‘Nautanki Saala’ is not another slapstick comedy that uses every trick in the book to make you laugh. On the contrary, the humour here is tailored for spectators who love new-age cinema. At the same time, comedy is serious business and very few film-makers have the knack of making people chuckle/giggle at the right places/episodes and Rohan gets it absolutely right all through the first hour. To give the credit where it's due, Rohan steps into a new terrain with ‘Nautanki Saala’ but the plot as well as the situations are so unfussy and uncomplicated and the characters so convincing [and timid too!] that you start taking to the goings-on without much struggle. The film never gets into the serious zone or melodramatic, but remains lightweight all through, which is a plus. To conclude we can say, Rohan has cleverly adapted and modified the French film to suit the Indian sensibilities, which works exceedingly well for the Indian spectator. The camaraderie between Ayushmann and Kunaal is magnificent and the best part is, the roles are clearly divided. On the whole, ‘Nautanki Saala’ is uncontaminated, witty and amusing, offers an interesting premise with plenty of good laughs. A lightweight fare that caters to cineastes with an appetite for contemporary cinema, this movie ought to be on your to watch list for sure!
