Teen Thay Bhai




Finally managed to catch "teen thay bhai" and am certainly glad I did. Thanks to the "multiplex culture" small budget movies manage to make a big screen presence alongside the mega-budget ones.

The movies is about 3 brothers (as the name suggests!)played by Om Puri, Deepak Dobriyal and Shreyas Talpade. The estranged brothers are brought together by the death of their grandfather. The trio finds out that there is a will left behind their grandfather, dividing the property amongst them. With a tiny "conditions apply" asterisk! The 3 of them have the spend the death anniversary in a desolate bungalow, for no less than 3 years! You can very well imagine what follows next!

Om Puri is brilliant, hands down a fabulous actor and completely fits the bill of the eldest brother Chixie Singh, who is struggling with his garments business and the with the larger issue of getting his daughters married. Deepak Dobriyal plays a quack dentist, whose solution to all dental problems is simple: tooth extraction! But my favorite of the 3 is Shreyal Talpade who plays the youngest brother Fancy Singh. A wannabe actor with a limited quota of luck and brains! All 3 come together for a fantastic comedy.

Very good for a few laughs. Leave-ur-brains-at-home comedy!
