There are plenty of interesting characters to provide comic relief too. What were the 10 wishes he hoped would satisfy his soul before his demise? Does Vinay make it through to fulfill all his 10 wishes? Watch the movie to know.
Analysis:
Shashant Shah’s execution of the script is incredible, but the writer, Arshad Sayed's script could have been a tad bit compact. The music and soundtracks are utilitarian, albeit ‘Mumma’ is soothing to ears. The movie has many admirable moments, but few portions in the movie lag in captivating the audience. It is a pleasant story that will guide you through the simple plot, which is treated with a lot of sensitivity. This is one of the movies that will leave you with a rare combination- -smile on your face and tears in your eyes.
Star Performances:
Delivering a matchless performance, Vinay Pathak plays the role of a kind-hearted soul who longs for love, friendship and some nuance in his life; and he does it oh-so-perfectly! His flamboyant presence on the screen is enough to lighten your day's worries. Â Characters played by

What’s there?
1. Â The movie portrays the emotions of an average man really well. You have a good rapport with the person and the pain he goes through.
2. The pace of the film does mitigate in the second half, but some brilliant acting and poignant dialogues make up for its frailty.
3. The script is pristine and brusque.
What’s not there?
1. The second part of the movie turns pale, due to its slow pacing and loosely coupled screenplay.
2. Â Although the message sent out was brilliant, it could have been well-thought and a little more imaginative.
3. Â The film has an erratic momentum and not all chapters are as captivating. That dilutes the impact to a degree!
Verdict:
A heart-warming and pleasant performance encompassed in a positive storyline. It can be categorized as a good watch.
