal buleya, a sufi song is also very melodious.
Total Siyapaa is
fun to watch - with Ali Zafar amidst ‘Total Chaos’.
