'dil kabbadi' - let the games begin!

Woody Allen is my absolute Guru where quirky, whacky human humor is concerned - never thought I would watch an adaptation of a movie of his & find the same insane, WA brand of funny, that too in a Bollywood film! Well, well, wonders never cease to happen!
But since Irfan Khan happened to hindi films, we get to see this wonderful actor play the complex, twisted & guilt-torn Macbeth of Maqbool & then.... this indescribable genre of comic acting which is unapologetic, perfectly timed, honest & so damn funny - even though he plays this two-timing rogue of a husband, with no morals or scruples, you can't help loving him!
Ashok got it right when he described the movie as 'refreshing & un-clichéd' (is there a word like that???) - where couples play this mad musical chairs, with no malice, with a lot of humor, which is so pleasant to watch.
If u notice anyone apart from Irfan Khan, it's Konkona Sen Sharma - not bad, Mrs Iyer! Love the 'passive aggressive’ woman of today’ role she essays with such ease!
I am very fond of Rahul Bose - he represents this metro, cool, urbane Bollywood which is such a welcome change!
Surprise is Soha who manages to hold her own in the company of such fine artistes – some weird hairstyles, no doubt, but still, her progress card would report – ‘Improving!’
Rahul Khanna is such a charming, handsome dude, just like his dad – in a disappointingly short role, he delivers a competent performance.
But my milk of human kindness in doling out all this praise runs dry for Payal Rohtagi or whatever, who is supposed to be sizzling ‘n sexy – c’mon Bollywood, u can do better than that!
A Sunday night well spent at the game – of the ‘dil kabbadi’ kind!
