Do Dooni Chaar

Do dooni char is the story of a typical delhi based middle class family.The story tells how the family goes from a two wheeler to a four wheeler.The middle class film has been portrayed on the screen very authentically and in recent times if i can remember any movie which is closer to it was Khosla ka Ghosla. Neetu Singh made a come back in the movie with real life life partner Rishi Kapoor.
 
Here you have a maths teacher Santosh Duggal (Rishi Kapoor) who struggles to make ends meet for his family of four.His wife Kusum Duggal (Neetu Kapoor) manages the domestic arithmetic by keeping a tab on the household expenses. Daughter Payal Duggal (Aditi Vasudev) desires for an affluent lifestyle and son Sandy Duggal (Archit Krishna) secretly attempts to upgrade his standard of living by betting business.

The entire film runs on a single conflict (Duggals purchasing a car), yet at no point the narration gets monotonous.The film, at no point, gets depressing and director Habib Faisal keeps the proceedings lighthearted yet pragmatic throughout and also opts for a happy and achievable end. 

It’s a pleasure beyond measure to watch Rishi and Neetu play their real-life roles on screen.Both played their role very brilliantly on the screen.and the two teenage actors playing Rishi-Neetu’s son (Archit Krishna) and daughter (Aditi Vasudev) are also the gifted natural actors.They play their parts to perfection.

This is a well crafted movie after a very long time . So go for Do Dooni Chaar. I will give it a three and half out of five.
